Will I be able to tow?

i had a 99 extended cab 5spd that we used to take bikes to the track. I didn't have the towing package either, just a reciever hitch added to the back. 3 adults in the cab, 1 bike and gear in the bed and 2 bikes on the trailer. No issues what so ever.

3 sport bikes + gear is an easy load for the gen 1's. I wouldn't want to put 2 bikes in the back of the truck. If i had the option i would go for 3 bikes in the trailer.

 

Towed a 1996 z28 Camaro on a dual axle car trailer yesterday through the grapevine.

Hardly noticed it.

 

Thanks guys.


I'll let you guys know how it went.

Well, everything went okay. We were not able to fit three bikes in our 4x9 trailer. So I loaded one in my bed and the other two in the trailer. Also, we were able to load all our gear in the trailer. I was averaging 55mph up the hill, which is not bad. The truck did really well. I might be doing it again in May. I usually go to the track maybe once a month.

I have 89K miles on the truck. I recently changed plugs and did an oil change. Is it time for tranny and rear diff to be serviced?


Thanks
