How To Prevent Suspension Sag When Towing Trailer W/ 2006 GMC Yukon Denali Using Weight Distribution

Updated 03/25/2021 | Published 03/23/2021

Question:

I have an 2006 Yukon Denali AWD. I have replaced the air suspension with heavy duty shocks. Im pulling a travel trailer which has a 800lb tongue weight and a 6600 lb trailer. I have a 1000lb weight distribution hitch, but my suspension is still sagging a bit. What is the best way to remedy some of the sag?

First things first I recommend double checking that your weight distribution system is adjusted correctly to allow your 2006 GMC Yukon Denali AWD to be level when towing.

If the system is adjusted correctly per the instructions included with your hitch, then I recommend adding the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs # SSR-204-40 which is confirmed to fit your vehicle and offers 1000lbs of load leveling support to get rid of the slight sagging you have.

I included a video of the # SSR-204-40 for you to take a look at.
