upgrading engine transmission for towing

Asked by drmike53 Jul 14, 2020 at 11:21 AM about the 2019 Jeep Cherokee Altitude 4WD

Question type: Car Customization

I want to tow a camper with my 2019 Jeep Cherokee with a 2.4l engine, which
doesn't have the power needed.  What would be a ball park figure to go from
the 2.4 to the 3.1 engine and accompanying transmission to tow a 3000lb
trailer?  thanks for any input

Sell your Jeep and buy a better tow vehicle. A swap would be very costly and problematic.
