Will a sled deck be too much weight for my truck?

I drive a 07 Chev Regular cab Long box 1500 truck with the W/T package. Will a sled deck with two mountain sleds be too much weight for that light of a truck? I was thinking about using a ATV ramp to load my sled this winter but I keep thinking maybe a sled deck be a better idea of my truck can handle it. The biggest concern is the weight on the rear suspension. It has the Work Truck package wich means heavier springs but will it be too much driving long distance? Also will my V6 be able to haul that much weight without a struggle and not burn up the clutch?
 
put some override airbags on the back and you will be fine, the engine will handle it no prob

the cost of the airbags etc will be more upfront but the sled deck will save you $$$ in fuel in the long run balancing the cost out
 
I wouldn't worry about it. I'd throw that thing on and worst case scenario is you will need to put bags on the back
