Well I am NOT the weight Police, but you are looking at about 15,000# loaded. That weight you will be pushing the limits of your tires. You are looking at between 3,000# and 3,750# on the pin.
Not stating too much for axle as the axle manufacturer rates it for about 9,500# so your issue will be tires and springs!
That 5er is into 350/3500 DRW, this from one that tows a 12,000# 5er with a 2001 2500!
