Default how much can i tow?
the Dakota R/Ts did not come stock with a towing package and in the manual it says you can pull 2000 pounds, but i think that is with a screw on ball hitch on the bumper, correct?

the original owner of my truck added a mopar hitch to the frame and it has listed on it that it will hold 5000 pounds trailer weight/500 tongue weight with a load distributing hitch or 3500/300 with a load carrying hitch

what is the difference in those two types of hitches and since it is bolted to the frame and not the bumper is that accurate? i would think these high torque engines could pull a lot, especially with the 3.92 gears it has
