Can Super Springs Suspension Stabilizer and Timbren Aeon Springs Be Used Together

Question:

I tow a 7000lb travel trailer with a WD hitch but would like more support in the rear. Would it be possible to use Super Springs SSA8MTKT and Timbren TGMRCK15S together? Or would be overkill?

You could indeed use both at the same time if you cared to, as they would fit but it isn't necessary. I'd recommend going with the Timbren # TGMRCK15S only, as that kit offers 8600 lbs of capacity which is plenty. This kit isn't compatible with XFE package-equipped models.

In all honesty, if your weight distribution kit is properly rated for your trailer's as-towed tongue weight including the weight of anything stowed in the truck bed behind the rear axle, and the system is set up correctly you really shouldn't need any other suspension enhancement unless you haul heavy loads in your truck bed when you're not towing.

I've linked to an installation video showing the Timbrens being installed on a 2011 Silverado. I've also linked to some help articles about weight distribution which will help you determine if you're using the correct system.
