Determining Tow Capacity of 2007 Dodge Ram 2500 Diesel

Question

Question:

I am having trouble finding specifically the fifth wheel/gooseneck towing capacity for this vehicle. Is there any chance you know that information? Also, if I add airbags to the suspension does that add to the towing capacity or just help ease the wear on the vehicle? If it adds to the towing capacity, do you know by how much? Thanks so much!

According to what I found for your 2007 Dodge Ram Crew Cab 2500 diesel your truck has a capacity of 9,400 lbs. Adding air bag kits to your vehicle like the # AL88295 will help it carry it's max capacity as safely as possible but will not add any additional capacity.
