I'm having a devil of time finding the tow ratings for these trucks.

Does anyone know what trailer weight I can pull with a 2001.5 Cummins, Quab Cab, 2WD, Auto?

thanks

 

it's a 2500

9750 lb ?

Thanks, I'm surpised it's not over 11k

 

That was a great bunch of info J

 

Where are you coming up with that number?

On the website linked to above, for a 2001 Ram 2500 4x2 QC CTD I am seeing a maximum trailer weight rating of 13,850 lbs and a maximum gross combined vehicle weight rating of 20,000 lbs.

 

Looks like you might have read it wrong. That's about what my 4x4 is rated for and it has the 3.55

 

I looked up the 2500 QC CTD 4X2 auto.....9750?

I think I need more pull that that. Was hoping to get 12k lb for a little slack pulling a 10-12k lb toy hauler.

 

The 4.10 gearset will pull a little more (rated). It will pull more, but your auto trans won't last. Upgrade the trans and she'll pull 14k all day long.

 

The rateing from 2002 for the same truck is max gross connected load of 16k with 3:55 gears and 18k with 4:10 gears. per my truck manual.

 

so what's the big differnce between the '01.5 & '02? Did they beef up the tranny?

 

The above information is the correct answer to your question.
