Expert Reply:
The Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System part # TGMRCK15S is a great option to help reduce sag while towing with a 2017 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 but they do have a tendency to ride rough as the material is very dense. I think the perfect option for a compromise between support and comfort are the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs part # SS95MR. These ride much smoother than Timbrens and still provide support for towing or hauling.
