Question:

Hi, Im considering purchasing this Timbren system for my 2000 cheverolet silverado LS 2500 HD for towing my 5th wheel. My current rear bumpstop is held in by two bolts. The Timbren suspension is held by only one bolt. Is this still compatible with my truck since drilling isnt required?

The Timbren Rear Suspension Springs, # TGMRCK25S, will install on your 2000 Chevrolet Silverado LS 2500 HD without needing to drill new holes. The top of the mounting brackets for the Timbren springs have two holes that will use the existing holes from the factory bump stop. The underside of the mounting bracket has the round surface where the Timbren spring attaches using one bolt.

I have attached an image from the installation instructions showing how the Timbren mounting bracket uses the two existing bolt holes. I also made a video showing the bolt holes on the mounting bracket for you.
