Suspension Enhancement for a 2017 Chevy Silverado 2500

Question:

hello, I haul a travel trailer for camping, 35+ foot long and around 11-12k pounds. I have a 2017 chevy 2500HD 4wd, 6.0l. I have purchased in the past a equalizer hitch system. I was looking into the firestone brand of airbag systems for an even better ride? I was wondering if this would work good together or maybe there is another product to help with hauling a heavy load?

You were definitely looking in the right place because the Firestone suspension enhancement systems are going to give you the improved ride you were looking for. I recommend the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs # F2709, which are a confirmed fit for your 2017 Chevy Silverado 2500.

These air springs help maximize your load-carrying capacity, prevent bottoming out, and even improve your Silverado's handling due to the way they keep your truck level. The springs each have adjustable air pressure so you can set the system how you like it, and they install without drilling. The springs are made right here in the United States of America and come with a lifetime warranty.

To use air springs with a weight distribution system, you will want to set the air pressure in your air springs and set up your weight distribution system after that. I've added a link to a video review of this product for you, as well as some photos so you can see how the air springs look when installed.
