Hola The information that I quoted was from the '67 Towing Brochure. It may be true of the A/C delete when the tow pkg was ordered later on. I have a friend who has a 1971 two door ____ III with the factory towing pkg. His vehicle has the 440, 3:23, OEM load-equalizing hitch, extra trans cooler with factory steel lines from the bottom of the radiator to the cooler and no A/C. On part of the 67 brochure it has a drawing and specs for the local towing shop to make up the hitch since it was accepted to have a hitch that was not part of the MoPar system. When I purchased the 63 Le Baron it had a shop made load-equalizing hitch on it. I would also say the 3:23 sure-grip rear axle was an option over the STD 2:94. The axle info is in the 63 FSM, but it does not say about which vehicle it may be on. The vehicle also has a shop installed transmission cooler on it. Our 66 Le Baron has the STD everything rear axle assembly with the HD spg option ( due to rear A/C ) and a shop made load-equalizing hitch. The heaviest load I have pulled is the 63 Le Baron ( on a tow dolly ). The lightest load is the 27' Air Stream. Understanding the engineer's have understated the load ability of the Imperial to have a safe margin I would say the Imperial could tow up to an additional 2000 pounds on what ever year you may have. ( For those of you who have limited trailer info take in mind that trailers over the size used to carry lawn mowers and the such have a reguired brake system that is part of the trailer ( This system is somewhat like the holding of the seat belts in that it free-wheels until you stop hard ). The next level of trailer has an electrical activated system from the tow vehicle. The big boyz have the air brake system which our Imperials do not have. ) I understand that some members have no interest in pulling anything with their Imperials so this information is possibly unwanted. Some members may never pull with their Imperial but want this information just for the sake of knowing and bragging. And I do know that some other members do have a vintage Air Stream like us to pull around.
