When trailering use 4th gear. It will lock up the torque convertor and run cooler than in drive/OD. It wont be hunting for gears either. Refresh your rear diff oil and transfer case oil to synthetic. And install a tranny cooler. This is when you want good shocks to absorb the extra forces of braking and cornering. And if lifted, make sure to buy the correct drop hitch so the trailer is level. You dont want the trailer to lift the back end of the truck when braking

I tow my 3500 lbs boat and it does great. Im at 230,000 miles as well.
