Suspension Enhancement Recommendation for 2000 Chevy K2500
Question:
I have a 2000 K2500 with a BandW flip ball gooseneck hitch installed. I was wondering if this was the correct kit since the top bracket goes on the outside of the frame rail where the hitch already is mounted. Thank you.

Expert Reply:
We have really great suspension enhancement kits that do fit your 2000 Chevy K2500 but none of the air bag kits are a fit with the in-bed hitch you have since the brackets mount on the same part of the frame. What I would recommend instead is a RoadActive Suspension kit like the part # RAS3611-CHD for if you have factory overload springs or part # RAS3611-HD for if you do not have the overload springs.
The RAS kits over adjustable support that is easier to install, easier to adjust, is less maintenance, and improves handing and ride quality compared to air bags which are known to be harsher.
