Rear Suspension Support

Towing or hauling a heavy load can cause rear sag as your factory suspension compresses under the weight of the load. This means that the rear axle is trying to support not only the extra load but also the weight of your vehicle. And because there is less weight on your front axle, your front tires make less contact with the road, which causes problems with traction, steering, and braking. SumoSprings upgrade your vehicle's factory suspension to level your vehicle, improve driving performance, and keep your ride comfortable.


Installed spring when it is not compressed

SumoSprings provide progressive load control - the more you load them, the stiffer they become. With a lighter load, the springs will compress easily for soft engagement and a less bumpy ride. The closed-cell urethane material allows for smooth contact between the springs and your vehicle. And the springs act like a shock absorber to dampen road vibration.


Installed spring when it is compressed

The springs can also compress by as much as 80 percent to support a heavy rear load and to help your factory suspension bear up under the load. This evens out the weight, which levels your vehicle and ensures that your front tires are making better contact with the road. A level ride means that you have improved driving control, ensures safe headlight aim, and helps to minimize sway. The springs also support your factory suspension, which helps prevent sagging and reduces bottoming out.


The springs work independently from one another to support each side of your vehicle. This action helps to reduce body roll when you make a sharp turn. This also helps compensate for an off-center load.


Durable, Custom-Fit Springs

These microcellular urethane springs are tough. They resist abrasion, oil, salt, and UV rays that can more quickly wear out other springs, and they perform well in temperatures ranging from -25 F to 200 F (-33 C to 93 C).


SumoSprings compress vertically with minimum expansion to the sides, so they won't be damaged by nearby mechanical parts and they fit safely into tighter spots. And unlike air springs, SumoSprings require no maintenance or adjustment.


The helper springs are custom designed to fit your vehicle, and they install easily - no drilling required.

  • Will SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs Fit 2000 Ford F-250 4WD With B8W Turnoverball
    Hey Paul, welcome back! Yes, the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs # SS84VR will fit with your B&W Turnoverball installed. They're in roughly the same location but this replaces the factory bump stop and won't interfere with the gooseneck brackets. How did the SumoSprings work out on your F-350?

  • Recommended Rear Suspension Enhancement For Preventing Sway In 2016 Ford F-150 W/ Truck Bed Camper
    For your 2016 Ford F-350 Diesel carrying a 1800lb truck bed camper and towing a 20' boat the correct SumoSprings would be the # SS84VR if your truck is 4WD or the # SSR-114-54 if your truck is 2WD. You will not need to add the springs to the front axle, just the rear. Now since your primary concern is sway I recommend going with a different option, the SuperSprings Custom Suspension Stabilizer and Sway Control Kit # SSA22. This kit will give you 2500lbs of load leveling support which...

  • Recommended Suspension Enhancement for 2015 Ford F-250 to Reduce Squat
    In order to reduce the squat from your 5th wheel and transfer tank I recommend adding the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs - Rear Axle # SS84VR. These will fit a 2014 Ford F-250 4WD. If you have 2WD you would need the # SSR-114-54 instead. The SumoSprings will help keep you level while also reducing sway and improving the overall ride. They have progressive load control which means they compress according to the weight of your cargo. They are made of a high-density microcellular...

  • SumoSprings Compatible With Gooseneck Hitch on 2004 Ford F-250 4WD
    We do have SumoSprings that fit your 2004 Ford F-250 4WD and are compatible with a gooseneck hitch, though the part number you mentioned is actually only a fit for 2-wheel drive trucks. So instead, what you will want are the following springs: - SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs # SS84VR I verified with the manufacturer for you that these are a fit for your truck, and will work with a gooseneck hitch installed. These are going to do a superb job of giving your F-250 the added support...

  • Recommended Helper Spring Option for 2002 Ford F250 Diesel
    The Timbren # TTORTUN4 are a fit for the Toyota Tacoma/Tundra or Nissan Titan, and wouldn't work for your truck, although Timbren does offer fits as long as your truck isn't lifted. The Timbren # TFR350SDE offers up to 8600 lbs of support, is a no drill application, is compatible with fifth wheel or gooseneck hitches and is compatible with vehicles with or without top overload springs. My one knock on the Timbren product is that they can provide a pretty rough ride once weight from cargo...

  • How Much Does the TorkLift SuperHitch Magnum Weigh
    The Torklift SuperHitch Magnum # TLF1002-30 weighs 140-lbs; I'm not sure how much the factory hitch weighs, but I'm guessing that it's likely around 40-50lbs. If you're having issues with sag on your 2000 Ford F-250 then you might want to consider adding a suspension enhancement like the Sumo Springs Solo Custom Helper Springs # SS84VR, which will help reduce sag, fight sway and keep your truck leveled. These offer a no-drill installation and simply bolt on to replace your factory bump...

  • Suspension Enhancement for 2015 Ford F-350 with In-Bed Camper
    For additional suspension support for your 2015 Ford F-350 with an in-bed camper the RoadActive Suspension kit part # RAS3611-SHD which provides adjustable support that will give you the sag reduction you are wanting but unlike other options increases stability and handling as well as improves ride quality. The other options will give you support but they are known to make the ride quality harsher. If you had a dually truck you'd need the part # RAS3611-SLHD. Front suspension enhancement...
