Forget it with a half ton Dodge - as well as too much to pull, you will
never be able to brake safely or steer properly with a half track on the
back.
I wouldnt attempt using anythiing less than a GMC with a rigid bar or a Reo.
We towed my M16 with the M1 wrecker -you could feel it on the back all the
time.
