Towing Capacity of 2015 Ram 2500 with 6.4 liter Hemi and 4.10 Gear Ratio
Published 09/19/2019 >
Question:
What is the towing capacity of a 2015 ram 2500 Laramie, 6.4 hemi, 4wd with optional 4.10 gear ratio with 11.5 AAM #8000 rear axle? I can find towing caps for these models but none state which rear axle other than gear ration.

Expert Reply:
I looked up the towing capacity of your 2015 Ram 2500 and based on the info you listed with exception of having an 8,000 lb rear axle I was able to determine that your overall towing capacity would be 15,590 lb. Everything I found your vehicle states that the rear axle was 6,000 lb capacity. Since vehicle towing capacities aren't hinged entirely on axle capacity I'd be shocked to see if the total trailer capacity would be different. The only place who can confirm that would be a Ram dealer though.
The Curt fifth wheel rail kit part # C16427-204 that you referenced is a fit for your 2015 Ram 2500 though.
