Since you lack an upper overload spring, I would start with adding one. My F250 had the same suspension as the F350 and required upper and lower StableLoads to carry a 4000 lb TC and Firestone airbags to be able to tow an 8000 lb enclosed trailer while carrying the TC. About 7000 lbs on the truck rear axle with the TC and 8000 lbs with the trailer also hitched.
One the Rams, there isn't upper overload perch's. They're welded on, and they didn't weld any on the 3/4T's. I guess one could get a set welded on later or bolt on, but I'd be weary of drilling holes in the frame. Upper overloads are pretty much a no-go with Ram 3/4T's.
Same w/GM 3/4 tons...that's where the SS's come in...
