Thanks everybody.
My truck is a 2000 Dodge QCLB with 19.5 wheels and tires, level kit(springs), Traction bars, add a packs and overload camper springs, over sized sway-bar, bilstiens, 500 plus HP,3rd gen brakes, Allison 5speed transmission, and an exhaust brake.
I'm probably going to end up with a Eaglecap 995, although I would like the 1160. I'm pretty sure that the 1160 is really pushing it. Do you think I'll be OK with a 995? I have already had over 5000 in the bed.
I may be towing a 2000 lb. boat(with trailer) from time to time.
I switched from a 2004 Dodge 5.9 2500 SRW to a dually in advance of trading up from a 3,400 Citation 9-6 to a EC 995. At the time I felt the 2500 (with tembrens only) was fairly maxed out with the Citation. The fully optioned 995 with solar, full LPG, and 2 batts tips the scales at about 4,350. With the dually I've run for over 4 yrs with only tembrens (with good service) and sway stops (to engage the overloads), but due to rough stretches of hwy 5, I've recently added 2 leafs to each rear main pack, so now in a 4500 territory. Quite honestly, I wouldn't want to put the weight of a 995 on my older 2004 Dodge 5.9 SWR 2500...JMHO.
