Question:

Thanks Jerred! What other suspension and towing pieces do you recommend? 2024 Chevrolet 3500 HD Dually 4x4 Northern Lite 10-2 pickup camper 3500lb dry Bumper Pull horse trailer 7000-8000 GVWR For the Hitch, I was Thinking the Torklift super Hitch with the torklift truss. 32 or 42 inch depending on if I remove rear porch from camper. For suspension I am thinking torklift upper and lower leaf suspension for starters. Then possibly the sway bar if necessary. Your thoughts / recommendations. Thanks! Chris

You're welcome Chris! Sounds like you've more then got the hitch covered. I can not think of a better option then the TorkLift SuperHitch Magnum Trailer Hitch item # TL74FR. You will be able to pull anything and everything with this hitch and it gives you the most options for capacity on extensions.

Additionally, down the road if you need a heavy duty weight distribution system the highest capacity one is the TorkLift SuperHitch Everest item # TLWD1000. It only works with TorkLift's Dual Hitch using the Adjustable Shank item # TLM9010.

Which ever extension you end up going with you will want to purchased the matching 7-way extension. I have listed them below:

TorkLift SuperTruss Hitch Extension 32" Long item # TLE1532 - 7-Way RV item # TLW6032

TorkLift SuperTruss Hitch Extension 42" Long item # TLE1542 - 7-Way RV item # TLW6042

As far as suspension enhancement goes I would go with a set of air bags since you're hauling an in-bed camper and pulling a trailer. I recommend the Firestone Ride-Rite Red Label Extreme Duty Air Helper Springs item # F2709. This have a 7,500 lbs load leveling capacity that will level out the rear end of your Silverado. All mounting brackets and hardware are included for installation.

The Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar item # RM25FR is compatible with the Firestone Air Bags.

I also recommend adding the Firestone Air Command Heavy Duty Air Compressor item # F56VV to your truck. This onboard compressor will allow you to adjust the PSI in your air bags from your phone.
