Question:

I have a 2003 1500 Silverado with a 5.3L. Looking to reduce torque hop. Pulling a 24’ 5th wheel. Also truck with airbags has a hard time recovering over large bumps. Might take 5 or 6 hops to recover, rather than the 2 that it should. I feel that this in combination would be the best of both worlds. Curious if they will fit. Looks to me like it should. Thank you for your help!

I confirmed with RoadActive Suspension that the RoadActive Suspension Custom Leaf Spring Enhancement Kit # RAS4611 will fit with your fifth-wheel hitch. This system is an all-in-one suspension system that improves stability, handling, and control. It also eliminates axle wrap, wheel hop, and bottoming out. It will help you eliminate torque hop and give you more recovery over large bumps.

As far as the compatibility of the Leaf Spring Enhancement kit and an airbag, the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Ultimate Air Helper Springs with Internal Jounce Bumpers # AL88250 (for both two-wheel and four-wheel drive models) will fit along with the RoadActive Suspension Custom Leaf Spring Enhancement Kit # RAS4611.
