Sorry - Max tow is Sport level only. There is and was no max tow for Overland. Only the standard towing package (6,000 pounds, 3.73)If I recall, there was a max tow option for the Overland when I was going through selecting stuff I wanted when I was ordering it...could be wrong as it was late May of 2019 when I ordered it (memory may not serve me so well)...and yes, I do have the regular tow package.
I assume (probably not correctly though ) that the only extra with the max tow package vs. the regular tow package was the gearing, 4.10 vs. 3.73?
There is also no gear ratio other than 3.37 for Overland.
And there's a lot more differences between max tow and regular tow package besides gear ratio.
Wider axles, gear ratio, progressive springs, and so on.
But you can't get any of that on Overland with any option package.
Max tow is Sport - although I believe you could get Sport with tow package and not max tow (but why?)
Unfortunately, those of us with Overland or wanting Overland can't get any of the max two stuff, can't get the other ratio, wider axles or progressive springs. Ah, but we can do some of that stuff later - but it still will NOT change the towing capacity or rating.
