Question:
I need help preventing squatting under heavy loads for a 2020 Chevrolet HD2500 Deisel Truck. Which Stable load suspension stabilizer would work best. Thanks

Hey Paul; if you're wanting the actual StableLoad stabilizers from TorkLift I will need to know your cab size and bed length. We don't carry all of the options for this on a 2020 Silverado 2500 so some parts may need to be added if that is what you're looking for. If you're just looking for the best suspension enhancement option it is the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs # F2613 you were looking at.
Air bags do such a great job because they are fully adjustable. You can set them for the load you're carrying, and also run them at the minimum 5 psi when you aren't towing or hauling for zero impact on unloaded ride quality. Firestone makes the best, most durable air bags so they are also the most reliable. These have a 5,000 lb load-leveling capacity and come with a limited lifetime warranty on the air springs.
I also recommend adding an air compressor like the Air Lift Air Shock # AL25804. This will allow you to adjust the air bags from the cab of your truck no matter where you go. This is a single path system so it will adjust the pressure equally between the two air springs.

Hey Paul, how did the Firestone Ride-Rite air bags work out on your Silverado 2500 when hauling heavier loads? Your feedback could really help others trying to reduce squatting on similar trucks.
