When heavy loads or trailers push down the rear of your vehicle, it can throw off steering and braking. These SumoSprings Solo helper springs add up to 1,400 lbs of support at 50-percent compression to keep your ride level and steady. They absorb bumps and shocks while helping your factory suspension carry the weight, so your handling stays predictable and your headlights stay aimed where they should.
You don’t want a stiff ride when you’re running light, but you need firmness when the weight piles on. These helper springs use progressive load control — compressing easily at first for a softer ride, then stiffening as the load increases. They can compress by as much as 80 percent to support heavy cargo without bottoming out, keeping your factory suspension from wearing out under strain.
When a curve or uneven load tries to shift weight to one side, each spring works on its own to keep that side planted. This independent action helps reduce body roll through turns and keeps off-center loads from making the vehicle lean or sway. The result is steadier handling and better control when you’re towing or carrying gear.
Forget about air lines or pressure checks — these one-piece urethane springs are completely maintenance-free. The microcellular material resists oils, road salts, and UV rays, performing reliably in temperatures from -25?°F to 200?°F. They compress vertically with minimal side expansion, so they fit snugly in tight spaces without rubbing nearby parts. Once installed with the no-drill mounts, they’re ready for years of smooth, stable hauling without adjustment or upkeep.

Wow, does your son need a job as an installer!? 2 minutes has to be record time. It looks great Patrice! What kind of Travel Trailer do you have? Would love to hear how the springs perform when you take it out.

Glad to hear they are helping, Barron! I get wanting to step up to the heavier ones as well, but hold on to these when you are testing them out. Sometimes they can make your unloaded ride kind of harsh. What are you typically towing?

That is the beauty of SumoSprings! Super easy to install and once they're on you can forget they're there! Are you planning on towing something with your Jeep that you want extra support for?
