Looking to tow 8000 lb trailer with a Hemi
I am considering an 8000 lb TT (loaded weight) that I would like to pull with a 3/4 Ram with a 5.7 Hemi. I have WD and sway control on both sides. Anyone have a similar set up and do you tow okay with...

I towed a 5,000lb TT with a 2004 Durango Hemi 5.7L. Towed with ease but I would not want to tow much more. Up steep mountain grades, 6% or higher it was down to 35mph and rather high RPM's. Would be uncomfortable to tow higher loads up the grades.
Essential for our Hemi was the factory auxiliary engine and tranny cooler. On a hot summer day the engine temp would climb way up and then the aux fan would kick in and the temps would quickly drop back to normal. Would certainly over heat without it.
