I plan on doing some serious towing with my 1992 K2500 454/4L80E/3.73 4x4 Camper Special, towing an enclosed trailer that is about 10,000lbs. The truck has a heavy duty radiator with incorporated engine oil and trans fluid cooling. I am assuming (?) the engineers knew what they we're doing with this setup if the truck is rated to tow 8600lbs. I have new brakes all around, upgraded master cylinder, Air Lift air bags, weight distribution hitch with integral sway control. In order to monitor temps better, I just installed an Engine Oil and Trans Fluid temp gauges. Drove it for the first time today with the gauges and I'm trying to understand what I SHOULD be seeing. Would appreciate any advice on what temps I should try to have. It's not out of the question to ADD an external cooler for both fluids, but hoping I don't have to.
