Rear Suspension Enhancement Kit for 2020 Toyota Highlander

Question

Question:

Hello, Just found your website. I think we may be purchasing a travel trailer in the future, but next month I am renting a 17 4,235 GVWR trailer and will be using my 2020 Highlander V6 AWD, rated towable up to 5000 lbs. My little Toyota is very soft especially in the back and using other trailers I experienced the back dropping quite a lot. Can you recommend any products that can help support the extra load from the trailer tongue weight? Thank you,
