Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System # TGMRCK25D Recommendation for a 2011 Chevy 2500 HD 4WD

Question

Question:

I have a 2011 Chevy 2500HD 4X4 diesel with the B and W turn over ball under bed gooseneck hitch. I use the Companion 5th wheel hitch to tow a 10000lb 5th wheel trailer. Is this a compatable air lift system?

While this Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System, part # TGMRCK25D, is not an air lift system it is comparable to one.

This system uses rubber springs instead of air bags that will sit above the axle, helping to stabilize and level the vehicle when towing your Companion 5th wheel trailer. The functions and benefits of this product are similar to an air bag/lift system but also has many advantages over one.

This system is much easier to install than air springs - there are no hoses to run, no compressors or gauges to hook up, and no manual adjustments to make. Basically you will just install the rubber spring and then let it do all of the work.

You will not have any interference issues with you gooseneck hitch either.

I attached installation instructions for this product for you to check out also.

It sounds like the purpose of getting the air helper spring would be to counteract the 1 inch compression you're getting in your rear suspension caused by the pin weight of your 5th wheel. If that's the case, I believe that the AirLift 5000…
