Expert Answers about Chevrolet Silverado 1500 LTD


  • Brake Controller Recommendation for a 2022 Chevy 1500 LTD
  • From my available research, your 2022 Chevy Silverado 1500 LTD already comes with a factory 7-way. Since this is the case, you do not need any additional wiring to prep for a brake controller. For the brake controller itself, I recommend the Curt Echo Wireless Trailer Brake Controller - 1 to 2 Axles # C51180. There are a few reasons why I always recommend the Echo over all other controllers. First off, the Echo is true plug-and-play controller that doesn't require any additional plug-in...

  • Can You Upgrade from 4.80x12 to 175/80-13 Tires On Boat Trailer
  • The next size up from a 4.80x12 is a 175/80-13 which will be around 2.6" larger in diameter and 1.6" larger in width. Therefore, you'll need to make sure you have the space for this new size, but please note the difference will be halved. For this, I recommend the Karrier ST175/80R13 Radial Trailer Tire with 13" Galvanized Wheel part # AM31952 which has radial plies for longer highway trips and a galvanized wheel for use in water. It has a 5 on 4-1/2" pattern.

  • Correct Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution System for Winnebago Micro Minnie 1800BH
  • I show the Winnebago Micro Minnie 1800BH has a GVWR of 5,000 so the Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution System part # EQ37100ET is what I recommend. It's rated from 5,000 - 10,000 lbs so you'll be a bit on the low side but this leaves you room to add more weight or upgrade. The next size down is also too small so this is the correct system for this trailer.

  • Difference Between Air Lift Air Bag Kits for a 2022 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 LTD 4WD
  • The first big difference between all of the Air Lift LoadLifter air springs kits for your 2022 Chevy Silverado 1500 LTD 4WD has to do with whether or not you have the Trail Boss model or trucks with the Adaptive Ride Control. Since you didn't mention either of these we can disregard those notes and that leaves us with 3 kits: Kit # AL57288 is the base model unit that comes with standard air bags and lines. Kit # AL88288 is the next step up as it uses standard air bags and lines, but the...

  • Best Way To Reduce Sag While Towing With A 2022 Chevy Silverado 1500
  • If you are looking for the best option to get rid of sag on your 2022 Chevy Silverado 1500, you will want the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs # F2609. These offer up to 5,000 pounds of load leveling capacity at 100 psi, but can then be deflated down to 5 psi, which will return you to your stock ride. With the SumoSprings # SS45FR not having this adjustability and a lower capacity, I highly recommend the Firestone air bags. A potential add on to this though, will be a compressor....

  • Will Inno Tire Hold Bike Rack Carry 29" Polygon Large Frame
  • Yes, but just barely. The Inno Tire Hold Bike Rack for 2 Bikes # INH120 can fit a wheel diameter of up to 29 inches and a wheelbase of 48 inches and your Polygon has a wheel base of 47.9 inches and a wheel diameter of 29 inches. So it will fit and work fine but it's at the max range the rack can handle.

  • SumoSpring Recommendation for a 2022 Chevy Silverado 1500 LTD Trailboss
  • For your 2022 Chevy Silverado 1500 LTD Trailboss you can either use the SumoSprings # SS65FR which is rated for 1,000 lbs or the SumoSprings # SS45FR which are rated for 1,500 lbs. I honestly just recommend going with the higher rating. SumoSprings is known for retaining the great OEM ride quality of trucks so having the extra capacity just means you'll get more support if you ever need it. Please note that a suspension enhancement system will only add some help to a current suspension...

  • Random Trailer Disconnected Message on 2022 Chevy Silverado 1500 LTD
  • In most cases, the random trailer brake disconnected message on the in-dash display of your pickup with factory trailer brake controller is caused by a loose connection between the vehicle and trailer. I recommended first inspecting the plug on either side to ensure the pins are all straight and free of corrosion. If this checks out I recommend replacing the trailer side plug first using the Hopkins Endurance Metal Trailer Connector part # HM48510 but if this does not work you'll need to...

  • Can Prodigy P2 Brake Controller Install in 2022 Chevy Silverado 1500 with Glove Compartment Harness
  • To install the Prodigy P2 part # 90885 in your 2022 Chevy Silverado 1500 the easiest solution at this time would be to use the harness you have found in the glove compartment. This will need to get hardwired to the brake controller's universal harness that it comes with. The Tekonsha harness you are looking for actually is currently on backorder which is why you are having a hard time finding it.

  • Recommended Trailer Brake Controller for a 2022 Chevy Silverado 1500 RST
  • If you're looking for the best and most tried and true electric trailer brake controller option on the market then it's hard to make a case against the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 Trailer Brake Controller part # 90195 with its easy to read display, built-in safeguards, and storable settings. It can be installed on a 2022 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 RST without splicing using the Tekonsha Plug-In Wiring Adapter for Electric Brake Controllers part # 3064-P. You'll have to drill two small holes in the...

  • Recommended Factory Looking Running Boards/Nerf Bars for 2022 Chevy Silverado 1500 LTD
  • The Westin Outlaw Nerf Step Bars part # 58-54135 which are a fit for a 2022 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 LTD will sit pretty much directly under the cab, there is little to no space between the bottom of the body and top of the step. I have attched a photo to try and show this better. The steps are 5-1/2" wide from outside to outside. Unfortunately, Westin does not provide weight capacities for their running boards or nerf bars but I would say 300 lbs is a safe guess.

  • What Brake Controller do You Recommend for My 2022 Chevy Silverado 1500 LTD?
  • I can definitely help you out! According to my available specs for your 2022 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 LTD, you already have a 4-way and 7-way installed with your tow package. All you need to do is install the components that come with the brake controller itself. For a great brake controller, I recommend either the Tekonsha Voyager # 39510 or the Curt Echo # C51180. Both of these controllers are proportional controllers which means that the controller activates the trailer brakes in...
