Tow package doesn't mean you have the air ride suspension. It just means you have a hitch, and maybe a trans cooler that is built into the radiator. Just look for metal ¼ inch lines going into the passenger side of the radiator to see if you have a trans cooler. You may or may not have a power steering cooler too. If you have one there will be a very tiny radiator-type thing in front of the driver's side of the radiator. It is very unlikely you have it, but if you want it you can add an engine oil cooler. That will require a new radiator and the engine oil cooler lines. It's a very simple install. GM also offered an auxiliary trans cooler that could be mounted in front of the radiator. It came with a line that goes from the radiator to the trans cooler and another line that goes from the trans cooler back to transmission. If you don't have this but want it, it will cost you about $100 plus install. It's not very difficult to install in your driveway. A radiator for the engine oil cooler can run between $150-350. Price depends on place you purchase it from. Engine oil cooler lines come from the dealership with the necessary gasket and mounting bolts. It'll set you back another $100. Only thing missing is a mounting bolt near the center of the lines. It too can be acquired from the dealer for cheap.
