Default Towing questions

I'm thinking of getting a travel trailer that weighs 4700 pounds unloaded. I just wanted to make sure my truck can pull it. My truck is a 99 quad cab short bed with a 318 automatic and 355 rear end. I will have a stabilizer hitch installed. I have seen different tow ratings between 3200 and 7000 pounds so I'm not sure what to believe.

Thanks

2 or 4 wheel drive?

Looks like somewhere between 7 and 8K pounds. I think you'll be fine.
