Suspension advice needed - Honda Pilot

luvinlyfe · 07-25-2011, 12:51 AM

I could use some advice concerning the suspension of my 2005 Pilot EXL, 111,000 miles. Sits level when unloaded but the rear drops dramatically when i have the boat on. The boat is 22 ft and about 2200 lbs (800 of that is the outboard motor). The same boat barely budged the rear of my 2008 Ridgeline. The steering is affected by the dropped rear end. I also notice that the steering seems loose even without the trailer on. Does anyone have suggestions for beefing up the rear suspension?

Thanks in advance.

Apart from it being time to replace shocks, sounds like looking into airlift and Firestone in the search function could help.

Disney.com: full install will run you about $ 4000 for parts and labor.
