Towing power

I builted a hunting trailer that I didn't get around putting axles underneath this year and sitting on a deck over trailer. About 2000lbs heavier than I wanted it. This thing is going to weigh close to max 10,k lbs I was wondering if my 1993 W350 dually going to have problem towing. Can anyone tell me max weigh I could tow?

Thanks

It will have no trouble pulling. Just make sure the brakes are up to date and working good on truck and trailer.

What gears? check the tag on the rear diff cover.
