If it doesn't, it's still worth looking into just what IS included in the "tow package." It's entirely possible that all that's different is the receiver, the 4 pin and the rear suspension airbags. Not saying that's true, but saying it should be looked into. If that's all that makes up the factory tow package, then it's all doable aftermarket. Like I said above, that's a LOT different than trucks that come with different axle ratios!
Some homework required...
A good way to check is to go to the parts department and see if they have different parts numbers for tow vs non-tow radiator, engine oil cooler, battery, alternator and drive axles. If none of those parts are different, you can probably retrofit aftermarket (including an ATF cooler).
