Hey Vince, welcome back. The only RoadActive Suspension Custom Leaf Spring Enhancement Kit we have for the 2017 Chevy Colorado is the item # RAS4617 you referenced. This is an adjustable 2,000 lbs rear suspension support system which enhances your factory suspension to fight sagging and wheel hop. The 2,000 lbs system item # RAS4617 is just above your Colorado's 1,574 lbs payload capacity, which is why there's no higher systems.
What are you towing or hauling in the bed of your Colorado?

Hey Vince, did the adjustable 2,000 lbs suspension system work out for your Chevy Colorado? I'm curious about what you're towing or hauling, as it might help others with similar setups.
