Since you pull a trailer my opinion is to go with a Dual Disc. They will take anything you throw at it with ur ADR and also will be the best clutch to pull a trailer with since backing a trailer with a single disc ceramic or feramic clutch that will handle mid-range HP will be extremely "grabby" and will shake the crap out of the truck. Making you have to slip the clutch to back a trailer smoothly. Not the case with a Dual Disc.

Id suggest a ductile 3400 or 3600 Pressure plate DD from either ValAir Inc or South Bend Clutch.
