Which RAS Leaf Spring Enhancement Kit Fits A 2021 Chevrolet Express Van 2500 Passenger Van?
Question:
Hello. I have a 2021 chevy express 2500 passenger van. Our new camper is causing some rear sagging. I am looking at the RAS system, and noticed there are 2 for my van. What is the difference? Also, would you recommend this over an air bag system? We have the Recurve system for sway and weight distribution. Also, if I did get the RAS, would it raise the rear of the van when Im not hauling the camper or can the adjustability of it allow it to keep it level?

The difference between the two RoadActive Suspension Leaf Spring Enhancement Kits for your 2021 Chevrolet Express Van 2500 is the # RAS2611-V is for cargo vans, and the # RAS2613-M is for passenger vans.
Since your van is a passenger van you will need the # RAS2613-M.
I do recommend this over an air helper spring kit, as it has no maintenance once installed and not only helps with suspension sag when towing or carrying a heavy payload but also eliminates axle wrap, fights sway, and leads to an overall more enjoyable towing and non-towing driving experience.
This kit will not raise your van when it is not towing, and simply engages as the leaf springs start to compress.
Now since you have a weight distribution hitch installed, I would double check that it is adjusted correctly as you should not have much if any sagging with a properly set up weight distribution hitch. We do not offer Recurve hitches so I do not know the specifics on how it is setup, but referring to the instruction manual the came with the hitch will point you in the correct direction.
I included a video of the # RAS2613-M for you to take a look at.
