Your vehicle was certified at the factory and the yellow label on the drivers door is your limiting factor. You can do whatever you want to “upgrade” the suspension, but if the numbers still exceed your GVWR, then LEGALLY your over.

Lots of people are over and don’t worry about it. Lots of people argue that the 3/4 ton and one ton are the same thing, I’m not here to argue if it is/isn’t, bottom line-

What ever the sticker says, is what you can LEGALLY carry/tow. Do what makes YOU feel comfortable, just be sure that your comfortable with being able to control your rig in an emergency situation. If that makes me a member of the weight police, then so be it.
