So by your logic the newer truck should be squatting like crazy with 2500lbs of tools leveraged a full 8ft off the back of the bed. This was before I added air bags as well.

I installed them recently but have yet to use them. I fully expect to put a few pounds in them if needed when hauling the mini-ex plus the tool load.
I just ordered a new PJ low-pro bumper pull dump trailer 7x16 14k lbs. I fully expect to see 2000lbs of tongue weight on occasion. I'll post up a pick with it in 6 weeks or so when it comes in. That should put the truck over the 4779lb payload rating by a few hundred pounds.
