I cant seem to find them at all. Im not sure I have facts right.
Rig is a 1999 2500HD laramie quad with towing package. 5.9L Diesel with 4sp auto and 3.5 rear end.
Owners manual says Club/Quad 2WD 2500 GCWR is 18000 max trailer 12000 with a GVWR of 8800 (which mine says in the door it is) but it lists the 4.10 on the auto, my hood says 3.5
So Im confused

Well the Hood Data says 3.5 axel rating. DAMN, dealer said I had 4000 pound payload and could tow up to 12000 .... Shista. Kinda blows it for a 5th. The guy that had it before had a 5th on it.
But, this is the LONG bed 2500HD ... Is there a difference ??
