My 69

[Capt. Dan]

I got this 1969 Chevy C-10 pickup with the 8 foot bed about 5-6 months ago. I have been putting it together and i rv and have a great deal i can get on a small 5th wheel trailer. Its 27 foot and can weight about 6800 pds max loaded. it would put say 1600 pds on the pin,(hitch). I have been looking all over for spec on the rear axle and the gcwr for the truck. The door panel has a tag that tells the gcw. thats 5000 pds on this one. . I am wondering if i can tow that trailer on this truck. I can change rear-ends if i need to. I did already put new 3.73's in it and a th400 Automatic trans waiting to go in. Someone back years ago put a six in it and a three on the tree. It had a 4 speed in it from the factory and a V-8. I am working on that V-8 right now but back to it. Do any of you have any idea what the specs are on this old truck?? When i can i will get a link to the Picasa Photo site where the pic's are. I sure hope it can. I can't afford another truck. If i tried...My other half,(not sure which half), would kill me!! Help, Dan
