    Surprised the ram would lift the bed with that much weight.

    Trick was to load close to the rear. She would groan a bit. The trucks dad used for this haul were old coal trucks so they had alot of rear over hang. After that contract (2 years) those things were retired. He made a mint of them though
     
    cke and Oxbow Thank this.

    In all honesty, unless your moving it is some serious off-road conditions I'd say you could put in excess of 50k on the drives for that short of a distance. The real issue isn't the drives, it's the clutch, transmission and drive shaft. Just be gentle and you'll have no problems.
