My '72 brochure lists what I suppose to be a Max Trailer weight @ 6,000 lbs and Max GCW @10,500. This was for the C20. It doesn't specifically list the K20.

I suspect with better brakes, tranny, engine that we seem to all aspire to that these numbers could be even higher. Especially, with weight distributing hitches, trailer brakes, etc.
