lowered denali towing?

[TOWRIGG]

just did a mcgaughys deluxe 2/3 drop on my 03 denali along with 4 new arnott/bilstein shocks and a power stop brake kit....love the look and ride. my question is a what would be a recommended weight distribution bar/hitch brand and model to use to help keep the truck from sagging since I doubt the springs and air ride will be enough. I'm towing an open trailer about 1500-1800 lbs with a 3500# race car and figure my tongue weight to be about 500-600lbs. any help would be greatly appreciated.

you need airlift helper bags adn will tow fine. I do 5 inch drop on the autoride with my custom springs and helper bags and customers tow fine

was hoping not to have to go that route but I guess it's unavoidable.....thank you

x3 on helper bags, I've been towing with my 06 denali thats lowered 2/4 on tonys kit and in the spring my air suspension compressor went and i found out my shocks were leaking pretty bad. so i just fixed all that and added some helper bags in and now it tows way better then it did stock.

Why? It's one of the best and easiest mods to do. Even if you're not towing it's a good mod to do

Airlift FTW

Great warranty as well

Had mine for a while now

this is what I'm talking about you you don't even tow. It's just a great sub $100 mod to help/assist the rear of your truck

I'm sold......lol. The Airlift 1000 kit I was looking at says not for use with factory autoride. so which Airlift kit do I use?

You can use it with auto ride. What they mean by that is don't use them with your stock auto ride instead of the air shocks.

It depends on the height of your spring as to which bags to get. NorcalSS has a thread in his section on which ones to get
