A vehicle straight from the factory with a full fuel tank & no one in it, when weighed would be the Curb Weight

First thing to know, is it a 2500 or 3500 or ??
How long is the bed?
Is it 2 or 4 wheel drive ?

Taking an educated guess the truck is somewhere in the mid 9000lbs range actual.
My buddy has a 12K lbs rated two post he uses for his '14 2500 CTD 4X4 8' bed. I'd pay attention to the width of the hoist, there's not much room putting SRW trucks on the hoist between the posts, you wouldn't be able to drive through with a DRW.
Make sure you use safety jacks under the truck while working on it.

Thanks I don’t plan on driving through the lift if I could get away with a 10,000 pound that would be nice considering I will only be using it once in a great while 12,000 would be cool but it’s another two grand for thatI’ll have to talk to the guy at rotary lift this week

Find a truck stop next time you need fuel, most of them have scales. Top off the tank and run it across the scale. The extra weight of you being in the truck will offset for most variations in the trucks weight when youight run it up the hoist.
