Towing with 35" or 37" tires?

[Motofreak]

Have an 04. 5 with 6 speed 3. 73 gears. Looking to raise it and run either tire. Pull a 10000# toy hauler. Anybody in the same category and if so how does it pull? What gear and rpm are you in at around 60mph.

Thanks

I don't know if this will help, but I have 35's on mine with 3. 54 gears I pull 60mph in 5th gear up 6-7% grades with a 7800lb trailer. (2200rpm)

Motofreak, same setup with 315 BFG's. At 60, it's around 1800, if I remember correctly. I don't drive 60 very often, though. Now 80 is dead on at 2250 RPM. and 50 in 5th is right at 2K. I run upwards of 14K towing, and even with the 3. 73's it works with the 6 speed. Sure 4. 10's would be better, and may be my next option to change, if I decide on 37's.

Thanks for all the info, Ordered the 35's with 4. 5 lift. Should be happy with the set-up.
