Rear suspension setup for towing.

I believe the 891 is the 3" lift coil for extra weight

You're right! I fat fingered the keyboard on my iphone! #typical

I'm going to try to revise this thread and ask for an opinion here. I used to have a 2000. I had put the Moog springs on it, don't remember which shocks I used, because we tow a pop up camper and the stock springs were sagging A LOT! The Moogs weren't much better so I was planning on adding airbags when two cars of drunk people ran into it. So now I have a '15. Towing the same camper and looking to upgrade the suspension because once you get a couple hundred pounds of weight in there, the family, and add the trailer is is pretty saggy. I'd like to try to do this without airbags but this also needs to be pretty good without towing...I don't have constant weight. I'd like to get 3" of lift. This is a daily driver and camper tower. Any offroading is forest service roads, gravel roads, and dirt roads to remote places. I'm not looking to crawl rocks, just get to where I'm going, explore some minor offroading, safely tow a camper, and look cool doing it. I've been looking at all the options and get confused and then stop looking. I understand there are OME springs for different applications but I get confused about the "constant load" thing and how those springs will ride in my situation...will it suck? Will they damage things because they sit up too high? I also want a decent ride...dont' want to make it a whole lot more bumpy than it is now. Anyone have any similar needs? What have you done or what are you considering?

Thanks!
Eric.
