Recommended Rear Suspension Enhancement for 2018 Chevy Silverado 1500 with 2 Inch Lift
Question:
What rear suspension enhancement kit do you recommend for my 2018 Silverado 1500 that has a 2 inch suspension lift?

Expert Reply:
For your 2018 Chevy Silverado 1500 with the 2 inch lift I recommend the Air Lift LoadLIfter 5000 Air Helper Springs # AL57204 because of their superior mounting brackets. The brackets feature unique upper and lower roll plates to both increase the spring capacity and also protect them from damage, resulting in a longer lifespan.
This system will provide the rear suspension of your Silverado 1500 with 5,000 pounds of load-leveling support and the air springs can be adjusted (5 psi to 100 psi) to ensure a comfortable ride regardless of your load. To accommodate for the 2 inch suspension lift on your truck you will just need to add the 2 Inch Spacers # AL52420.
I have attached an installation video of this system on the 2017 model Silverado 1500 that you can use for reference.
I also recommend adding a compressor kit like the Air Lift Load Controller II # AL25592 so that you can adjust the springs from the comfort of your cab.
