Will these shock's help stop my Tahoe from squatting when I hook up my boat&trailer?

No it did not for my Yukon. For that you will need to install air bags like this. AIR LIFT 60769 1000 Series Rear Air Spring Kit

Yes they will , depending on how heavy your boat is but I use this shocks on my flat bed dually and it improved from squatting

These shocks are meant to be more of an OEM replacement more than anything. I would look into a rear air bag assist kit or a set of heavy duty shocks for towing.
1815741
No they will not. If you are looking for something to keep your truck level when towing, you need either air shocks or a leveling system that includes an on board compressor. FYI, I used K.Y.B. shocks on two vehicles and have had problems with them, I will never buy them again. I have gone back to using Gabriel shocks.

I do not believe any shocks will help with that problem. You will need to add some airbags or helper springs.

I would have to say no... Not sure any shock will... Sounds more like Springs to me

Shocks are more of a dampening device. They keep you from having a rough ride or having your vehicle bounce all over the road. If you are putting a load on the rear and it squats, you probably want to look towards the coils. You can put in adjustable air bags (Check out 'Air Lift' brand) or stiffer/adjustable coils to rectify the squatting. The shocks may help a little....depending on how worn they are or if they are leaking. I don't know how big your boat is (tongue weight), what year your Tahoe is, how many miles on the current shocks, what suspension you have, ect.....so hard to answer in more detail. Hope that helps.

I installed these in combination with rear air bags so my suburban didn't squat at all. The shocks alone won't prevent squatting but definitely will firm up the ride and prevent body roll. Good luck

Unlikely since the coil spacing on typical rear springs is more than the thickness of the spacers. The spacers increase ride height by forcing the coils apart which increases the springs effective length and rate. If they don't touch adjacent coils there will be no impact and will fall out. This product is essentially limited to front springs. The lowest dollar solution for trailer load sagging is air shocks. Air shocks have a small impact on handling but the benefit is a "level" vehicle loaded and unloaded which helps maintain headlight aim.

I have a set of these on my 09 crew cab silverado. While they do not lift the rear end to speak of, they do prevent sagging when I use my 18' trailer loaded with a tractor. They are adjustable by means of tightening or loosening of the u-bolt clamps which stiffens the rear leaf springs. I don't think this is the product you want to lift the rear of your truck but it will prevent further sagging when trailering.

I would suggest leaves since it just squats on the one side. I personally would not put one of these on one side and a regular shock on the other.

No. These are only meant for a single axle trailer and are only used to level from side to side. You put it under the low wheel and bring the trailer to side to side level.

I,m sure they will not work. You will need a shock with longer travel. Look at different lift kit to see which rancho shock they offer with their 3'' lift kit. And then you will get the right length shock.

you need to get the ones for a four inch lift, or they will not have enough rebound. They are great shocks, mine are for three inch lift, check application chart.

All depends on how much weight is on the trailer and how much the trailer it weighs itself. This impact driver will snap screws if your not paying attention how deep you drive them. I would have to see a picture, but it could probably. I would recommend buying a impact wrench if the your stablizing your trailer with a large amount of weight on them. For example I use my impact driver for driving screws and losing and tighting bolts that need to be tight. I wouldn't try taking off a car lug nut with it though.

Sorry for my delay.. Mine too are angled and it worked fine. my trailer had a lot of wiggle (if you will). and these stabilizers stopped most of it..

I think you could hook them up to a manual air supply or override the onboard controls and do what you want. I have used air shocks with a manual fill before and it worked.

No idea. They are a shorter than stock shock for my 2500hd that's lowered a little. Reason why I bought them. I can't give you a accurate answer on if they will fit. Sorry

Nope, not anti shock. But, unless that's a perquisite, for the money these are very good poles. Hope this helps.

Steve I have the same truck. These will lift the rear end like 1 1/2 inches. Makes the truck look tougher. I toe my boat and trailer with no problems. I recommend these.

These jacks are primarily for stabilizing trailers. They do not " jack up" (or down), but rather, their movement is accomplished by turning the screw. I hope I've given you a proper description from which to determine their suitability for your specific need.

I would have to say no. These are air shocks that rise when you put air in them, not lower. You want air bags and even then you are going to have to completely modify the spring perches and shock mounts. Don't know exactly how you are going to do that, but lower? Don't think these are what you are looking for...

hey ... im pretty sure that it doesnt go on the shock ... just mount it on top of the axel where it would normally bottom out. there may be a rubber boot thing you may have to cut out

No, these just bolt in place and your existing shock will extend just fine. I have put these on 3 different carts and they work great. However, your biggest hurdle may be getting the old bolts out of the existing springs. Spray them with WD40 a day in advance.
