Hey Dean, so the big difference is the capacity of the two SumoSprings kits # SSR-209-40 and # SS45MR that fit your 2017 Chevy Silverado 1500. The part # SS45MR has a 2,800 lb weight capacity and the # SSR-209-40 is 1,000 lb.

The higher the capacity the more support but the higher the chance the ride quality might suffer or be harsh. So depending on how bad you need the additional support is how you'd pick between the two.

Hey Dean, how did things turn out with the SumoSprings on your Silverado? Did the capacity you chose give you the right balance between support and ride comfort? Your feedback could really help others comparing these two kits.

@JamesonC Don't remember which one I used. I got rid of that truck and bought a 2025 chevy 2500HD and now have a 2026 Chevy 3500HD

@JamesonC So far, I don't even know I'm driving a different truck! But I haven't towed yet.
