TRAILER TOWING

The purpose of this guide is to assist you in selecting the exact Dodge Truck you need for your particular application, and to help you make the best possible use of its capabilities.

Did you know that most Dodge Trucks are capable of towing trailers up to 907 kilograms (2000 pounds) without added equipment or alterations to standard equipment? appropriate vehicle for your requirements is to identify all the possible ways you’ll be using your truck:

• Will your tow vehicle be used exclusively for

towing, or double as a personal or family vehicle?

• How far are you going to be towing? (Short

distances place less demand on a tow vehicle than longer distances.)

• How many passengers and what cargo will you be

taking while towing?

• Under what conditions will you be towing? Mountainous areas? Under extremely hot or

cold temperatures? At high altitudes? The more extreme conditions you encounter while towing, the more important it is that your tow vehicle be optimized to those conditions.

(1)

The ﬁrst step in selecting the most

• Do you plan to change your trailer during the life

of the tow vehicle? If so, plan ahead and select a tow vehicle that will meet your future towing needs as well as your current ones.

The answers to these questions are most helpful in selecting the right model, engine, transmission, and axle ratio for optimal towing performance. However, this is only a guide; personal preference for “optimal” performance is an important factor as well. Also, refer to the worksheet on the last page for a more detailed guide in choosing the correct vehicle.

(1)

Any trailer weighing more than 454 kilograms (1000 pounds) must have its

own brakes.

TRANSMISSIONS

Transmissions provide various gear ratios that allow for higher engine rpm relative to road speed. They also multiply the engine’s torque to provide the pulling power needed to reach cruising speeds. All Dodge Truck transmissions feature an overdrive top gear that reduces engine speed when cruising, for improved fuel economy.

BREAKING IN YOUR VEHICLE

• Will you be towing in any off-road conditions, such as elds, boat launches or gravel roads? Will you

park the rig in grass or on soft dirt? Heavy trailers

are difcult to get moving with a rear-wheel-drive vehicle under some of these conditions. Will you be towing in winter weather? Is a two-wheel-drive

vehicle adequate, or is a 4x4 required?

• How often are you going to be towing? If towing

is more than 20 percent of your planned vehicle use, the vehicle should be properly equipped for performance while towing; if less, the vehicle should still be adequately equipped for the towing job.

2

A long break-in period is not required for the

engine in your new vehicle. Towing a trailer is not recommended for the ﬁrst 500 kilometres

(300 miles) of your vehicle’s break-in period.

Drive moderately during the ﬁrst 500 kilometres (300 miles). After the initial 100 kilometres (60 miles), speeds up to 80 or 90 km/h (50 or 55 mph)

are desirable. While cruising, brief full-throttle

acceleration, within the limits of local trafﬁc laws,

contributes to a good break-in. Avoid wide open

throttle acceleration in low gear. Refer to your Owner’s Manual for additional information.

HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT VEHICLE FOR TOWING

Ram and Dakota Pickups and Durango and Nitro SUVs all offer an extremely diverse range

of trailer towing capabilities. A wide variety of powertrain/axle ratio combinations and optional trailering packages assure the perfect vehicle for your trailer towing needs. Your

Dodge Retailer can show you the various Trailer Tow Groups and other Heavy-Duty Groups

available on Dodge Trucks to help you select the equipment that’s right for your towing needs. Careful attention to details up front is the difference between the right towing vehicle and one that is not quite what you need to get the job done – a situation which could prove extremely dangerous on the road. The ﬁrst step is to familiarize yourself with terms that will be used in this guide when discussing vehicle choices for towing. You’ll ﬁnd the guide easier to use if you take a few moments and review this terminology.

Important Trailer Terminology:

Tow Rating: The maximum amount of weight a

vehicle can tow, as rated by the manufacturer. Maximum tow limits usually have special requirements, such as axle ratio, cooling systems, types of hitches, etc.

