I have a 2003 3500 4x4 with a 6 speed transmission.
It was rebuilt last year because the 6th gear broke. now 1year and 6 days it broke the 6th gear again. I pull a 40ft flat bed trailer and some times i pull a 10 ton dump trailer with a 16ft trailer behind the dump trailer doubles

How can i fix the problem with 6th gear ?
Can i tow using 6th gear or should i tow in 5th gear ?


Thanks Norman566

 

Towing 20,000 +! Don't know, but I suspect you're severely over-loaded. The limit back then for a CTD was probably 16,000? Is the gear physically broken, stripped off the shaft? With that much weight, it would seem that towing in 5th would seem a good idea.
