  • What can I tow in a Chevrolet? Think twice before offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how small. Defying your C10 Suburban towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.

Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