Curb Weight: (vehicle weight) The weight of the

empty truck (without payload or driver), including fuel, coolant, oil and all items of standard or optional equipment.

Loaded Trailer Weight: The weight of the trailer plus

all cargo in it. Measure Loaded Trailer Weight by

putting the fully loaded trailer on a vehicle scale.

Maximum Trailer Weight: Term used on charts

throughout this brochure. The maximum permissible loaded trailer weight.

Trailer Tongue Weight: The downward force exerted

on the hitch ball by the trailer coupler with weight distributing devices, if any, deactivated. Measure

Trailer Tongue Weight with the trailer fully loaded

and on a level surface, and with the coupler at its normal towing height. Measure directly with a commercial scale.

Gross Axle Weight Rating: (GAWR) The maximum

weight a speciﬁc axle is designed to carry safely. Includes the weight of the vehicle plus any load that must be supported by the axle, including Tongue

Weight and/or payload. The load on front and rear axles should not exceed the GAWR specied on the

safety certiﬁcation label for front and rear axles, nor

should total load exceed GVWR. The GAWR can be

found on the driver’s side door panel sticker.

Gross Vehicle Weight Rating: (GVWR) Total

allowable weight of a fully equipped vehicle with driver, passenger(s), cargo, ﬂuids, accessories and

Tongue Weight. Maximum GVWR and front and rear GAWRs must not be exceeded. The GVWR can be

found on the driver’s side door pillar sticker.

Gross Combination Weight: (GCW) A fully equipped

vehicle with driver, passenger(s), fuel, ﬂuids, standard and optional equipment, and a trailer with cargo.

AXLE RATIOS MADE SIMPLE

Deﬁnition: The axle ratio is the relationship

between driveshaft revolutions and axle revolutions. It’s usually expressed as a numerical ratio, such as 3.00:1. The higher the axle ratio, the more engine revolutions are applied to move the load. The concept is similar to that of leverage. The leverage comes at a cost, however, by decreasing

fuel economy and top-end speed. For optimum

performance with good fuel economy, a truck requires the proper ratio on its driving axle. Dodge Trucks are available with a wide range of rear axle choices, because no single ratio can meet varying factors such as engine output, tire size, load and terrain. All these factors must be considered when selecting an axle ratio to best meet your needs.

Axle ratios: A closer look

The axle ratio is critical in the operation of the transmission/driveshaft/rear axle system that transmits engine torque to the driving wheels and lets the engine develop sufﬁcient revolutions

per minute (rpm) to run efciently. With too few

revolutions per minute, an engine pulling a load on a grade is likely to “lug” and overheat. Imagine your vehicle trying to accelerate from low speed

in its highest gear. With too many rpm, an engine

will run noisily, get poor fuel economy and wear faster. The best rear axle ratio for the intended application lets the engine operate at its optimum power range, typically between peak torque and peak horsepower. This optimum range is different for each engine and can be determined from the engine’s torque/rpm chart.

A low numerical rear axle ratio, such as 3.21:1, is also referred to as a high ratio, because the road speed is relatively fast for any given engine speed. The characteristics of this ratio are lower engine rpm, reduced power output, and higher fuel economy. A high numerical rear axle ratio, such as

4.10:1, is also referred to as a low ratio, because the road speed is slow relative to engine speed. The characteristics of this ratio are higher engine rpm, more easily available power output, and lower fuel economy.

Spec the ratio to the need

How will your truck be used? How much will it haul

or tow? Will it be used on steep grades, on at

highways, or both? How important are fuel economy and acceleration? These are the questions you should ask yourself when determining the proper axle ratio for your needs.

A

B

The rear axle ratio is determined by dividing the number of teeth on the ring gear (A) by the number of teeth on the pinion gear (B)

inside the differential. With a ratio of 4.00:1, the

pinion gear on the driveshaft makes four rotations for each rotation of the larger differential ring gear on the rear axle driving shaft.

