Thanks! Tell me more.. Did it raise the rear? Do you have a link to the product?

Curious what options there are to stiffen rear end a bit. I have already upgraded stock shocks to bilstein 5100 and it was an improvement in stability while towing. Now looking to eliminate the sag. Has anyone updated to max tow rear spring leaf? Is there a part number?

I dont agree that a larger truck is needed. This truck is perfectly capable towing a boat this big. Now if it was a camper, perhaps that would have been a different story. The boat I have is probably most I would tow with the 1/2 ton. How can I find out the part numbers on the max trailering package rear springs? I have read on numerous sites that they are stiffer. Curious if the parts are in fact different from what I have. Googling GM part numbers catalog is not coming up with anything productive.

I ll do a little more research on part numbers to see if they are different. Moved the boat back a few inches, that helped with the sag and tows little better. Feels like the actuator is no longer getting stuck.

3500 minimum.. I have been towing various toys for over 20 years. Having towed 9k 1200 miles with 1500 diesel, I would say that it is capable to pull a whole lot more. The most stable 1/2 ton platform I ever towed with. Having said that, If I upgrade my boat in the future, 2500 would be my choice.

yep will be checking that next. Are you saying max tow springs are not much different?

Not looking to increase towing capacity, but get rid of the sag. Don’t want to get involved with airbags. Adding a leaf is not an option, don’t want to raise the rear. Want to see if anyone did a swap using a max tow spring set.

First post here, and have to say a happy owner of the 2022 elevation with baby diesel. Great truck and luv the drivability of it. I bought it to tow my boat which is approx 9k lbs with trailer. The truck tows it perfectly fine, but the rear is sagging a bit. I am measuring 2.25 inch drop. I was wondering if anyone has done research to potentially swap out the rear springs on the standard elevation to a max tow leaf spring set? My understanding those are designed to carry more weight thus increasing the tow capacity. There are other things like different gears etc that at in the tow package that I am not going to tackle yet. But eventually will regear to 3.73 once the warranty period is up. Please post the part numbers for the rear springs if you have done similar swap. Thanks!
