What is the cheapest and easiest way to stiffen up the rear suspension on a 16 Yukon slt non towing package. I do not have the auto leveling shocks. The ride is amazing when driving normal but when I put my boat on there it sags a little bit. Is there a quick fix?

What about replacing the bump stop?

With what something bigger? That would make your ride terrible.

As already mentioned, some air bags "helper bags" contact Tony he has a set-up he's been installing. I'd also look into adding some beefier sway bars as it will reduce body roll and some of the lateral "softness" you may be feeling while towing.

Rear air bags are usually what people throw in there to tow more so level and not squatted.

You could also lower the rear (level or drop the front too). That would help stiffen the rear too.

And then there are sway bars. My hellwigs go on tomorrow.

I can’t see how lowering would help with towing, would it?
