Comparing Timbren Suspension Enhancement TGMRASTBHD vs TGMRASTB for 2003 Chevy Astro Van

Question:

I have a 2003 Astro Cargo Van. I am trying to decide between the Timbren TGMRASTBHD 6000lb vs TGMRASTB 2000lb. I will probably be carrying 750 to 1500lbs of music equipment all the time. I will occasionally be pulling a 6x12 enclosed trailer or utility trailers, both single axle. Trailer payload load between 750 and 2000lbs. Which version would you recommend?

The Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System # TGMRASTBHD is designed for cargo vans and the # TGMRASTB is designed for passenger vans. The capacity is the big difference because they are both designed for vehicles with steel rear springs.

It sounds like you have a passenger van that you use to carry cargo, so if that is the case, I recommend the # TGMRASTB for your application. If instead is a cargo van then use # TGMRASTBHD as the original design of the vehicle will play a huge part in the overall ride.
