Re: 81 C10 Trailering Special.
I was looking into GVWR's for these trucks the other day, I think the 11,000 rating was reserved for C30s (perhaps dually only?). The K's dropped down to 7-8,000 lb ratings due to the extra weight from the transfer case and other 4x4 parts. I think C20's were rated for 9000lb.
What axles does your C10 have? I have heard of "heavy halfs" but 11,000 seems way higher than what a heavy half would have been rated for.
