need to increase torque
 

i haul about 5 + tons on the weekends north Carolina is very hilly and my truck allways seems to have a problem with hills the motor runs like a champ but it seems like theres not enough torque to haul more weight .

i was considering putting in bigger rear gear

anyone else had this problem?

Gears would help. I would also ditch the Edge and get a custom tune from PHP. It will help with the power and lower your temps.

I would not dick with the gears...

Add some power via turbo, injectors and tuning changes.

im going to ditch the edge unit soon its great if you want a stock only truck .

i thought about injectors and turbo but i didnt think it would do anything with out rear gears but good to know thanks guys. does it matter what 5 position chip i get? i plan to get it re-burned anyway

im running gearhead tunes on my chip and love em. depening on what youve got done to your trans he can use different tunes for more power (torque in this case)

i may be wrong in thinking this so dont use this idea till someone smart says it will work but wouldnt a TQ help to. since it would let you lay the power to the ground. given it depends on what you already have in your trans (i.e. if you already have a triple disc theres not much room for improvement)

if i get a 6 pos chip what do yall recommend for the 6 pos besides economy setting

i have PHP on mine, stock, 65 tow, 80 DD, 65 performance, 100 performance, and 1,100 high idle. my mileage depends on speed. if i do 75 i get about 12. if i drop down to 65 i've seen as high as 18.5. i would like to try either swamps or beans. but i haven't had ny problems with mine. the only thing i don't like about them, is the performance tunes are pretty smokey. but the tow tune is great!
