Uh oh... towing with the 196... ;)

What gears and tranny and tires do you have now, that you're in 3rd (I
assume you have a 4spd then) on hills?

While running 33s/4.09s and a close 4spd, 3rd wasn't *that* bad with the
196.. it would run to about 55mph... problem was, I seemed to spend a LOT of
time there... ;)

What do you want to tow?  How far, how fast?  How many hills?
