4.2L v6 standard 5 speed, what would happen if i had the suspension stiffen so as not to squat it to much. would the truck just not pull if or would i just have to drive slow?

Usually the clutch is the first thing to calf, then the brakes. The truck is not safe to control if you have to avoid a hazard, or have to make an emergency stop. The suspension is too soft. If you are thinking of a tow vehicle, buy at least a ¾T P/U.

I don't recommend it. The Clutch would be an issue,but more importantly is the braking capability. If you 5 speed is the Mazda 5 speed it will not take the abuse of towing for long. If you have the big ZF 5 speed (probably not what you have) this one will do the job.

NO go. Would be like using a VW as an 18 wheeler, too many broken parts.

You would break or damage something and reduce your stopping ability...besides, that's what semi-trucks are for.

you'd burn up the tranny and most the drivetrain if overloaded
