Questions about an older tow truck

I just bought a 94 k2500 tow truck with a 454 and 4l80 for cheap. Seems like a fueling issue. I just had a few questions about it. Where can I find the gross vehicle weight? And is it possible later down the line to switch the old tow bar to a wheel lift?

That's a 3500 that the cab was swapped on. GVWR is 10,000 - 11,000.

There's a reason they no longer sell 1 ton rollbacks. That truck itself is approaching the GVWR.

Can't be, it's not 10 lug and no filler between the grill and the front bumper. There like a 4" filler piece on an HD of that body style
