Have a 21 3500 ho srw.

Any issues with running 35" tires and towing with the aisin trans? Dealer installed a level kit and tires. Just looking down the road on anyone running larger tires and the transmission holding up etc thanks

35's are not a problem. It's barely taller than some of the optional packages. I've always ran them and haven't had any issues.

I have been running 35's with mine, towing 5th wheel around 7,000 miles and have had no problem's. Millage will decrease but that isn't why I bought the truck. :cool:

What kind of weight are we talking about here (trailer weight). I'm sure it will be fine but no doubt you are putting additional stress on it, especially if you are pulling at max load.

I don't have a lot of miles on, but have been running 285/65R20 (34.6) since almost day 1. Stock size was 285/60R20 (33.5).

Pulling ~16K. No issues, don't expect any.

My trailer is lighter, only about 10k with 2k on the pin. Make sure you are running tires with load rating of E or E2 and you should be fine if you follow the max rating on them. I am running General Grabber ATX, 315/70-R17.
