I haul more than that with my '96 Chevy Silverado 1500 4x4, and I got less motor than you!. I got the Vortec 4.3L V6 in my truck. I have hauled up to a 6,000lb tractor on a trailer that has an unladen weight of 2,000lbs, however, that is ALL she wants!, at that weight it strains everything, and I would upgrade my truck if I pulled that much very often, however I only occasionally pull that much on short hauls, so I get by. I got a 3:73 axle ratio in my truck and that really helps, and its a 5spd standard. I have learned though experience that even the base engine has power enough to pull all a half ton can carry and then some, however the big difference is you can't fully load it and go charging down the interstate at 65mph like it has nothing behind it, but if you are not in a big hurry, and you shouldn't be with a big load on, you can get by. If it was me, I think I would take a good hard look at a chevy or GMC 2500HD with the 6.0L in it if you think you really need it, they also got a 8.1L, but I think thats more engine than 90% of the popultion needs. What does you truck have for an axle ratio now?.

12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
