Question:

Need two cents ?? So, I have a 2019 Tahoe. Going to pull a 29’ apex ultra lite 5000 lb 2100 miles. I have an older anti sway / load distribution hitch, but want to enhance everything else. For the Tahoe, you offer air bags for the existing springs - or add on springs. Want to minimize the sag, and not put all the tension on the distribution hitch. For the trailer, you offer Moryde and Road Armor equalizer kits too many stories of factory failures. Coachman Apex 2016 269RBSS I’m a fairly good DIY guy and would like to know which of each you recommend and an idea of ease of installation. I have new tires from you and it is a dual axle. Want to minimize any “ break- down” incident on my trip. Thanks

For an air bag kit that fits your 2019 Chevy Tahoe the Firestone Coil Rite kit part # F4147 is your best option as it has the highest quality bag available and would give you ability to add exactly as much suspension support as you'd need by adjusting the air pressure in the bags. The bags of this kit basically just slip between the coils of the spring for installation. The jounce spring solutions are great too like with the Timbren part # TGMRYS4 but the support they provide isn't adjustable and have a tendency to be a little harsh.

For cushioned equalizers for your Coachman Apex 2016 269RBSS I would recommend the MORryde CRE3000 # MR87ZR as it has a great reputation as providing a noticeably improved ride quality, is reliable, and comes with a great 2 year warranty.
