Question:
Hi i was wondering if these helper air suspension kits will work on my lowered 2016 silverado. I have a flip kit on the rear which lowered the vehicle about 6 inches. I bottom out sometimes when i have a heavier load and when i hit big dips at higher speeds. I am looking for a way to keep the rear suspension from bottoming out so easily. I no longer have the bump stops on the frame they where removed after installation of flip kit.

I only have one possible option that will work with your lowered 2016 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 as the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Bags # AL88204 and most other systems require the vehicle to be at factory ride height.
The TorkLift StableLoad Suspension Upgrade Stainless Steel # TLA7310S or Black # TLA7310 are designed to fit between the spring pack and the lower overload spring. By eliminating the space between these springs it limits how far the suspension will travel and help prevent you from bottoming out.
