Get the correct hitch.
When choosing the correct hitch for your vehicle you want to make sure it can handle the weight of your trailer and accessories. To help with towing larger bumper pull trailers, a weight distribution hitch may be the best for you. The benefits of a weight distribution hitch will help balance the weight of the trailer throughout the vehicle instead of just the hitch receiver. Browse Curt hitch's here
Use of a tuner/programmer.
Most newer vehicles are coming equipped with more power and torque from the factory, However the use of a tuner/programmer will help in giving more usable power throughout the curve.

Upgrade braking system.
Braking systems are always one area that most don't think about when towing. However, it is one of the most important. When towing heavy loads, you'll want to be able to stop the vehicle when coming downhill safely. Upgrading to heavy duty pads and rotors or even larger brakes will help in reducing your stopping distance. Browse brake components here
