Question:
I own a 17 Colorado and I travell a lot on high ways and carry motorcycles on my bed truck like 1 a month and tow a 7000lbs tráiler like 1 a yaer, but as well i take some off roads to get to my weekend house, my problema is allways the bumps are to harsh, either when loaded or off road, which of the 2 different timbren enhancement parts would you recommend.

Expert Reply:
Really the only difference between the Timbren part # TABSGMFCC and part # TABSOSR for your 2017 Chevrolet Colorado is that the former is rated for up to 1,000 lbs while the latter is rated for up to 3,600 lbs. Out of these options I would go with the set that has a higher rating. Since you do off-road driving you will want to use the off-road bumpstops referenced above.
If you are looking for ride comfort though I recommend going with the SuperSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs # SSR-212-40. The Timbrens help with a load but customers have reported that they make the ride more stiff when no load is present. The SuperSprings actually have great customer feedback whether the vehicle is loaded or unloaded which is why I recommend going this route. SuperSprings bump stop systems can be used both on- and off-road.
I have attached review videos of each product for you to reference.
