New here not sure where to post this question
Either on the door sticker or in the manual. One of the guys on here posted the posted the capacities for all the different engine, tranny, body combinations. Search the forum you might be able to find it that way.
Info for you while you shop:
Maximum tow rating with ALL the recommended equipment from Chrysler is 9250 lbs. That's on a 2wd, Hemi.
Upgrading to aftermarket 4.56 gears will increase this capacity by 1000 lbs...

I had just assumed on 8500#'s for towing capacity. You still have to take into account cargo on the truck as well. I would never tow anything heavier than that with a 1/2ton truck.
Overweight trailer can be ticketed and dropped as Hammer stated, but if you were to get into an accident, it's more than just ticket time. Arrest time, especially if someone gets hurt.

Surprised no one has said it... but here: http://www-5.dodge.com/towing5/D/home.html
I wouldn't tow over #10,500 with my 2500 (my gears put me at #8500, I change gears I get to #10,500).
YOU guys are NUTS. Proper tow rig would be a Cummins, 3500, with tow package, and duallies with that (proper gears as well). Then you will have your 10% margin (or close) for towing something that big. Absolutely DO NOT TRY THAT with a 1500 (air bags, gears or not).
