While the yellow sticker numbers are nice, they are mostly tax and registration driven. You've got a good handle on the issue...which is the usual one....pin weight. That said, your real world limitations are axle ratings and tire ratings. Don't ever exceed these. I wouldn't worry about being a few hundred lbs over on pin weight so long as you are comfortable within the component ratings. Tires are usually the weakest link. I don't know what your design is, but if you have a rear hitch on the trailer you can carefully use a storage platform to move some weight back of the axles.
I would suggest adding a timbren style spring to the truck. Also, if the truck has been used for towing pay close attention to the shocks. For a few hundred bucks some Bilstein 4600 shocks would firm up your towing platform. Happy towing[emoji2]
