Unless you have the 3:92 rear end that trucks towing capacity isn’t 11,000 pounds. With a 3:21 it’s about 8200-8320 pounds. With the 3:21 your payload will be about 1700 pounds. Your combined gross vehicle weight is about 13,900 pounds. If that camper weighs 8700 pounds and you have the 3:21 you are WAY over limit.
I have a 19 ram rebel with a 3 inch on 33 3.92 and I pull a 30.6ft about 6000lbs with ez really no reason to pull almost double my only thing is I’m debating on getting 295/70 18-34.3 or getting 285/75 18 34.8 I’m just worrying that the 35 will be to much for the 5.7
WD hitch when over 5k but really you should not tow frequently within 25% of the max towing capacity of any rig. At that point the safe and proper towing method would be to upsize your rig, so in your case where it is used to tow daily a 3/4 ton would be the best set up for you. You will have the added power for various size hauls (2500/3500 has 6.6 HEMi or 6.7 Cummins), not to mention the increased axle size which will give you long term reliability and strength. The other factors are rear end gearing, transmission gearing and tire size. There is a lot that goes into towing than just the final GCVW and TOW numbers. 1/2 ton rigs are still best suited for light towing of small boats, snowmobile trailers, small campers (20' range) and such. Just my input, not right not wrong, just have several years in the business of trucks/hauling.
im a little slow so go easy on me. but were you saying that along with the weight distributing bars and the airbags keeping it perfectly level it would be alright to tow or were you saying under no circumstance a 1500 should be pulling 8700 pounds?
I got a 32ft 2021 sportsmen and pull it with my 07 ram 1500 I’m in nv and love taking it to California drives fine got airlift as well and weight distribution bars with brake controller of course
