Question:

Should I use the Timnren rubber shocks or super springs on my 2013 Silverado 2500 HD? I have a Lance 865. Or?

Choosing the best suspension enhancement system will depend on how often you have your Lance 865 on your 2013 Silverado 2500HD.

If you will be keeping the camper on your vehicle full time, or close to full time, the Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System # TGMRCK25D will be a good option. This is a set it and forget it type product and will definitely get you the added support needed. However, this is not adjustable.

I tend to prefer the Firestone Ride-Rite Red Label Extreme Duty Air Helper Springs # F2709 due to their adjustability. This will still provide up to 7,500 pounds of support (at 150 psi) when needed, but can then be deflated to 5 psi, making them feel nonexistent when not needed.
