My short box crew cab has an unladen rear axle weight of 3470 lbs with only the driver in the cab. The rear spring rating is 7230 on short and long box trucks (2017 to 2020) so a pin weight of about 3800 lbs is about the limit of the rear axle.
Front axle rating rating is 5600 and my unloaded truck is at 4750 lbs (including driver and fuel)
So with a 3700 lb pin plus driver and passenger my truck would be very close to 12070 lbs with the rear axle loaded to its rated maximum weight. I suppose a lighter pin and more passengers would get a little closer to a 12,400 gvw.
I am sure you are including the 5th wheel hitch and other things in the bed in the 3800 pin weight number, right?
My rear axle was 3760 ready to tow and the truck was at 8900.
