It should all be in your owner’s manual. I have a 02 1500. If you have a 1500 and do not have a manual, list all of your specs and I will look it up for you.

That info should be printed on a sticker usually located on the drivers side door near the latch mechanism. Sometimes they are on on other doors, or the inside of glove box door.
Should have wheel & tire info, etc.

Exact, you have the info on wheels and tire pressure, but nothing on my truck about weights...
I did not look in the glove box, Thanks for the tip.

My label lists weights for front and rear axles on the left, and GVWR on the right side...
