No the 2021 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD does not need any suspension enhancement. It can tow as is but suspension enhancement could enhance the towing experience.

The 2021 Chevy Silverado 2500 HD comes in several configurations and cargo bed and cab styles, the towing capacity ranges from 14,500 pounds to 18,500 pounds.

Suspension enhancement DOES NOT increase towing capacity it will help prevent "rear sag" and improve stability and braking while driving, keeping you safer. It will also improve the ride of the vehicle and make it more pleasant and easier on you and the truck.

If you want a smoother and safer ride we have the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs - Double Convoluted - Rear Axle # F2613 that is compatible with 2 and 4 wheel drive.
