Stiffening suspension

Does anyone out there think it is necessary to beef up the rear suspension when carrying a demountable? I have mounted my Northstar 700 on a Hilux double cab and while it drives fine i do notice the bonnet is "up".

Probably a car park not too far away to test things out! After that Devon and Cornwall first as they're not far away. Cheers

Northstar 700 on Hilux double cab
