Question:

Hello. I have a 2021 chevy express 2500 passenger van. Our new camper is causing some rear sagging. I am looking at the RAS system, and noticed there are 2 for my van. What is the difference? Also, would you recommend this over an air bag system? We have the Recurve system for sway and weight distribution. Also, if I did get the RAS, would it raise the rear of the van when Im not hauling the camper or can the adjustability of it allow it to keep it level?

I would be happy to help!

The difference between the two RoadActive Suspension Leaf Spring Enhancement Kits for your 2021 Chevrolet Express Van 2500 is the # RAS2611-V is for cargo vans, and the # RAS2613-M is for passenger vans.

Since your van is a passenger van you will need the # RAS2613-M.

I do recommend this over an air helper spring kit, as it has no maintenance once installed and not only helps with suspension sag when towing or carrying a heavy payload but also eliminates axle wrap, fights sway, and leads to an overall more enjoyable towing and non-towing driving experience.

This kit will not raise your van when it is not towing, and simply engages as the leaf springs start to compress.

Now since you have a weight distribution hitch installed, I would double check that it is adjusted correctly as you should not have much if any sagging with a properly set up weight distribution hitch. We do not offer Recurve hitches so I do not know the specifics on how it is setup, but referring to the instruction manual the came with the hitch will point you in the correct direction.

I included a video of the # RAS2613-M for you to take a look at.
