His understanding of these things will soon be fleshed out.
By the time sufficient mods are made to pull a 10k piece of equipment safely, he could'a bought two 3/4 ton trucks.
And not to be blunt, but a V6 NV3500 is definitely not as strong as a good 4l60. And a 4l60 has nowhere near the strength of a 4l80. Just the way it is. Those early V6 NV3500s were a diaster really. The only good 3500s are '94 and up 4x4 units from behind 5.7s. They were OK. And they're nowhere near as strong as a 4500.
The V6 is the only part of the equation that could work.
No 1500 should have 10k behind it. 5k maxes them.
Your hitch will be worth more than the truck.
You're describing a mighty complicated fixer-up.
That said, have at it.
I pulled a 10k trailer behind a K2500 with an 489/NV3500 and 4.10 axles. I did that for two months and decided it was dangerous. Sold it. The truck did pull it, but the weight 'worked' the truck so bad that it was not safe.
And, the clutch would have failed had I persisted. I used low range for tight maneuvering. Saved a lot of clutch. Had NP241 transfer. Very cool. N
