Expert Reply:
The main difference between the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs part # SSR-207-47 and the Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System part # TGMRCK25D for a 2017 GMC Sierra 2500 is the hardness. The Timbrens are much harder than the SumoSprings therefore will provide more support. That said, this also means that the ride quality while loaded will be less desirable.
The best option really just depends on which you will be doing more of, if you will be towing mostly then go with the SumoSprings but if you will be using the truck bed camper mostly then go with the Timbrens.
