Also, think your truck may not have the payload capacity for this rig. I think GVWR is 16000 lb. Probably a minimum of 3000 lb pin weight - most likely more. Back in 05, I think payloads were around 3000 to maybe 4000 lb. Add in 2 bodies, full fuel tank and other sundries plus a hitch, and you are adding 450 lb at least. So possibly payload down to 2500 lb.

Check this out also. I had a 2004 chevy and had to add airbags because of the squat when hitched up - about 3 inches. I have been right at the limit (actually 2-400 lb over on gross weight, but both axles are ok. Only diff on a chevy 2500 vs 3500 is an extra leaf spring, so I feel safe. Do your research.
