towing help information

I have a 2015 Tacoma, V6. have installed a K&N cai. with this setup am towing a North Trail 23' RV trailer. Would the addition of the TRD S/C help with the power and make a difference towing this TV? More power would be a blessing.

 

In my msg about my Toyota Tacoma I forgot to mention it is the limited edition with the full towing package. thanks for any help from forum members.

 

If you get fully hooked up with weight distributing hitch and sway control that'll be the best you can do. A S/C will get you there faster yes, but realistically you want to take it slow with this type of load. An S/C will get you up a hill at a faster speed too, but the stock 4.0L will get up that hill just the same just a little slower.

To answer your question, the SC makes the engine more powerful but doesn't necessarily make it a better towing rig because it's still the exactly same truck with 6500 pounds tow capacity.

 

thanks for your answer. I am wondering about the rear springs on the 2015. I noticed there has been quite a discussion on the suspension and problems with the leaf springs of earlier year models. Has that been fixed for the 2015 year? Also would using air bags help with the sag and ride when towing heavy? Do I just ask for a tsp checkup at the dealer. Am new to all this towing stuff.

 

I have airbags and love them. They will definitely keep things level. A weight distribution hitch will actually distribute the weight though.
