Increase your Ram's Payload by 50%

Max payload is 1,417. Which is due to the wimpy coil springs Dodge has decided to go with instead of leaf springs. I have the same rear axle in the rear as the tradesman HD, which is rated at 3K payload due to having leaf springs. The axle can easily handle what it is being given.


One thing I find odd- Any dealer who looks up my vin (so far 2) states I have 10,000# of towing capacity. Ram Truck's site states I only have 8,000# and change. Any ideas why the discrepancy?
