518 auto

I had a 92 1s get while back and ended up selling it now i have a 94 cc 4x4 f350 gasser well im interested in selling it and getting a first gen again. i have a 14000 pound toyhauler thats bumper pull i was wondering if a w250 or w250 with 518 would hold up towing that trailer around with minor performance parts like p.s i/c and 4 inch turbo back exhaust and little pump tuning maybe hx35/40
thanks
jon

Guess you'd better change your sig. then! Yeah, it'll handle it, easily. Of course, if you want to be really sure you should rebuild/upgrade, but a solid stocker will tow that with no problems.

Wow, a 14,000 lb camper that uses a bumper hitch? Didn't think that would exist. What is the tounge weight on that bad boy?
