How much squat can I expect?
I'm looking at a new 2020 Duramax 3500 4x4 (crew, standard box). The bed rails are 59" off the ground (3" taller than my 16 year old Dodge 3500). The bed is also 3" taller than my existing truck at 3...

I purchased a 2020 Chevy 2500HD in May. Had the same problem with the bed rail higher than my old 2500hdHD. I hooked up the 5th wheel with the proper 6" clearance between rail and trailer. I then pulled the trailer up on boards till I found out how much I was going to need to raise my 5th wheel. 3" was needed. My axles are already under leaf springs so I found 3" trailer blocks from a company in Canada called Trailer Blocks. (Trailerblocks.com). Install was pretty easy and my only problem is my step up into tailer is 3" higher, not a real problem.
This sounds intriguing. A 3" lift should make up for the 3" that the new truck will be over the old one. Are these pretty safe? I thought my only option was going to be a subframe with cross supports.
