Recommended SumoSprings for a 2023 Chevy Silverado 1500

Question

Question:

I am a landscaper and I haul a bunch of rock, mulch, bricks, trees, soil, you name it. I just upgraded to a 2023 Chevy Silverado 1500 and I am having way to much squat when I have a couple of yards of rock and dirt in the bed of my truck. Which SumoSprings would you recommend? Thank you.

Congrats on the upgrade! For your 2023 Chevy Silverado 1500, I recommend the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs item # SS45FR. These helper springs have a 1,500 lbs capacity that will keep your truck from squatting when you are loaded down with a bunch of dirt and rock.

I have linked an installation video to help you get them set up.
