Features to know about

Stay Level and Confident Under Load: 2,800-lb Rear Suspension Support

Heavy trailers or bed loads can push your rear suspension past its comfort zone, making steering and braking feel off. These SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs add up to 2,800 lbs of rear axle support at 50-percent compression to keep your ride level and stable when towing or hauling. They cushion bumps, minimize sway, and help your factory suspension carry the extra weight so you feel in control even with a full load.

Side-by-side comparison showing SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs installed on a vehicle rear axle, with one spring uncompressed and the other compressed under load to demonstrate suspension performance.

Smooth Ride on Any Trip: Progressive Load Control

Whether you’re carrying a light load or a heavy haul, the springs automatically adjust to match. They compress easily for lighter loads to keep the ride soft and smooth, then firm up as weight increases for added stability. That progressive action means less bounce and better control no matter how much gear you’ve got in back.

Tough Enough for Weather and Work: Microcellular Urethane Build

The closed-cell microcellular urethane springs handle temperature swings from -25 F to 200 F and resist oils, road salts, and UV rays that wear out ordinary rubber parts. They compress vertically with minimal side expansion, so they won’t get damaged by nearby components even in tight spaces. It’s durable support that holds up through seasons of towing and hauling.

Set It and Forget It: Maintenance-Free, No-Drill Design

Installation is simple with no drilling required—just bolt them in place where your factory bump stops sit. Once installed, there’s nothing to maintain—no air lines, no pressure checks. The one-piece design rebounds fully after heavy compression, working quietly in the background every time you load up or hit a rough stretch of road.

Stay Balanced Through Every Turn: Independent Spring Action

Each spring works on its own to handle side-to-side weight differences. That helps reduce body roll on curves and keeps you steady over uneven terrain or when loading off-center cargo. The result is a more planted feel through corners and better control when your suspension is working hard.

Video Transcript for An In-Depth Look at the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs-SS48DR

Hello everybody, this is Jeff at etrailer.com. Today we're gonna take a look at the SumoSprings solo custom helper springs for your rear axle. Now, this is a custom fit part. These are designed to fit the 2014, and newer, Nissan Frontier vehicles. And on a custom fit part like this I always like to recommend for you to go to our website, use the fit guide, put in your year and model vehicle and it'll show if this'll work for your application. Now, these are helper springs which will upgrade your vehicle's rear suspension for improved driver control and comfort, helps keep your vehicle level when you're towing or hauling a heavy load, helps to absorb any bumps and shocks and it'll even help minimize sway.

Now, it does offer progressive load control which means these springs will compress according to the weight of your cargo. So, if you have a lighter load on em the springs will compress easily, at first, for a nice soft engagement and a less bumpy ride and, then, if you have a heavier load the springs will compress by as much as 80% for support. They do work independently from each other to compensate for any off-center loads, reduce body roll during sharp turns, and they are made of a durable microcellular urethane. They're designed to work in temperatures from a negative 25 degrees Fahrenheit to 200 degrees Fahrenheit, and the material will resist damage that can be caused by oils, road salts and UV rays. Does offer minimal lateral expansion.

Basically, these springs will compress vertically instead of to the sides, so they aren't easily damaged when operating in tight spaces. And what's nice about em is they're maintenance free, there's no tubing to run or air pressure to monitor like with air springs. These are very simple, no-drill installation. Does include the two jounce springs with the mounting brackets and the hardware, nice tube of threadlocker to put on the threads when you install it and a nice set of instructions that'll describe how it installs. These parts are made in the USA.

Specs on this, again, the weight capacity at 50% compression is 2,800 pounds. Now, you do need to remember that the SumoSprings will not increase your vehicle's weight carrying capacity. But that should do it for the review on the SumoSprings solo custom helper springs for your rear axle..

The product was quick and easy to install (less then 10 minutes). I did a test load and hooked up my 29 foot travel trailer and immediately noticed the difference in appearance and performance.

