I tow a 6000 Jayco and Polaris Ranger on occasion and Mine does not squat at all. I measured the distance from ground to wheel wells (front and rear) before and after and found less than a 1/4” difference. Sounds like you have too much tongue weight? My truck is a 2019 crew cab z71 4 wheel drive with regular cab. After 10,000 miles I changed all shocks to Eibach and love them.
Above is Backing into my spot at the deer lease. We are blessed with a steel pole barn that is 40’x160’ that is 59 years old. Below is in the driveway.
After driving trucks for over 45 years I can honestly say my 2019 is the best truck I have owned and the AMP steps I added are my favorite of all time.
I can not wear IWB - tried some and could not get comfortable. I have 5 pancake Style holsters from Simply Rugged and a heavy duty belt. I highly recommend them. The website is easy and you can call Rob with questions. If you get the right Belt and Holster you will love it. I carry cross draw on my left side so it does not hit my seat belt or my rifle when over my shoulder. Feels real natural to me. Good luck.
When I am on the way to my deer lease down south I wear OWB the entire weekend. When driving around town if not carrying I keep mine exactly where you do. I think it is very convenient!
I bought all 4 shocks for $435 and my mechanic charged $200. I got tired of waiting on the 4600 as I never wanted the 5100. Bilstein told me the 4600 is the best shock for stock height and for towing. I set the Eibach’s on stock height and it worked out great. Same height as stock and I only have 1/4” rake on my truck. The Eibach’s killed the chevy hop in the rear end and the truck drives much more planted.
I have the RST z71 5.3 with 5.3 and do not have a problem. I have 4,000 miles on my truck and drove 8 hours 2 days in a row. I do take my wallet out of my pocket as my sciatic nerve in my butt cheek hurts from time to time for years. I find the lumbar is great. I agree with FlatDale above. Go see a chiro or get a good deep tissue massage.
Look good! My RST came with liners but will keep these in mind if the GM’s don’t last. I had my 2011 wheel wells sprayed with my bed and it lasted great also.
