What do you think they are towing at those numbers??? Sure as HE!! aint no 5er!

Let's see some SRW SAE tow ratings with 20% 5er pin weight ratings. BTW MOST full timers with a tandem axle DRV are in excess of 20% pin. I am at 25% being 5,750#.

RAM does go by J2807 with their tow ratings. Wonder why GM has a low 23k rating for their DRW??? It's because the Allison can't hold up to more weight in the SAE tests. They made a sorry excuse they felt people really did not need to tow more than that. Wonder what they say when the new trucks come out with the new 10 speed and their ratings are magically right up there with RAM and Ford???

The 2015 SRW RAM GCWR was 23,500#.

Look up RAM towing guide it states SAE J2807 right at the top.
