Default Trailer pulling

I just bought a fifth wheel travel trailer that weighs 11,464 pounds dry weight and will be pulling it with a 90w250 three speed auto,dana 70 rear end,airbags and no intercooler.I dont think I will have any problems with power (cummins) but was wondering if the frame and axle can take it? any advice would be great! THANKS IN ADVANCE!!

I can't see any issue with the axle or the frame as long as it is in good shape and not like some of the trucks I have seen around this area that are rust buckets on the under side. If yoou don't have an external trans cooler I might suggest such an up grade though.
