Run a big trans cooler and you should be fine.

b ut cody, do you have any pics of your truck on 33's??

Back to the scheduled program:
As cody said, you should be fine with a big trans cooler. How much does the crawler weigh? How far are ya towing it?

I pull my race car and 18' trailer all the time with a 9.5" vigilante that stalls to about 3000. Just have a good cooler and get it to lock up and you'll be fine.
