Dial in your rear suspension for confident towing with RAS built for towing/load leveling. These helper springs reduce squat, help level the truck, and calm body roll and sway, all in a maintenance-free design that installs easily. Preload is adjustable to match your typical load, and heavy-duty options offer more support but can firm up the unloaded ride. Works great alongside a weight distribution hitch.
Yes, RAS works alongside weight distribution and sway control systems. Verify your hitch is tensioned correctly and the truck sits close to level, then add RAS to reduce squat and improve stability. Because RAS can raise the rear, you may need to recheck hitch height to keep the trailer level.
RAS reduces rear-end sag and helps stabilize the truck under load. It can lessen body roll and help the truck sit closer to level when towing. Expect some rear lift that can give the truck a rake. Check your weight distribution hitch setup first, then fine-tune RAS pre-load to dial in support.
Yes, installation is generally straightforward. There's often enough room to install without removing wheels, and universal instructions may apply. Set initial pre-tension evenly left and right, using the adjuster to match both sides. Recheck after your first tow and tighten or loosen as needed.
Pick based on the support you need. The standard kit has a weight capacity: 2,000 lbs and the heavy duty kit has a weight capacity: 3,000 lbs. If your typical load is on the higher side, the heavy duty can help; if not, the standard is recommended. You can adjust tension if it feels too stiff or not supportive enough.
It can, especially with a heavy duty setup and higher pre-load. Some trucks show minimal impact when empty, while others feel noticeably stiffer. Start with the lightest pre-load and test drive. If daily ride comfort is a priority, consider the standard kit and fine-tune the adjustment.
