Our all-new chassis features a high-strength, fully-boxed steel frame that's 5 times torsionally stiffer than before and lets 2011 Silverado 2500HD for sale in Dallas shoulder up to 4,192 lbs. of payload.
Available at Classic Chevrolet, the Chevrolet Silverado suspension got a complete redesign with bigger, stronger components engineered to handle increased loads and improve ride quality over the previous generation. The fully boxed frame and all-new front and rear suspensions are the biggest reasons for the huge increases in Gross Vehicle Weight Ratings:
- Massive components include three-inch wide rear leaf springs and precision-forged upper control arms.
- The new independent front suspension allows each front wheel to react independently to rough terrain, helping keep each wheel in a vertical position and more firmly planted on the road
- To better manage larger capacities, the steering knuckle is taller and 66% heavier than before
- The rear suspension includes 20% wider leaf springs with an asymmetric design that reduces wheel hop on acceleration and better handles increased payloads.
