Truck: 2015 Sierra SLT with 5.3L engine with 63000 miles. Factory Suspension, I did level the front with the Rough Country Kit.
So here is what I need help with....I'm going to be buying a travel trailer for my family. Looking at Models that are around 28-30ft and 4500-5500lbs unloaded (so no more than 7000-7500 total weight). I'm for sure going to upgrade my tires. I have Falken Wildpeak AT3's, 275/60/20. LOVE THEM....but they are due to be replaced anyways, so I'm going to go to an LT tire for more durability and security while towing. I'm going with either the Falkens again ($450each) or possibly General Grabber A/TX ($335 each) due to the fact tire prices are insane right now. I'll be going LT275/65/20.
I'm considering upgrading the suspension when I do the tires.
Reason:
The truck is now 7 years old and two it does have 63000 miles and most factory anything sucks.
I do use my truck to commute to work daily....60% highway and 40% city.
I don't want to go air bags....long story short....Not my thing. I wouldn't mind the truck being 2.5-3 inches higher in the front vs the current 2inches, and I want to keep the rear LEVEL with the front when towing and not towing. (If I have to have the rear .5inch higher than front to achieve...that's fine.)
I'll be using a weight distribution hitch to help even out weight distribution and leveling truck and trailer, but also for safety while towing.
It will be one very similar to this model. https://www.curtmfg.com/media/catalog/product/cache/79cd071aedf382ca8f4b5c9ae93ddae8/1/7/17500_1024x768_a.jpg
So....with a balance of improved daily driving and the addition of lots of summer towing trips....do you specifically have any recommendations for upgraded suspension that would be the best of both worlds vs my GM factory stocks?
I'm sure there are people in here that have been in this exact situation....so I really appreciate input from people who have been here and done this.
Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
