I need a torque converter. I am towing a trailer and will be at or over the 5000 pound limit. I am having a hard time locating one.:skull2: 1993 jeep xj
There is a reason that the jeep is rated at 5K towing limit.... The fact that you put on a bigger hitch doesn't mean that you can tow higher loads (heck, I imagine one could mount up a class IV hitch to a yugo ).xxxventorxxx said:I have a class 4 hitch with the brake controller. I doubt it will be that hard to stop. If you have anyexperiencewith towing. A light trailer is not that hard to stop. I will also put a 3/4 ton truck on my wish list
Nope you didn't. You are ignoring the manufacturing requirement for towing.xxxventorxxx said:But I love my truck and have taken all saftey measures when towing.

5k with my 02 Suburban can be scary at times. I'd never use an XJ to tow anything above 2k, period!!!

My toyhauler is 5300lbs empty and my f-150 had a really hard time pulling it.
Superduty cured that....

I really wish I could afford a new truck to keep all of you safe. But rest assured if it is unsafe or feels hard to handle I will only bring it home. I will not take it out until I get a new truck. If,infactthat would be the case. I have a lot more faith in myoltruck than most of you do. We will see tomorrow. I pick it up at 10 am. I will continue this thread then
