Reducing Rear Suspension Sag on a 2021 Chevrolet Tahoe When Connecting To 18 Enclosed Trailer

Question

Question:

I have a 2021 chevy tahoe LT, will these sumos fit? It says the do not fit it, but in the questions and responses I saw these were recommended for another person with the same vehicle. Im getting quite a bit of sag when I hitch up my 18 foot enclosed trailer loaded with atvs and cant find anything that fits.

The SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs # SSR-204-40 are not confirmed fit for your 2021 Chevrolet Tahoe. The new chassis uses an independent rear suspension which no longer work with their springs.

Using a hitch like the Fastway e2 Weight Distribution # FA92-00-0800 will give you the best results when you tow your 18' enclosed trailer. This particular hitch is rated for trailers with 400-800lbs of tongue weight and a maximum trailer weight of 8,000lbs. The weight distribution bars will allow you to spread the tongue weight across your Tahoe and reduce the sag you are experiencing. It incorporates sway control into the hitch as well to keep your trailer tracking straight behind your Tahoe.

You will need a 1-7/8" 12pt Thin Walled Socket # ALL643216 to install either a 2" Ball # EQ91-00-6080 or 2-5/16" Ball # EQ91-00-6100 to match your trailer coupler.
