The park pawl in the transmission has a part in what the tow rating is too. It's not all about what it can actually tow. For safety and legal purposes the truck has to be able to hold the load in park on a grade.
I'm sure it does......but really?
You can't be suggesting that 2 similar vehicles, same trans, have different parking pawls if the tow rating is different.
:S
I really doubt that there is any difference in the parking pral. People forget why their car still has a parking brake! I would never abuse my automatic transmission by depending parking pral to hold it in position especially with a trailer in tow!!
It angers me no end service shops that don't set the parking brake after servicing my truck!!!! :S
