Suspension enhancements are a great idea, and most definitely needed for your 2022 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD. Since you mentioned your trailer is 13,500lbs and the maximum towing capacity of your truck is 14,500lbs, you will be close to your trucks capacity.

You may notice some sag since your trailer is coming close to the maximum capacity of your truck, to help that I recommend the SumoSprings Rebel Custom Helper Springs # SSR-203-40-2. These helper springs will provide a much smoother ride, as well as, help reduce the sag in the rear of the truck.
