Tow ratings aren't on the door jamb. Dodge's are almost impossible to find. The Ford and GM ones I have seen are in dealer brochures, and fleet ordering catalogs.

The rating varies, with engine, trans, 2wd/4wd, axle ratio, and other optional equipment (coolers, HD suspension, etc). The tongue/pin weight goes toward the GVWR. Odds are you will run into licensing and insurance snags before you overload the truck. That's the case here anyway... 4600kg (11,000#) limit before you need an upgraded driver's license and annual inspections.
