Best Rear Suspension Upgrade For 2023 Jeep Gladiator Pulling 2017 Lance 1985 Travel Trailer

Question:

Hello, We own a 2023 Jeep Gladiator Rubicon. We also bought a 2017 Lance 1985 Travel Trailer as it was with the weight limit for pulling but we made the rookie first timers of not realizing it had such heavy tongue weight. Would these air shocks be a sufficient supplementary solution?

Hello Tammi, thanks for reaching out. You are on the right track here. The Air Lift LoadLifter Air Helper Spring Kit # AL88FF is exactly right for your 2023 Jeep Gladiator Rubicon. They will help it handle the tongue weight much better. The rear end will be leveled out which means better stability, handling and braking. This kit also comes with bottom cradles so you can still take your Gladiator off road and not have to worry about limiting the suspension travel or overextending the bags. It'll be a great add-on, especially if you plan to tow frequently or over long distances. Those drives will be much more comfortable.
