Published by under Class A

Question by Patriot: How can I improve the towing capacity of a 2005 Jeep Cherokee Laredo?
I have a early version 2005 Jeep Cherokee Laredo. It has a seller installed following industry hitch (class 3). I just found out that the highest towing capacity is only 3,500 lbs. I have a journey trailer for camping that weighs 3,200lbs empty. I picture I will be towing close to 3,500lbs when geared up. The camping journeys will be about 5 occasions for every yr and the drives will be about 1-two hrs every way. more...

Q&A: Towing Potential- 2001 Dodge Ram 1500?

Published by under Class A

Query by Leftyizme: Towing Capability- 2001 Dodge Ram 1500?
I have just obtained a 2001 Dodge Ram 1500 standard cab, long bed pickup. It has a 5.2L and automated, and also a factory tow bundle.
It has a three.55:1 rear, trans cooler, bigger radiator, and oil cooler.
What is the maximum towing potential for this truck? The guide states seven,800lbs. but the GCWR just isn’t higher adequate to help that claim.
I have a 31ft. travel trailer that I need to tow with it, the trailer weighs six,300lbs completely loaded, and is a bumper pull.
The truck also has a Class IV hitch rated at ten,000lbs, and the truck currently has an electrical brake controller.
Thanks more...

Sure, thank you for that. I never believed to look in my handbook. more...

Class ll towing: Ford Ranger pickup or Volvo 850?

Published by under Class A

Question by c_kayak_fun: Class ll towing: Ford Ranger pickup or Volvo 850?
We recently bought a small travel trailer, single axle, 2350 lbs. dry weight. We’re pulling out the upper bunks and won’t be loading too much in it so I expect even with the water tanks filled it will be under 2500 lbs. My boyfriend’s older 5-speed 4-banger Toyota pickup really strains pulling it so I was going to either get a Class II hitch for my ’95 Volvo 850 Turbo wagon (220 hp with a tow rating of 3600 lbs) or buy a 2003 Ford Ranger pickup, 5 speed 3.0L V6. But I notice the Ranger is only around 185 hp and the tow rating is only about 2500 lbs (5 speeds are rated lower for towing than automatics but I still prefer a stick). more...
