I'm assuming you're looking for a suspension enhancement product for your 2002 Suburban. Your best option would depend on what you're using the Suburban for. If you're wanting the suspension product to counteract sag experienced when a trailer is hitched, you'd be better served by using a weight distribution system. If you'd care to reply with some more information about the trailer you're towing, and its fully loaded and ready to tow tongue weight (see link for ways to determine this), I'd be happy to make a specific recommendation.

However, if you're wanting the suspension enhancement to help suspend a load carried in the vehicle itself, a solution like the Air Lift # AL60769 or the Timbren # TGMRYS4 for 2WD or # TGMRG25C for 4WD models would be the better choice. If the weight of the load you carry is pretty consistent, the Timbrens would be a fine alternative, but it the weight you carry varies, an air spring like the Air Lift would be a better choice as you can adjust the stiffness of the springs.

I've linked you to some FAQ articles about weight distribution and vehicle suspension enhancement.