I put these on a 2013 Jeep JK (not lifted) that tows a 3000 lb trailer in rough terrain; Total game changer.

These replaced the anemic factory stops (which had completely disintegrated) and make it impossible to 'bottom out' on the dips and holes that use to beat up the suspension. I got nearly all of my vertical travel back and the vehicle now sits almost level under high tongue load.

They go on pretty easy. I suggest sliding in one side, and then using a wooden dowel and hammer to pop the other side in the stock receiver cup.

Highly recommended. These are a MUST if you are towing a trailer (with a medium sized SUV) of any significant weight or if you just want to be able to bounce hard without bottoming out your suspension. I am likely going to get the front suspension version now as well.
Wish I knew these existed sooner.

2025 Promaster 2500 159” wheelbase. Backed the van on couple 2” X 6 “ easier sliding under. Sprayed PB Blaster on top of bumper spring, using a 16” Channel Lock, easy off with the old. At that time I jacked the rear end to allow clearance. One side at a time. Took longer for set up then the job. I used the long bolt with two spacers. Have not drove yet, though looking for great results.

Glad to hear the install wasn't too bad, Michael! Definitely let us know how the ride is once you take it out for a drive! What are you using your Van for? The tires look pretty beefy.

This only pertains to the order, shipping speed, and install as I have not put a heavy load on these sumo Springs yet but I feel like that's a foregone conclusion based off the reviews already. The ordering process, the shipping, and the installation was unbelievably easy. I kept rereading the instructions thinking this can't be right because it was so simple. I looked at the YouTube video and realized it is that simple! So happy with the ordering process, the quality of the initial product I opened, and how simple it was to put on the jeep.

@ClaireH yes Ms Claire. I plan to put a truck camper on the Jeep (that weighs in the 500-1000 lbs range). My payload is 1700 lbs so I know a camper of the weight will be significant my truck. Already ordered a stiffer rear anti-sway bar as well.

@Justin That sounds like a good plan! These SumoSprings plus the sway bar should be more than enough to handle the weight of your truck bed camper.

It arrived pretty promptly about 30 minutes later I had him installed. It took me longer to find the proper Tools. Never had to remove the tires or wheels the only time I had to jack it up was to put the helper springs and screw them down very easily install
by:

Great product! Bought these for my 2000 7.3 f250. Didn't want something that is constantly active like ras or hellwig since my leaf springs are new and rated for 4k pounds. Installed these in 1 hr super simple only hard part was the factory bump stop on driver side was a pain. Didn't install the puck they give due to height of truck and I knew more or less at what point I wanted them engaging. I haul cattle to shows/ auctions or between pastures with my 24ft big bend and these things actually provided a smoother ride in my truck loaded then unloaded.they do a great job with the added support and are better than an overload spring with handling sway and providing a smooth ride loaded. Just wish I could use the 3k pound rated ones on this truck and my dually but doesn't fit if you have a gooseneck sadly so will probably have to go with timbs on the drw. Over all great product can't speak to longevity but solid for the time being. And customer service with this company is excellent if you have a question or problem they're on top of it...hope they pay them as well as the reputation they're building for them.

I put a set of 47s on my Silverado 1500 and towed my dump trailer that weighed 6000 pounds the way I had it loaded for 50 miles on all kinds of roads and it worked well. I didn’t use the spacers and the truck still rides like it did before the install.

Glad the Sumos are helping make your loads easier to tow!

by:
Jeep Gladiator Mojave - swapped out the rear stock bump stops with these. High quality parts. Just jack up the truck enough to give you room to work with and put in your jack stands, no need to remove the wheels. I look forward to seeing how they do with towing! Hopefully I can update my review here afterwards. Check out the gap difference in the pictures. Should touch sooner during normal drive conditions and hopefully help reduce some trailer squat and help towing to be smoother.
by:
Opted for the Blue 1000lb Sumo's w/spacer over the 1500lb Black ones. 1500 Silverado Max Tow & reduces squatting by 2" on a 1000lb+ tongue weight. Ride is still good, but you can feel the Sumo's engage over large dips or bumps which is not an issue for me.

