Rl,
you may not like what I say, but:
I think you may not have enough truck, I pull a trailer similar to yours.
I have a 2005 Dodge diesel 2500 series, it has a 4 speed auto transmission with T/H.
I just put it in T/H mode and let that old diesel go to work, the T/H mode changes the shift points allowing, more rpm's before it shifts.
works good, 2005 model you cannot lock out O/D, but so far, it has not been a problem as it pulls fine.
I have the transmission oil drained, install a new filter and clutches adjusted about every 40K.
might try that first by the dodge dealership, I would not let anyone do a transmission flush.
if that does not work, then you may need transmission work or a heavier truck.
good luck,
