I'll jump in here for Phil. Dodge kept tinkering with the GVW by adding capacity to the springs as the years progressed. If you read up on the year by year changes you will see how it changed. Optional heavier springs became available in 1951, with 1,600 lb on the front and 3,000 on the rear. The rear axle capacity was increased from 5,500 lbs to 6,500 lbs and the front was increased from 3,500 lbs to 3,750 lbs. They tinkered with them again in 1963. I think perhaps there may have been some optional choices as well.
