hidden hitch for 3/4 T

'72 GMC 2500 Super Custom Sub. is going to haul a 1972 28' Silver Streak trailer. dry weight 5500lbs., tongue weight is 800 lbs. options; 1 - replace rear coils (HD) and air shocks to keep Sub level with the trailer. would also like my Sub to remain level or not more than a 1 inch raise W/O trailer. 2 - replace coils and use air bags in the coils with regular shocks. looking for some help with your past experiences, and to locate a class V hidden hitch (magnum?). thanks in advance for the help, this site is great, has been a tremendous help for upgrading and new ideas.

Re: hidden hitch for 3/4 T

well today i saw a 1969 3/4 ton with the coil springs and the air bags on the same trailing arms meaning one one eather one me i'm looking at it for the leaf springs just to make the ride more enjoyable me i would never remove the coils there your last dich effert to being safe and if a air bag gose bad all you got left is the bumper or what ever you have there to keep it from coming down on your tire if i was you use drop springs so your running on the air bags all the time and if you have a blow out at least you can ride onthe coil until you can get it fixed or get you home thats me
