What year is your 8.1L Suburban?
If GMT800 (2000-2006), then the receiver should be replaced with a proper one. The
OEM receiver bends and consume WD forces. So it DOES NOT transfer as much weight

the bumper crumple zone. Why it is rated or limited to a max of 1,000 in WD mode
But you said 8.1L and IIRC, there is no big block offered on the GMT900 platform
