I have a 2012 Chev Avalanche Truck. I think it’s rated for 7200 lbs. That’s what it says on the door for GVRW. I read the it is rated fro 7900 lbs with the towing package and accessories. So 7,200 to 7,900 lbs ?
I just bought a Curt TruTrack 10,000 lb. weight distribution hitch.

My question is. My truck has coil springs in the back. The guy at the suspension shop said airbags in these truck do not work well and get a hole in them. So junk. He said the best if I need it is variable springs. New coils.
The trailer I just bought is a 229 VSD 5,200 lbs dry. Probably something like 6,500 lbs loaded.
Do I need to get the new coil springs as well as the weight distribution hitch ?
