Features to know about

Stay Level When the Load Gets Heavy: 3,500-lb Helper Spring Support

When a trailer or bed load pushes your rear suspension down, the Hellwig Load Pro 35 helper springs deliver 3,500 lbs of extra support. They bolt above your factory leaf springs to prevent sagging when towing or hauling heavy loads. With the added support, your truck stays level so steering, braking, and headlight aim stay consistent under stress.

Keep Control Through Turns and Bumps: Reduced Sway and Bounce

Weight shifts or uneven roads can make a loaded vehicle sway or bounce. These heavy-duty helper springs flex with your factory leaf springs to limit body roll while providing optimal stability. The result is a smoother ride that feels more controlled through corners, highway dips, and uneven terrain.

Handle Uneven Loads with Ease: Independent Side Adjustment

Sometimes one side of the load is heavier than the other. The Load Pro 35 lets you adjust the driver’s and passenger’s sides independently to balance uneven loads. You can fine-tune tension on each spring so your truck rides level no matter how cargo weight is distributed.

Built to Last Through Real Work: Durable Steel Construction

The durable steel design and silver vein hammer tone powder coat finish resist corrosion and hold up through constant use. The bolt-on installation kit is included for a straightforward setup above your existing leaf springs. Once installed, you’ve got reliable load support that extends the life of your suspension, tires, and brakes without changing your truck’s weight-carrying capacity.

GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE



by:

Great service,people are great to work with, they back every they sell.
I've used E-Trailer for years



by:

The product is great and installed fairly easy. The only issue I had was the box was not secure upon arrival and we had to make two plates that were missing. The box needs to be heavier.



by:

Customer service person Jill is a diamond in the rough, a consummate professional diservant of a pay raise. The Pro 35 helper springs exceeds my expectations.



by:

Easy installation,

etrailer customer support was great! Shipment to AK got damaged first time and they responded very quickly and sent me all the replacement parts I needed. The product is great and would definitely buy again if I swap out to a new truck!



by:

I was very disappointed. etrailer only sent 1 of the two packages that was part of the complete item, shipped in two separate packages. I contacted them and they side it would be 45 days before they would receive the complete item.
I decided to return the first package and will try to find this item where I can get it sooner.
I have ordered other things from etrailer and have not had any problems.



by:

The motorhome we own is famous for a droopy rear end, scraped bottom on any slope. We spent 2 months in Alaska including a trip to the Arctic Circle. The The Hellwig helper springs made a world of difference,no bottoming of the rear end.I have purchased a lot of products from etrailer and always found the to be; price competitive, good quality, fit accurate, in stock, fast shipping and provide before & after sales suppore.



by:

Springs fit well. Seem to help with squat. Wish you did will call instead of shipping.



by:

Hard to review a product the day after it arrives sometimes. I did however mock the overloads up on the truck to make sure everything was going to fit. I need these to help with tongue weight on a bigger fifth wheel rv I tow. I like the fact that I can adjust preload tension. I also have timbrens under the truck but need to correct some sway under windy conditions. Time will tell.

  • Will SumoSprings Rebel Custom Helper Springs Fit 2000 Ford F-350 With Gooseneck/5th Wheel Hitch
    Hi Paul, welcome back! That is correct. The SumoSprings Rebel Custom Helper Springs # SSR-101-40-2 will not fit with the gooseneck hitch or a 5th wheel hitch because of where they install. I would stick with # HE22XR we previously talked about.

  • SuperSprings or Hellwig Load Pro 35 For 2000 Ford F-350
    Hey Paul! What kind of cattle do you have? Both are good systems that offer the same level of support. However, for your particular use I would choose the Hellwig Load Pro 35 # HE22XR. The Hellwig is a really simple system that mounts to your leaf springs using U-bolts. The SuperSprings # SSA13 are a bit fancier with the rollers and shackle. This works well but, with the nature of your work and frequent off-road use I think you're better off with the simple system that won't have any issues...

  • Availability of a 7,500 lb Air Bag Kit for a 2005 Ford F-350 Super Duty
    Hey J, thanks for reaching out! Air bag suspension kits are vehicle specific both for the mounting hardware and the bags themselves. After looking at what the manufacturers list as fits for your 2005 Ford F-350, I'm not seeing that anyone has produced a kit rated for 7,500 lbs like the Air Lift # AL57595 you asked about. Because of this, I recommend installing the Hellwig Load Pro 35 # HE22XR in addition to your air bag kit to help fight that squat you're seeing from your truck. This...
