Thanks.
You shouldn't have any problems. The BT really helps in starting from a stop. You should look at this link to ways to add a Tranny Temp Gauge to your truck Just keep an eye on the temps, and keep your speed low. Another thing, that trailer will be a lot heavier than reported. Derwud tows a similar trailer and it gets heavy. The tongue also gets heavy. If you can, try getting an equalizer or reese straight-line hitch with 1200lbs bars. When towing to Glamis my trailer handles great and it is around 10,000lbs.
