The only items I added was the Air bags for the rear springs. It did not raise the rear, but kept it from getting too bouncy when I had some of my heavier cars on the trailer. My Boss 351 Mustang (4,386lbs) plus the 1,700lb trailer towed quite well (all but the longest and steeprest hills), with the Cobra weighing in at less than 2,300lbs, it was a breeze. When I got the "Trailex" trailer (795lbs), it made it almost like there was no car on the trailer behind my little jeep. Granted, I did have the factory tow package(heavier cooling system), but I saw no reason to have an extra transmission cooler installed....Ask any of the guys I used to tow out to Pocono with, up hills, all but Cranky's F250 diesel had trouble keeping up with me...............
