Good morning Warren
You should try load leveler bars to get the Suburban to sit level. They are not
that expensive compared to replacing your rear springs. Your Suburban will still
have its nice ride when you are not towing With that much sag in the rear you will
not be able to corner very well especially in a emergency situation because you have
unweighted you front wheels. The load level bar will transfer some of the weight to
the front wheels and the trailer will track much better level and you will not be
hitting your hitch on every driveway or dip in the road. When we went to get my
cousins trailer we thought it was level but as we traveled down the road we figured
out that it was low on the tongue like yours in the picture and the trailer liked to
wag abit we stopped and replaced it with my hitch and that brought it up to level the
trailer stopped it tail wag so it is important to have your trailer and tow vehicle as
level as possible. Have fun and enjoy your new toy.
