Looking at KZ Durango Gold G359RET: UVW 10640, dry hitch 2190, dry axle 8450, NCC 2960, GVWR 13600.
Hitch is a Reese 20k slider.
I think you'll be just fine with that setup. Probably over GVWR, but within your axle weight ratings. I'm not an expert on GM trucks, but I would bet your truck is identical to a SRW 3500 aside from a softer rear spring pack, which Timbrens or airbags would address (if necessary). I don't think the payload sticker means much on 3/4 ton diesels because the GVWR is restricted by class, but tire and axle ratings are important.
I was at 6750 on my rear axle of my 3500 RAM SRW with a trailer the grosses 1200 less on our way to Arizona. These new trucks are heavy!

Chris, your issue is not the 5er pin weight it is all STUFF you carry in the two Diamond Plate tool boxes in your TV bed.
