Best Way to Improve Ride of 2018 GMC Sierra 1500 With MagneRide Suspension

Question:

My RV is total 35 ft, 7800 lbs, 1/2 ton towable with 873 lbs tongue weight, with a Hensley Arrow hitch rated up to 14000 lbs, When I first bough RV I had a 2005 GMC Denali 1/2 ton with 18 inch wheels and Michelin tires, with RV and truck adjusted level truck rode great, I now have 2018 GMC Denali 1/2 ton with 22 in wheels and Michelin tires with Magnetic Ride Control, with truck and RV level truck is a very rough ride, when I adjust hitch till truck and RV aren't level truck rides better but still rougher than 2005 truck, Is this because of 22 inch wheels or magnetic ride control. Will SumoSprings help or is there something else that will, and I don't want to hurt ride of truck when not towing

While the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs # SSR-209-40 are a good option for your 2018 GMC Sierra 1500 Denali with MagneRide suspension, and they won't harm the ride when you are towing, there is a better option for your truck.

The best way to improve your overall ride is with the RoadActive Suspension Custom Leaf Spring Enhancement Kit # RAS2611.

This kit will fit your Denali with the MagneRide suspension, and is going to not only help improve your ride quality when towing, but also won't hurt the ride of your truck when you aren't towing. The reason is because this is an active system; so the force normally put on your truck's springs gets transferred to the RAS Enhancement Kit, allowing your original springs to work as normal.

The RAS engages your system, which means it helps in all aspects of your ride - leveling, squat, wheel hop (bouncing), stability, sway - so you have a much more comfortable experience whether you are towing or do not have a load on your truck.
