Transgo makes a great shift kit for towing. It's also a great kit for basically everything.


Get a large trans cooler as that will lower the temps.


And you might need an upgrade to the radiator.



Other than that you might need to upgrade to a bigger truck.

 

who sells a bigger/better radiator?

how hard is the shift kit to put in?

I plan on getting an RV at the end of the year, but i was hoping i could get away with towing with the D in the mean time.

 

Nobody but specialized shops sell upgradeable radiators that I know of but you night just need a new one.

Depending on the shift kit, have your transmission shop put it in when they do a full service.

I'm sure you can hold off, but get a really big trans cooler and check the clutch fan. Also slow down and don't tow in Over Drive, press the tow button.

Yes there will be some moderation of the valve body so have you local shop install it with a service (fluid/filters). Ensure they only use ATF+4. Have them take a look in your trans to make sure it looks good enough for a shift kit.
