one thing that hasn't changed much is a 3/4 ton trucks rawr payload which will be carrying most if not all of it.
My old long gone '90 450 2500 chevy 2wd long bed had a 60xx rear axle/tire load rating. If I remember right the truck rear axle weighed in the 2650-2700 lb range leaving around 3100-3300 lb in the bed payload.
The 6.5 diesel sits on the front axle so not much difference in rear axle payload.
Keep in mind my truck was current back then and new springs/running gear. A '94 is 27 years old and probably the springs have flattened out some.
