Is the RoadActive Suspension an Upgrade to TorkLift StableLoad & SumoSprings Helper Springs

Question

Question:

I tow a 33 ft TT that is about 7800 lbs with a 2009 Suburban 2500 4x4.. I currently have Torklift with Sumo Springs on the suspension.. Would the RoadMaster Active Suspension be better or worse for my set up? No issues with current set up just wanting the best ride and support. Thanks

Expert Reply:

The RoadActive Suspension Custom Leaf Spring Enhancement Kit # RAS4611 would provide a slight upgrade in the sense that it would provide you with a set-it and forget-it option that wouldn't require you to connect and disconnect when you hook up and unhook your trailer like the TorkLift StableLoad Suspension Upgrade # TLA7310S.

That being said, you most likely would not notice any sort of ride upgrade using the RoadActive Suspension Custom Leaf Spring Enhancement Kit # RAS4611 versus the TorkLift StableLoad Suspension Upgrade # TLA7310S and SumoSprings Trailer Helper Springs # TSS-107-40 you are using now.

Since the pin weight of your camper is 2.1k, I recommend going with the LoadLifter 5000 opposed to the 7500. While technically there is not reason you couldn't use the 7500 kit, it really is not necessary for a camper like yours. Generally the…
