Default my first chevy

just bought a 95 suburban 5.7, and i have to say i love it. i have a few questions maybe i can get some help with. it has a hitch and tranny cooler, both seem to be aftermarket, no 7 pin by the hitch. im wondering how i can tell what gears it has? and how much it can tow? i have a TT thats 4,700 dry. i dont think ill have much of a problem doing so. i have a good break controller,WD hitch and anti sway. any help would be great and thanks

You need to know axle ratio(s) and if 2WD OR 4WD. There should be a sticker inside the glove box that has a code for the ratio and I'm sure you know the latter. Once you get the ratio, check ur owner's manual for towing capacity.
