Should have no problem with the trailer by itself. How heavy is the cargo in/on it? What are you carrying?

Ahh, you probably should have determined that BEFORE you purchased both truck and trailer. Having said that, I couldn't resist, you should be OK of you have at least the 3.55 rear end and a tow package.
