Need 2015 Chevy 2500HD numbers.

I called Chevy and they said look in the book since my truck doesn't have the door or glove box stickers. Not all the weights are listed in the book. Does anyone have them? I need front axle, rear axle, payload, Max trailer weight, max combined weight. I want to take more measurements with my setup and see if anything needs to change.

Currently what I have is
2015 2500 HD Duramax LTZ crewcab standard box
Max Trailer 17,100 lb
GCWR 24,500 lb
Front axle
Rear axle
Payload

I have to chuckle at myself.........this is where I was over 2 years ago when I had a 2015 2500. I could NOT find the sticker. Folks here tried to stay calm with me, saying it has to be there. I fought it for weeks.

Finally I found it. In door jamb. Had to stand on my head.

And they are all different, so no book is going to help you much. FWIW, the only number I remember is my payload........2286 lbs. That's what prompted me to trade for a dually, because I had a 5th wheel on order that was going to have a pin weight that would exceed that payload just by itself.

Another great response from a dealer/manufacturer to assist an owner, albeit not the original. They could've provided you with that information based on the VIN.

Payload will be GVWR from the door post sticker minus your loaded ready to travel scaled weight. Everything else is MFG BS.
Your GCWR will be based on a bumper pull trailer, NOT a fifth wheel. Simple reason is the differencembetween 20% and 12%.
FAWR and RAWR will also be listed on the sticker on the door post. If you dont see it, look at the tire rating times two. They will be the weakest link.

So to confuse things even further, look at the difference between a 2015 and 2016. As you noted, it is 17,100 for 2015, but the EXACT same truck is 13,900 for 2016. Reason being GM started publishing numbers to conform to the SAE J2807 spec. Fun huh?

In order to find out exactly what you have for payload and pin weight you need to load it up ready to go, and visit a CAT scale.

Weigh the entire rig, disconnect the trailer and go back to the scale for a "re-weigh". Then you can calculate precisely what you are dealing with.

Cost, about $22 if I remember including the re-weigh

Uh sorry reprise. Unless things have changed the only RE ratio available with the Duramax option is 3.73.
4.10 is only available with the gas motor.

On the Duramax only 3.73 is available.
Biggers website
Duramax 6.6L Turbo-Diesel V8 17,900 lbs 3,501 lbs 10,000 lbs

Even there the numbers are different. I called the GM number and the customer service rep couldn't even begin to understand the numbers I was wanting. Crazy how hard this is to get this info and to get the correct info.

The sticker is between the front and rear doors at the bottom of the B pillar just above the rocker. IT is a REAL PITA to see and read.

I'll check there right after work.

I called GM and finally got someone that gave me some numbers based on VIN. It took them 25 minutes to get the numbers.
FA 4,800 lb
RA 6,200 lb
Payload 2,900 lb
Max fifth wheel weight 17,100 lb
GVRW 9,500

I have very similar truck. Will try again to check my sticker. It was apparently applied when ink was wet as numbers are smeared. I called dealer 3 days after buying and asked for a replacement. 8 weeks later I got a brand new BLANK sticker

This is correct.

Since most of my post concerned the gear ratio, I have deleted it outright.

Thank you (& the OP) for the clarification.

So, write "11,320 lbs" and pull anything you want.

2015 Chevy 2500HD Duramax 4DR numbers

GVWR GAWR FRT GAWR RR
10000 LB 5200 LB 6200 LB

Cargo max weight: 2235 LB

Does anybody find it odd that the combined axle weight ratings are 11400 lbs, but the GVWR is 10000 lbs?

2427 lbs is your cargo capacity. The GVWR and GAWR's are on a another decal in the same area. The decal is grey with black writing.