I got the springs installed last week and wanted to have a drive time before I wrote the review.

The height of the springs are perfect for my 2016 Tacoma, They keep the truck stable and nearly eliminate the body roll I had before installing them. I am heading to the mountains in a couple weeks, so I will update the review when I get back. That way I will know for sure the body roll is gone and the truck is stable on the winding mountain roads.

The springs installed in no time at all and since I had the rear end apart, I decided to add the leveling blocks at the same time, to keep the truck from squatting with the gear I haul around with me.

The guys at etrailer are great. And while I did not call them to discuss this item, they have been very helpful in the past with all my questions.

Below are pictures of before, a couple comparisons and after. Sorry if they come out sideways.

These Sumo Springs were a great addition to my Tacoma and well worth the money, IMHO.

The springs are working exactly as expect. I have need up to the mountains numerous times and to Monerary to the Sea Otter bike fest. They have reduced the body roll and helped keep the truck stable on the mountain roads or when loaded down for camping. Im very pleased I added these Sumo Springs to my Tacoma.

by:

Have Nissan NV 1500 (transit van).Loads and trailers were the problem-along with the constant "slouch" look-with no really heavy load on it. Hated that!
These used with "add-on leaf springs" made a world of difference.
Bumps being felt, are there, but nothing like before. These two things along with new shocks (all for back),has helped out so much!
So, the bumps have almost faded to "nothingness". Now granted, I have not hit a massive pothole, yet. I try to dodge those anyhow!
Components work great together!
by:
Got them installed no issues the reason for 4 stars is one side touches top of axle the other side does not no one could tell me if this was right or wrong also haven't pulled 5th wheel yet to feel the ride or handling so we will see thanks
by:

Definitely helps with squat on '24 F250 from boat trailer tongue weight. These do come with a plate to avoid uneven contact or wear.
I mounted using all spacers , stock is same unless speed bumps or large dips, u feel the stiffness/contact of sumo as expected. May take one spacer out .
Super easy to install , better than leaking bags.
Time will tell how they last

Glad to hear they are helping, Cory! If you are feeling them going over speed bumps, I think taking one of the spacers out is a good idea. Especially if that is happening when you are unloaded. Speaking of which, what are you towing?

I had installed this model SumoSpring on my 2019 4Runner and had great results when towing the camper I had at the time. They greatly reduce the bounce when going over dips in the road at highway speeds. Now I have a 2021 Titan and a bigger heavier camper. I expect the same great results on the Titan. Installation was pretty straight forward and took about a half hour. The size difference between the OEM bump stops and the SumoSprings alone should give a better ride when towing my camper.

I bought a 2027 RAM 1500 to tow my 20' 5000lb Forest River. Easy to install. I did it in my driveway in 1.5hrs. Some of the bolts were dificult to access due to mufflers etc but a short wrench worked well. When I first hooked up my trailer I had 4" of rear bed setelment. With springs installed I had less than 2". Front lift is about 1/2". Did not compromise driving comfort and appeared to dampen trailer "flex" on RxR tracks etc. My right handled very well on a trip from S Florida to N Georgia on Interstates and secondary roads.

Had them installed and hooked up the trailer. Much improved support from sag due to tongue weight. Kept the vehicle very level to within 3/4" higher than front. Perfect rake and comfortable during unloaded or loaded driving. OEM bump stops really didn't do anything in comparison. Shop had to work a bit harder to get OEM stops off but install of these SomoSprinhs was simple. Glad I went this route.

