The Dodge Ram 1500 has a maximum towing capacity of 9,130 pounds for pulling a travel trailer. Going over this limit is risky as it can lead to transmission damage, brake failure, tire issues, engine overheating, drivetrain strain, and potential engine or transmission harm. Two key factors that influence the Dodge Ram 1500 towing capability are the engine and axle ratio. Upgrading either the axle ratio or engine can significantly impact the towing capacity of the Dodge Ram 1500.
