can I increase my tow vehicle's tow rating
am confused. just read in july. manufacturer's use engine power for tow rating but further states if you improve performance it won't improve tow rating?

Responding to this brag...because of the many, many, many lurkers out there would THINK the below is justification to follow the the “ I can...therefore it is okay”....vis...following their OEM’s ratings/specification/etc

thanks for beating up on me, I can take it but I think the last 3 comments are a bit over the top. I've upgraded my trailer axles from 5400lbs to 7200lbs my trailer tires from 15" 4ply to 16"6 ply upgraded my front rotors to dimpled and slotted my rear springs increased by 3000lbs have a 1200 lb safety cushion between the tow capacity and scaled fully loaded trailer weight. and for this I'm going to kill women and children get ticked by the police and blame manufacturers if something goes wrong. I guess this is why I don't facebook.
