Video Transcript for Ultimate Overview of the Hellwig EZ-990 Helper Springs

Hello everybody, this is Jeff at etrailer.com. Today we're gonna take a look at the Hellwig's EZ-990 above axle helper springs for small trucks and SUVs. Now this is a custom fit part. This will fit many models of the Dodge, Ford, GM, and Toyota trucks, and SUVs. And because it fits so many different models, I do recommend for you to go to our website, use the fit guide, put in your year and model vehicle, and it'll show you if this will work for your application. Now these are custom helper springs.

These will upgrade your factory leaf springs to reduce sway and body roll. They'll help prevent sagging when you're towing or hauling light loads, and they'll extend the life of your factory suspension, tires, and brakes. These will flex with the leaf springs to limit bouncing while providing optimal stability. And what's nice, I want to zoom in and show you these U bolts here that you install them with. They can be adjusted to suit different loads.

The drivers and the passenger sides can be adjusted independently for uneven loads. And it's a very easy install. You bolt these above your factory leaf springs. As we mentioned, the mounting hardware you can see here is included, does come with a nice set of instructions. These are durable steel construction.

They ensure long lasting performance and they do have a nice finish to them, sort of a unique finish. Zoom in on that. If you look on the end here, this whole spring has what they call a silver vein hammer tone powder coat finish. That'll help resist corrosion, gives it a nice look to it. And these parts are made in the USA.

A few specs on this. The weight capacity is 2000 pounds. One thing I do wanna mention is these Hellwig helper springs will not increase your vehicle's weight carrying capacity. But that should do it for the review on the Hellwig EZ-990 above axle helper springs for small trucks and SUVs.
