I was wondering if anyone knew the Towing Capacity of a 98 Z71. I bought the truck used and it did not have a owners manuel with it. I am looking to buy a travel trailer and need to know how big I can pull. Thanks...

98 Z71 4x4
Ext. Cab
Vortech 350

I have the same truck except it's an '02 w/ 5.3L. I have 4.10 gears and it's rated for 8800 lbs. With 3.73's it drops to 7800 lbs.
Your truck should be similar. The only thing I have towed is my 4,000 lb Jeep and it did fine, But I think doubleing that would be pushing it.
Hope this helps
