Will the Timbren Suspension Enhancement System Help Level my 2006 Buick Rainier When Towing
Question:
I have a AWD 2006 Buick Rainier with the factory load leveling option. I tow a Heartland Edge M21 travel trailer with a 364 lb. hitch weight. The load leveling system cant quite keep up to the extra weight. When it is able to fully pump up, everything is level. I wont hold though. I have been looking at manual air shocks and weight distribution hitches. I have had the weight distribution hitches in the past and they are a pain in the butt to work with. They work well, but I aint gettin any younger. Are the Timbren Suspension Systems Rubber Enhancement Springs a solution? I have very little sway, but no sway would be the best. What will make my towing experience the most pleasant

Expert Reply:
The Timbren Suspension Enhancement Systems can be a big help in situations like this where the factory suspension works fine, but it needs some help.
The Timbren SES will spread the axle load out a bit more and lighten the load on the auto-leveling suspension system. They are also less expensive and much easier to install than other systems available. And since you will be presumably towing the same trailer and load each time, you do not need an adjustable air bag system.
The rear axle Timbren SES kit for your 2006 Buick Rainier is part # TGMRETB. I have also included a link to the instructions so you can see how it installs.
