Will RoadActive Suspension Kit Cause Interference With OEM Parts?
Question:
Do you know how this product, or more importantly, the leaf springs and ubolts on the truck hold up in the areas that have metal to metal contact? Is there any paint being removed? Rusting? Metal being removed due to friction over time? Are there any sounds that result from installing this product when the suspension is working?

Expert Reply:
The RoadActive Suspension Kit # RAS4611 that fits your 2016 Chevy Silverado 1500 will not cause additional rusting, damage, or sounds to the original parts on your truck.
The manufacturer specifically states this suspension kit has been engineered to fit "without any interference with the original equipment" provided, of course, that it is installed properly. It is an easy install, as you can see in the linked directions, so that should not be an issue.
