If you have 6.6 diesel or 8.1 gasoline engine the truck is rated by General Motors to tow that much. Weight distribiting hitch is required for over 7500 lbs. and maximum tongue weight for reciever is probaly 1,000 lb. You can adjust tongue weight by positioning tractor on trailer but tongue weight of less than 10% of load can cause trailer sway. As for brakes they are required on all axles in most states BUT trailer with one axle brakes will stop quicker from 50 mph than one with two axle brakes from 70 and you would need to keep speed down because of possible trailer sway. If trailer had two axle brakes and you have big engine I would go for it but with one axle brakes probaly not.
