With a lifted truck and larger tires, pretty much all components are stressed more than stock. That means that the real towing capacity is reduced. I doubt that somebody here will be able to put a number on it though.
One thing that's specifically stressed are the brakes, they need to work much harder to stop the heavier wheels. And brakes are much needed for stopping heavy trailers, even if the trailer does have brakes. A 7" lift is quite a bit.
