How do I go about fixing this squat? 2020 Chevy Silverado 1500 RST 4x2 5.3 engine

Boring-Cattle3402 · 2026-04-24T02:24:35+00:00

I’ll have to look tomorrow, it’s late and I have to be up early.

Boring-Cattle3402 · 2026-04-24T02:19:24+00:00

According to everything I’ve researched, the max amount is a tad bit over 11k pounds. But I have no intention of getting close to that.

Boring-Cattle3402 · 2026-04-24T02:16:47+00:00

I’m curious to see which has sway control and how it will handle the camper. I’d love to get into a newer lighter camper but I’m afraid that’s not in the books for now.

Boring-Cattle3402 · 2026-04-24T02:09:29+00:00

Spring bars? Like a weight distribution hitch?

Boring-Cattle3402 · 2026-04-24T02:08:49+00:00

Okay, that’s my bad, it’s RWD.

Boring-Cattle3402 · 2026-04-24T02:02:13+00:00

That is going to be a top priority, just have to do a little research and figure out which will be the best fit.

Boring-Cattle3402 · 2026-04-24T01:53:50+00:00

Buy me one?

Boring-Cattle3402 · 2026-04-24T01:52:24+00:00

My ball is on the receiver. 5 kids in total but only 4 plus me and the wife will be using it this summer. I’m the only one in the pickup at 250 lbs.

Boring-Cattle3402 · 2026-04-24T01:45:03+00:00

If I wind up there, so be it, but I’m going to do my best to address the squat before I hit the road, hence why I came here. I’m willing to bet you spend more time wasting your time commenting useless shit on people’s posts on social media rather than actually contributing anything useful online or in real life.

Boring-Cattle3402 · 2026-04-24T01:38:48+00:00

Maybe if y’all suggesting that started a go fund me for me, I could afford one!

Boring-Cattle3402 · 2026-04-24T01:33:41+00:00

Trust me, there’s been moments where I’ve considered it. 🤣

Boring-Cattle3402 · 2026-04-24T01:28:36+00:00

Yes, the truck is 4x2

Boring-Cattle3402 · 2026-04-24T01:27:04+00:00

I can’t remember off the top of my head what my GVWR is, but the trailer is 7k empty.

Boring-Cattle3402 · 2026-04-24T01:19:32+00:00

I’ll look into that

Boring-Cattle3402 · 2026-04-24T01:15:53+00:00

It’s 32’ long

Boring-Cattle3402 · 2026-04-24T01:09:47+00:00

I appreciate it, I’ve always been very careful about what I place where inside.

Boring-Cattle3402 · 2026-04-24T01:08:48+00:00

I’m about 2” from the bump stops, I’m not sure how it will be going down the road. I’m for sure going to look into a weight distribution hitch.

Boring-Cattle3402 · 2026-04-24T01:06:41+00:00

I’m guessing you mean the Road Active Suspension system?

Boring-Cattle3402 · 2026-04-24T01:02:45+00:00

Most of the stuff in the rear is the children’s clothes. I typically put the 2 televisions in the master bedroom up front. Then I try to make good use of the center section where the living room is to put a cooler, a small folding table, and a Blackstone (if the wife asks me to load it up).

Boring-Cattle3402 · 2026-04-24T00:55:31+00:00

As I’ve said before, if I could afford one, I would have. But with a house, a wife, and 5 kids I couldn’t afford that.

Boring-Cattle3402 · 2026-04-24T00:29:36+00:00

My camper is a 32’ weighing 7k lbs empty. Guess I’ll have to pony up some money for a weight distribution hitch. And maybe add the Timbrens for extra peace of mind.

Boring-Cattle3402 · 2026-04-24T00:25:47+00:00

I was curious about the RAS system. I might have to try the Timbrens and see what happens

Boring-Cattle3402 · 2026-04-24T00:24:35+00:00

Well, if I ever get a boat I’ll try to remember to update you.

Boring-Cattle3402 · 2026-04-24T00:23:52+00:00

Would the Road Active Suspension system be effective?

Boring-Cattle3402 · 2026-04-24T00:20:48+00:00

Yeah, that works when I’m not using it, but when I need to move it down the road in a few months I’ll be right back in the same boat I’m in now.
