Towing with 2005 Suburban

Louis,
My apologies for causing confusion. I know that my vehicle is a 1/2 ton. I was only referring to the receiver that is inserted into the hitch (at the back of the car) - it's heavy duty (after market)! That piece is rated for 12K even though it is hooked up to a 8K camper. It comes with stabilizer bars that connect to the camper.
Does my vehicle have a "tranny cooler"? I know it has the tow/haul mode on the gear selector, which I plan on using.
I plan on being very selective with the amount of gear I bring, mostly just clothing and food. There will be three adults (including me) as well as 4 children in the car (1 infant, 1 toddler, an 8 year old and a 6 year old). The adults weigh no more than 150-170lbs each.
I hope the picture that I attached shows.
Thanks,
tsenior
