I looked up the payload capacity of your 2015 Ram 3500 single rear wheel diesel and it looks to be 4,140 lbs. So if you plan to carry around 4,000 lbs in the bed you should be fine. You'd also be fine to tow a 2,000 lb trailer as well.

I looked up the payload capacity of your 2015 Ram 3500 single rear wheel diesel and it looks to be 4,140 lbs. So if you plan to carry around 4,000 lbs in the bed you should be fine. You'd also be fine to tow a 2,000 lb trailer as well. I'd strongly recommend suspension enhancement to help provide additional suspension support since you are so close to your towing capacity. For that the Timbren kit part # TDR3500CA is a really great and easy solution. It gives you the support you need without requiring any maintenance or monitoring of air pressure like the air bag kits require.
