Features to know about

Keep Your Truck Level Under Load: 3,500-lb Helper Spring Support

Big trailers or heavy bed loads can make the rear of your truck sag and mess with steering and braking. The Hellwig Load Pro 35 Progressive Helper Springs add up to 3,500 lbs of load-leveling support above your factory leaf springs to keep things even when towing or hauling. By taking pressure off your stock suspension, tires, and brakes, these helper springs help your truck stay level and steady no matter what you’re carrying.

Smooth Ride for Towing and Daily Driving: Progressive-Rate Spring Design

Some suspension upgrades feel stiff when empty, but these don’t. The progressive-rate spring design automatically adjusts to the weight on your vehicle, keeping the ride smooth when unloaded while firming up under load. That means you get a comfortable drive around town and dependable control when you hitch up a trailer or fill the bed with gear.

Better Handling and Control: Independent Side Adjustment

Uneven loads can make one side of your truck sag lower than the other. Each side of the Hellwig helper springs can be adjusted independently to level things out. This keeps your truck stable through turns, reduces sway, and helps steering feel balanced—even with a camper or uneven cargo in the bed.

Built to Last Through Real Work: Durable Steel with Corrosion-Resistant Finish

These helper springs are made from durable steel for long-lasting performance on tough jobs. The silver vein hammer-tone powder coat finish helps resist corrosion from road grime and weather. Once bolted above your factory leaf springs with the included installation kit, you’ve got reliable suspension support that’s built for years of towing and hauling.

I have a Chevy 1500, 2005 pickup and wanted to get a little more support on the back end when pulling trailers. Installation was easy and only took about an hour. It gives my truck a smoother ride when there’s a trailer or no trailer, I’m very happy with my decision to install the Hellwig spring supports.

  • Which Suspension Enhancement Upgrade Is Best For 1986 Square Body K3500 With Camper Shell On Back?
    Good afternoon Brandon! That's a cool old square body and camper shell! I have a 64 C10 that I've fixed up over the years so I always appreciate other GM classic trucks. For your 86 GMC K3500 I would go with Hellwig. RAS are great and there's nothing wrong with them by any means, but Hellwig is a top tier product. I have their anti-sway bar on my other truck and it's an excellent product. You'll want to go with the Hellwig Load Pro 25 Progressive Helper Springs # HE68XR or the Hellwig...
