I'm contemplating purchasing a toy hauler. My question is how do I know what the towing capacity of my vehicle is. I'm wanting to use my suburban....1999..5.7 motor...4L60e transmission....Gmail 10 bolt posi Trac with 3.73 gears factory tow pack with factory auxiliary oil and transmission coolers. The trailer hitch has a 5000# rating ( factory). I'm looking at a lightweight trailer 6100# pull behind ( not a 5th wheel). Any experience with a close type setup? Is the hitch the limiting factor?. It's a 1500 4 wd btw.
