What engine do you have? I'm thinking, 4.7?
3900# shouldn't be a problem even with 3:55's
I've towed more than that (occasionally close to 6k) with my Hemi and 3:55's. Yeah, I couldn't keep up with my friend's Cummins, and the acceleration wasn't spectacular, but I didn't feel the need to run out and spend $1500 on gears either.
Not telling ya what to do, 3900# isn't that heavy.

They should, although, seeing as you have a 4x4, you have to get gears for the front too, unless you don't care about 4WD. Here is a link for a kit with 4.11 gears for the front and rear, with installation kits.

This gear change will make a day and night difference while towing and will undoubtedly extend the life of you transmission as well...
DO NOT put gears only in the rear of a 4x4. If you do, at least pull the front driveshaft, otherwise, if you even accidentally bump it into four wheel drive, the flatbed driver will have to go back and get your tranny and transfer case off the street after he hooks your truck up!!!