HITCH SELECTION

Hitch Terminology

Hitch: Usually custom-designed for a specic model

of towing vehicle. Rated for Loaded Trailer Weight and Tongue Weight.

Coupler: Part of the trailer. The socket must match

the ball size.

Hitch Ball: Must match trailer coupler size and be

rated to handle Gross Trailer Weight. Attachment

must be compatible with mounting area of hitch.

Safety Chains: Usually provided by the trailer

manufacturer. Strength is based on Gross Trailer Weight.

Sway Controls: (Optional) Sway controls help

minimize the effects of sudden manoeuvres, wind gusts, and buffeting caused by other vehicles.

Some are adjustable for varying conditions –

recommended for trailers with a large surface area.

Receiver: Attaches to towing vehicle. Rated for

Gross Trailer and Tongue Weights. Ratings may be different depending on whether weight-distributing

hitch or weight carrying ball mount is used.

Hitch Selection

Step One: Determine the Loaded Trailer Weight and

Tongue Weight (TW) of trailer.

Step Two: Match trailer and tow vehicle to ﬁnd the

correct hitch.

Step Three: Choose the right hitch, as well as

additional accessories that may be needed, such as hitch balls, ball mounts, drawbars, trailer wiring, safety chains, transmission coolers, locks, trailer brake controls, ball and receiver tube covers, tow bars or sway controls. Your Dodge Retailer can supply you with the authentic Mopar® equipment speciﬁcally designed for your Dodge Truck.

There are Three Basic Types of Hitches:

Weight-Carrying Hitch: Supports Trailer Tongue

Weight as though it were cargo located at the ball or

other connecting point. It is the most popular type of hitch, and is commonly used to tow small and

medium-size trailers. It is usually custom built for

speciﬁc models of towing vehicles, and is rated by

Loaded Trailer Weight and Tongue Weight capacities.

In general, weight-carrying hitches are used for

lightweight (Class I) trailers up to 907 kilograms (2000 pounds) and 91 kilograms (200 pounds)

Tongue Weight when towed by passenger vehicles and with medium-duty (Class II) trailers up to

1588 kilograms (3500 pounds) and 159 kilograms

(350 pounds) Tongue Weight when towed by

pickups, vans and sport utility vehicles.

Weight-Distributing Hitch: Rather than merely

supporting the Tongue Weight, a weight-distributing

hitch applies leverage between the towing vehicle

and the trailer, thus distributing Tongue Weight to all the towing vehicle and trailer wheels. A weight-

distributing hitch allows you to tow trailers with greater Tongue Weights, typically in Class III (2268 kilograms [5000 pounds]) (4536 kilograms [10,000 pounds])

(1)

and up to Class IV

(1)

categories, resulting in a more level ride, reducing stress on the rear of the vehicle and providing greater steering and braking control. Please note that air springs, air shocks and overload springs are not substitutes

for weight-distributing hitches, since they do not redistribute load to other axles. A weight-

distributing system includes a receiver attached to

the tow vehicle, a removable hitch head and spring-

bar assembly that ﬁts into the receiver opening,

and hook-up brackets that connect the spring bars

to the trailer frame.

(1)

When properly equipped.

Fifth-Wheel Hitch: A fth-wheel hitch is a special

high platform over the rear axle of the tow vehicle that

connects a vehicle and a trailer with a trailer-mounted coupling pin (kingpin). Fifth-wheel trailers are the

heaviest variety, typically Class IV (4536 kilograms [10,000 pounds]) and above. Mounting the hitch over the rear axle improves sway control and makes long trailers more manoeuvrable. In this case, the kingpin weight becomes payload in the truck bed for all calculations.

NOTE: Trailer Tow Group does not include the hitch shank or ball.

Your Dodge Retailer can supply you with the correct hitch set-up at extra

cost to meet your speciﬁc needs and arrange to have it installed for you.
