Boat weighs 3000, trailer easily another 1000.

Trailer has brakes as well.

I don't know what your tires are rated for in terms of load, or if your body lift will affect the hitch arrangement, but you're at least 1,000 lbs under the max towing for an auto on a stock truck. (the SOHC 4.0 with an auto is rated for about 5,600 lbs)
