Silverado 1500 tow capacity

Asked by Matt Sep 14, 2020 at 01:06 PM about the 2015 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 LT Z71 Crew Cab 4WD

Question type: General

I have a 2015 Silverado 5.3 4x4 with 3.08 gears and
the trailer capacity is 6,100 pounds. I was
wondering if I could re-gear my truck to increase
the tow capacity.

Lower gears would help. Make sure the engine and transmission cooling are up to the task.

I suggest you look up the Chevy towing guide for your year truck and see what the towing capacity would be with the gears you want.
