Sup Guys. I have a beltech lowered 2/2. Im going to tow a car and full trailer estimated 5k weight and traveling 6-8 hours of Towing. I dont think i have the heavy duty towing package. So im just checking with you guys if im going to be alright. I got a few Black Bear tunes to assist in the towing. What temps should i expect to see and whats bad? Also Should i not attempt without getting some Helper bags or will i be ok?

You'll be ok. Watch your tranny temps. Helper bags would help, but your only 2" in he rear so I don't think it'll be that big of a deal.

4l60e once you hit 210 i would slow down on it. once you hit 230 thats when you start to burn stuff up.

that being said I towed my tbss in my other truck to los angeles thru the grapevine where its very steep and the trans went only up to 200 max. 4l60e with 33 inch tall tires
