1988 chevy 3500 is lowered 7 inches and I need a helper spring setup. Still wanna tow big!?

1988 Chevy 3500 been lowered 7 inches in the rear and has a c notch. I have a 34 foot travel trailer I would still like to pull but I'm not sure I can do this without bottoming out. I figured a helper spring would solve this. Anyone have any idea or the location of a place that sells what I need would be a huge help.

    A set of Timbrens or auxiliary air bags might help, but you should return the vehicle to stock ride height to tow that large of a trailer properly.

    With an axle flip and C notch, I would install helper air bags to tow. Get yourself a mini truckin magazine or a lowrider mag and look in the back at the adds for air bags and brackets. They are easy to install if you have a drill or are able to weld.

    A truck set-up like that isn't an ideal tow rig (for something that big), but put airbags in it & it should work.
