Your talking about your cac grille, he's talking about main grille.

One thing I'll add is that you probably just need to slow down a bit on the climbs... There is a reason the right lane is full of trucks pulling trailers and campers and it isn't usually a lack of power. Even with full upgrades on my truck I can get the temp rising if I'm trying to tow at the speed limit of higher on a good grade. Another thing is tunes.... they DO add boost and other things (even on a tow tune) and that can stretch the cooling system. Honestly I think the stock tune has more than enough power to tow 90% of the loads out there that the truck is rated for.
 
Sooo, no 70mph runs ehh-lol

On the lesser grades I run the speed limit or higher with a under 3k load, but 7 degrees? You gotta slow it down.
 
Well at least I kept the 170° T.....so we'll see how that works out.
Going to run around with the 5* 87p/t for a while.

All the parts are worth it and all increase capacity.... but you and me live in an extreme climate..... Really stresses the parts.
I'll be towing again at the end of the month, maybe a 8.5k load this time... If that happens I'll try different speed and RPM's for you to look for sweet spots...
