Your PW will pull just fine. My PW with the Cummins B3.9 had a DrawTite frame mount hitch for my gooseneck trailer. Quite a few years ago, I loaded my Carryall on the trailer and took her for a ride. The PW did just fine, including climbing back up to 1600 feet elevation on a dirt road where I live. All went with no issues.
The problem I see in your set up, my set up and any other Dodge Old Iron...lets say, any old iron is speed. If you get into a bad accident, its going to be serious. The spacious 3 man cab will fold up around you, steering column push through your chest. These trucks have no energy absorbing crumple
zones, they were never designed to be safe at speed. They are slow serious off road vehicles.
