I have a 2001 Silverado.it came with factory installed trailer package. installing the controller and the wiring to the under dash junction block is done. i found the blunt cut end to the factory installed wiring harness leading to the hitch. but,i cant find where to attach the cut end to the main wiring harness. if anyone knows where this is done,please let me know.

Replying to: 3839 (Jun 06, 2009 8:25 am) To compare: My 496 (I refuse to go metric) pulls my 9500lb 5th wheel up a 6% or so hill around 45 mph. Maybe 50 if I push it and the hill is short. It's factory stock. And the Allison is a great transmission. |

I have a 2006 Chevy 1500 crew cab with 5.8 bed. I am looking at getting a goosneck horse trailer, but am worried about the truck handling it. It has the 5.3l V8. Trailer weighs 6000 lbs. Anyone done any towing like that with this truck?

Replying to: hrsgrl (Jun 17, 2009 10:36 am) Is 6000lbs the trailer's GVW or is empty weight? Your truck will do fine with 6000lbs but not with 2 or 4 horses in the trailer. Your truck would be fine with a 2 horse pull trailer. |
