Thinking of trading my 2005 CRD KJ for a KK 2008 to 2011. If you add an aftermarket hitch does the engine and transmission cooling need upgraded?

Thanks in advance for you input

Would be smart to see if it doesn't already have a trans cooler installed. Curious though: Why get rid of a CRD?

My wife's car is a 99 and not much of a road car , the Jeep has 98K and we have the 100k warranty, We try to have one newer car for long road trips. I am retired so we try to travel as much as possible, flying is too expensive and too much of a pain but that is another topic.

I have an '08 KK without the factory towing package, and I installed the aftermarket hitch without the auxiliary cooler, and I haven't had any problems at all. Of course, if you were using it for towing constantly and for heavier loads, it might make a difference, but I think it's more in the way you drive it while towing.
