The 2001 Chevy Silverado 1500 5.3 towing capacity iS5,900 lbs. The towing capacity is the maximum amount of weight Your vehicle can tow when pulling a trailer. Max towing capacity should not be taken lightly. Exceeding what Your vehicle is designed to tow can strain Your engine and transmission, accelerate brake wear, damage Your tires and even warp Your chassis. This could in turn trigger catastrophic failure while driving and could lead to property damage or serious injury.
The manuel says 7600 to 8300 lbs. Depending on transmission ratio/cabin size