I had the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs installed on my 2020 Nissan NV2500 camper van (rear axil) about 4 months ago and have been very happy with how they have performed.
by:
Installed these right before a long road trip, and were impressed with how much the ride improved. Opted not to include the spacers, which has worked out fine. While not towing have not noticed any change to the ride, which is good. When towing the steering has a solid grip on the road now (sometimes felt a little loose before installing these) and no more issues with 'porpoising'. We drove across a several mile long bridge in the Bay Area that likely would have been a roller coaster ride previously, and had no issues. Quick and easy to install.

One of my favorite things to recommend Kevin, the feedback is always so great on what a difference they make! What are you mainly towing that needed the extra support?

by:
I bought and installed the 1000lb Sumo Solo springs to help alleviate rear end squat on my 2024 GMC Canyon Denali when pulling my boat. My boat trailer has a long mono tongue with no weight distribution installed. The boat weighs in at about 5500lbs, the truck fender lip measures 38” high unloaded, once I dropped the hitch down on the ball and the Sumos picked up the load, the fenders measured 36.25” equating to an inch and 3/4 squat. Empty the Sumos have an apx gap of 7/8” above the frame rails. The Sumos were recommended over the Timbrens for my situation of infrequent towing with this truck and to maintain the best ride possible when not towing. So far my ride is virtually unchanged when empty and feels controlled when towing. Installation is straight forward but the instructions could be a little clearer with a diagram showing the intended location of the springs. Luckily an etrailer customer had already done the install and provided some pics so there was no question. I chose to remove the tires to have good access and I’d do it again this way. I supported the truck with a jack stand under the receiver. IMHO the proper method to locate the over frame upper clamp brackets is to push the forward clamp as far forward until it contacts the bed stiffener and you’ll be in the correct location then let all the hardware hang to position itself, tighten as required and enjoy.

Excellent, I also tow a 6x12 cargo trailer which the Sumos do a great job of maintaining a level ride. I also installed Sumos front and rear on my 32 Tiffin motorhome. It utilizes the Ford F53 chassis and I believe they compliment that chassis well. Im definitely a big Sumo fan.

  • What SumoSprings Are Recommended For A 2013 Toyota Tacoma With 2" Lift?
    Thanks for reaching out, Tim. The # SS48DR SumoSprings for the 2013 Tacoma with the 2" lift will indeed be a no drill install. SumoSprings have what is called a progressive spring rate. Meaning the spring compresses quite easily at first, then becomes firmer as the load gets heavier. So, you get great load support without making the ride too rough. Also the ride will not be too rough when you are done towing your boat. The progressive spring rate means the springs will be much softer...

  • Recommended SumoSprings for a 2011 Toyota Tundra SR5
    So long as the suspension in the rear of your Tundra has not be modified, I recommend the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs item # SSR-610-54. These have a 2,800 lbs capacity that will keep the rear end level when you have your truck weighted down. This system replaces your factory bump stops. If the back of your trucks suspension has been modified you'll want to use the SumoSprings item # SS48DR instead.

  • Will SumoSprings Increase Ride Height When Unloaded
    Hi Adam, SumoSprings will not affect your unloaded ride height, but are designed to help support your suspension when loaded so that you maintain your factory unloaded ride height. The colors dictate the weight capacity of the spring so black ones # SSR-610-47 would have a 1,500lb capacity which is around the max payload of a 2020 Tundra. These are made for a stock suspension, if you have a suspension lift then let me know and I can help find the correct spacer kit to make it fit.

  • What Rear Suspension Enhancement Fits A 2019 Nissan Frontier 4WD With 2 Lift and Leaf Springs?
    I have a different option, but the SumoSprings # SS48DR you were looking at are designed for models of the 2019 Nissan Frontier that have coil springs. Since your truck has leaf springs you will need to go with a different option. Due to the 2" add a leaf the only option for additional support is going to be the Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System # TTORTUN4L with two 1" spacers # A25723-90AH00. You will just need to pick up some 3/8" x 3-1/2" grade 8 bolts from your local hardware...
