I have a solution for you, but we won't offer anything to replace the factory coil springs on your 2000 Chevy Suburban. I recommend going with the Sumo Springs Solo Custom Helper Springs # SSR-204-40 . As opposed to some of the air suspension systems, these SumoSprings are going to provide you with the support you're looking for to help take some of the pressure of your stock suspension system, while being maintenance free; you won't need to worry about installing an air compressor, or airing them up before carrying a heavy load in your Suburban since these are going to sit on top of your existing coils. These springs are great for no load or maxing out the payload carrying capacity and will work independently to help when carrying off-center loads.

While the spacers included in the Kit #T68MR will work with your Timbren Springs #TGMRYS4 they do not use the same mounting bolts. Your GMC Yukon uses 3/8" hardware while the spacer kit includes M10 hardware so you would still need to source the…
