Using a RoadActive Suspension System for Trailer Sway on a 2021 Chevy Silverado 1500
Question:
We own a 19FBS and tow with a 2021 1500 Silverado with 9600lb tow capacity and tongue weight capacity of 960lbs. Without understanding how heavy it was we had the dealer install a Reese WDH. We try to watch the weight we carry and follow the 60/40 rule in loading the trailer. Tongue weight is at 720lbs when fully loaded for camping minus water with two propane tanks and two batteries. The issue is we still have some sway on the highway traveling at 60-65 MPH when semis pass. Would a Road Master Active Suspension Help?

Expert Reply:
Yes, the RoadActive Suspension Custom Leaf Spring Enhancement Kit item # RAS54FR will help you deal with sway by adding stability in your rear suspension. This kit is confirmed to fit your 2021 Chevy Silverado 1500. The RoadActive Suspension provides a much safer ride by reinforcing your factory leaf springs and stabilizing your load. This helps prevent sway from occurring and reduces the chance of body roll while being passed on the highway. This system will also combat the rocky motion you are experiencing.
