Engine Performance problem
2009 Chevy Colorado Two Wheel Drive Automatic 25000 miles

2009 Chevy Colorado Crew Cab with Z71 off road package. 5 cylinder 3.7 liter engine.

This truck did not come with the TOW package.
If I simply add a tow hitch (and no other additions such as transmission cooler), what would the tow capacity be?

Thanks.

Hi there,

The tow bar or hitch will be individually rated, this information should be on the bar/ hitch on an ID plate, check this out. a cooler will not affect the towing capacity.
