Original max cargo was 2147 lbs., which is no longer valid.
Tried to find the original specs on line but couldn’t. That was surprising .
Also upgraded the tires which they also listed on the label. LT285/60R20/ 125/122R
If you can find the original specs for a 2017 2500 4wd diesel, you can probably figure out new max payload. Hope this helps.

As far as I know no one can change a truck's weight rating from the way it left from the factory. You can change Springs you can put on airbags and anything else you want it will not change that number. May help carry the load better.
God forbid if you get in an accident and someone was killed and your insurance company finds out you were way overloaded you could be sued and your insurance company would refuse to pay any damages
