Browsing the ramtrucks site, specifically the towing guide, I'm presented with an odd conundrum. Maybe it's a mistake on the site, maybe not. Hoping someone here knows otherwise.
Ram Trucks - Towing Guide - Capacity Chart
Going there, select Heavy Duty, Crew Cab, 6'4" box, 6.4 Hemi and 4x4.
2500 Laramie Longhorn with 4.10 axle ratio has 2923# payload and 15,350# towing capacity
2500 Laramie with 4.10 axle ratio has 1353# payload and 8,750# towing capacity.
That doesn't jive.
NOW
If you change the axle ratio for the Laramie to 3.73 it jumps up to 3,022# payload and 12,450# towing.
Changing the axle ratio for the Laramie Longhorn to 3.73 only drops the towing capacity to 12,350#.
Is it safe to assume that site is not right for the regular Laramie with 4.10 rear? That's what I'm looking at getting and there's no way I can live with 8,750# towing capacity.
