question on hwy cruising

ok so my motor is almost ready to go in i checked over the trans and am debating on installing the tci 220000 shift kit.

here is the two things that concern me is i have the infamous 7 1/4 and i plan on towing roughly 2000 lbs (motorcycle and gear and 5x8 trailer) will the stock axle live??

also i have a 38 mile commute and the gear calculator say 2600rpm with 25 inch tires if i go to 17"s or 2800 with the stock 185/70r13. i know i am being a worry wart but is that to high or will it be ok i plan on this being my DD.

Drivers have towed all sorts of things with cars just like yours ever since the first ones were sold. 7.25 rear, drum brakes, etc.., are DOT approved.
If you know your vehicles abilities you can adjust your following distance
and other factors accordingly.
