Only rebuild if its slipping. Upgrade your sunshell gear to ''The Beast", And get an external tranny fluid cooler to keep the temps low.

I have a heavy I have a heavy RV and only using 40% of the capacity of the air lift system I level out with ease. I'm certain you would appreciate a great improvement in ride and handling. Probably the best towing accessory I've ever bought.

I have a 2010 Suburban and it doesn't work great. It only works intermittently.

The programmer was good in the beginning, the transmission shifted perfectly towing my 5th wheel but later on it caused My engine to stall. I called the support guys and they had never heard of that problem before but there seems to be issues with edge programmers and ford trucks. I am currently shopping for a different programmer.

The cortex is more for trucks that still have factory warranties. they offer other programmers that are cheaper, however I don't have one bad thing to say about the programmer. When it's in performance mode it's all out balls to the wall, mpg mode I gain a few mpgs if I can keep my foot out of It. I don't use the tow mode so I'm no help there but for a plug and play it's worth the money. Change trans pressures shift points del mph gov. Most of the time mine is on 93 performance mode and I also have a lil work done to the motor 2012 5.3 haven't been beet by a hemi yet

WE flat towed a 1988 GMC full-sized truck 625 miles to and from Florida and I feel sure that's heavier than your car. Can't comment on the installation because it wouldn't work on my Subaru Outback without expensive modifications to my car but the tow bar worked great. Very easy for one person to hook-up to the tow vehicle then to the RV.

I am using a small 310 cca and works perfectly. Just need to recharge after every 2 uses or so. It pulls a nascar up and down a ramp.

I bought the 10,00 lb job and all is good but I think it is overkill for me. I'm towing a corolla weighing about 2700 lbs.

in my 2004 Suburban LT it they work better than the originals from GM. Get new shocks also and you will be very happy with your car and you save a log of money. You may also better load your car now. I did more than 10000 mls now and i am more happy than the car was new. I drive the car in Mexico and we load rhe car very often. Cheers Sven

I purchased the 2865 for my 1999 Chevy 1500 5.3. It really made a difference towing my camper. Love how it changed the shift points on the tranny.

The 5100's are ideal for front and rear. I researched all brands for weeks and finally purchased these for my '04 Suburban ...rides like a dream, great control, minimal travel, not too stiff, just right. They are also appropriate for up to a 3 inch lift kit which is what I have.

I've found that traction is the key to this device's performance. My 23 horsepower Kubota does a great job of pulling as as it has good traction. Tap root stumps can be challenging though. As a rule, I believe that more power is better. More power = more weight and more weight = more traction and pulling power. I think you'll be pleased with this product but will see that a bigger tractor will do more work.

There are tunes for towing, street, and track. Towing is only like 60 hp but bigger torque gains street is big hp and torque gains, I believe 70/100 or something like that and track is massive HP and torque gains like 120/248 or something crazy definitely a huge difference I usually just leave mine set to track I have a 6.0 excursion and get 15mpg avg and about 20 down the freeway.

Worked on my 1999 Chevy Suburban with the 5.7L. I think there's a lot of confusion because the Silverado went with the 5.3 in 99 and the suburbans/tahoes were hold overs with the previous body style.

I have one on my 2004 Chevy Silverado truck and 2001 Chevy Corvette. Highly recommend.

I have an 09 f150 with the 5.4. I've got the Edge CTS, a K&N CAI, throttle body spacer, and custom exhaust. If I drive with a light foot I see anywhere from 15-17 city and I've gotten 23 hwy with it set to "economy." On the hwy though, anything above about 70 MPH and you won't see that good. I did tow a 4 place Seadoo trailer from CA to Utah and was getting 19 mpg using the "towing" program. The programmer is compatible with the K&N intake. When you run the setup you can select between a couple different CAI's and it will configure the tune for it. Overall I'm pretty happy with it and seen 3-4 mpg increase on both city and hwy. Hope that helps.

Dude, you don't want this. This thing only tows old vehicles because if it has a driver side airbag the bumpers will set them off. The best thing to do is get a dolley. You can have mine if you'd like.
