With the information you have given, I would do it and not worry a bit about it.
Hell, I'm about to haul 3,000 pounds of rock in the bed of my new truck tomorrow (wrapped up on a pallet). My payload is 3,000 pounds, but my wife and I will be in the cab, so the weight police would remind me that our weight comes off of that 3,000 pound payload, meaning we are exceeding our payload capacity. We are hauling the rock 10 miles so I'm fine with doing it, weight police be damned.
Yes, we will be over our manufacturer's recommendations. :E
The more you tow/haul, the more comfortable you get doing stuff like that.
I wouldn't go across the Rockies with your setup, but I would tow it 60 miles and not think twice.
