Who tows with their truck?

I am planning on building my 72 SWB C10 to be a daily driver and i want to be able to tow my rock crawler with it over long distances. the crawler and bumper pull trailer will probably weigh 7000 lbs or so.

i have an ECE hitch, and the truck will be bagged on all four corners. I was planning on doing hydroboost on the stock brakes for now and maybe going to rear discs later.

I am not worried about power, but i am worried about the rear axle holding up, stopping, and over all stability. i cant drive this thing 7 hours white knuckle the whole time!

do i need to put down the crack pipe or is this doable?
