Mounting an MEP 802A on a Dodge Ram 2500

Looking for opinions and insights on mounting a MEP 802A on a Dodge ram 2500.

My truck is a 1996 4x4 12 valve Cummins Dodge Ram 2500.
The idea is to flatbed my truck and mount the generator to: run hydraulic knuckle boom crane (electric over hydraulic pump), welder and associated power tools, and have the gen for emergency power.

I like the power of the MEP 802A , but wondering if the weight of it (almost 900 lbs) along with the weight of the crane 1000 lbs. will just be too much for the truck.

any insights or experience with similar setup appreciated.

thanks.
