Going to get a new Ram Have a 2012 3500 Dually going to go to a 3500 crew cab 8 ft bed SRW, is the HO worth the 3 thousand upgrade over the standard cummins. I have the high output on my dually but torque is 800 # so is it worth it or not. Also have a 4:10 rear end on existing but thinking 3.73 on new one would like a little better mileage when not towing. Have loved the dually for pulling our 36 ft TT but going to go to a fifth wheel and not anything huge usually just me and wife with grandkids visiting some times. SRW will make daily driving a little easier.
Well a new 2021 Ram 3500 SRW LB will have a 12,300# GVWR, the same as your 2012 has. Going from a TT to a 5er, how big are you looking for a fiver, pin weight on anything over about 15,000# will put you at or near that GVWR.
HO/Aisin most of the upgrade cost is the Aisin, love the way our tows and shifts. Eight years of driving a DRW I would stick with DRW and the 14,000# GVWR that comes with it.
