Re: Backing up an incline
The transmission on the gmc truck he owns is a 4l60E and is designed to tow in OD.Look at what it says in the owners manual. I have a suburban with the same drivetrain and have towed both my boats in OD. My truck has over 100k on it and I have had no problems. The first thing I did when I knew I was going to be towing a heavy boat was by a aftermarket tranny pan with a oil plug and start changing my tranny fluid evry 20-30k.<br />Maybe I am just lucky I don't know but it works for me.<br />I did this on the advise of my father who has worked for as a tech GM and been to The GM factory run schools for over 30 years.
