Default Conversion Weight on Semi back ?

Hi, im new to the site and green at doing this sort of thing. what im trying to figure out is how do i determine how much weight i can put on the back of the 1997 Kenworth T2000 im going to be building. the truck was a tractor but after the Chassis was streched a little to hold a 16' box and a power tailgate. what i want to do is put a 22' box on it and after the diff area lower the frame down about 20" so i can make a 6-7' toy hauler section with a side door.

knowing the truck was set up for 80,000lbs 1st does anyone know how much of the trailer weigh would be on the 5th wheel ?
