6,000-lb Capacity. These hollow rubber springs sit above the rear axle to help stabilize and level your Toyota Tacoma. They also provide a more comfortable ride by absorbing road shock and improving roll stability. Easy to install and use.

Specs:
Whether you're hauling heavy loads in your bed or cargo area or you're towing a trailer, you will often see the rear of your vehicle sag while the front end rises. In these cases, the rear axle is handling not only the weight of the cargo, but also more of the vehicle's weight. Because less weight is on the front axle, the front tires are making less contact with the road. Overall handling - traction, steering, and braking - is negatively affected. But the resistance from Timbren's Suspension Enhancement System works with your factory suspension to keep your vehicle level and improve your driving experience.
The Timbren system comes with custom-fit brackets that are bolted onto each frame rail above the rear axle. Hollow rubber springs are bolted to the bottom of the bracket and hang down to where the bottom of the spring sits, 1" above the axle. The inch of clearance allows the existing factory suspension to operate normally under light loads and standard terrain, ensuring the smooth, comfortable ride that you are used to.
Timbren Suspension Enhancement Systems are designed to work progressively. When the hollow rubber springs are compressed, the convoluted design causes them to quickly collapse along the folds. Once the folds are compacted, the stacked barrel shape increases resistance, stiffening the suspension and keeping your vehicle level.
Each hollow rubber spring works independently to support the driver's side or passenger's side of your vehicle. This is helpful when you swerve or make sharp turns. Each spring is activated when it is needed, so body roll is greatly reduced. The independent action also works well when you are hauling off-center loads.
Because the vehicle handles better with the springs, less turbulence will be passed along to the trailer, and this helps to keep the trailer in line. Your driving comfort is further enhanced if the trailer does begin to sway (from a gust of wind or a passing semi), because the movement from the trailer is not transferred to your vehicle. This also works to make the sway subside more quickly.
Another great feature of the rubber construction is that the springs absorb most of the road shock, creating a smoother, more stable ride overall when loaded. Wear and tear on the factory suspension is also lessened because the rubber springs work to prevent bottoming out on rough roads.
Timbren's Suspension Enhancement Systems are much easier to install than air springs - there are no air hoses to run, no compressors or gauges to hook up, and no manual adjustments to make. The rubber construction makes Timbren's springs more elastic than similar products constructed of microcellular urethane. And more elasticity allows for a more comfortable ride when loaded or towing because the rubber has more travel.

Hello neighbors, welcome back. I'm Steven here at etrailer.com. Today, you're joining me where we look at these Timbren Suspension Enhancement System for the rear axle. Now folks, this is a custom fit. It's gonna fit a 2023 through the current year Toyota Sequoias. Make sure you're using our fit guide at etrailer.com, top center of our page.
Enter the year, make, and model, and we'll get you the right parts the first time. And what these do, folks, if you're not familiar with them, they basically improve suspension and handling and overall safety by providing additional support when you need it the most to have the most comfortable smooth ride possible. And what they do is they allow your leaf spring ample movement while cushioning light loads, and they actually become more rigid or more stiff when they're compressed and you have more weight, which is gonna give you greater performance when you have those higher, heavier loads. It can help reduce sag, increased stability, they work independently side to side, and they also help compensate for off-center loads. They're gonna help you reduce body roll, like if you have to swerve or you turn a corner too tight.
And they also act as a basic shock absorber. They'll take a lot of the bumps, the rough road out of your ride, that kind of stuff. They will technically extend the life of your vehicle suspension because this will take most of that brunt of those constant bumps and that kind of stuff. Now what these are is they are two Aeon hollow rubber springs with custom brackets and spacers. I've got 'em just loosely put together here, but real simply, it's got a spacer block here.
You got the hollow rubber Aeon spring. There's a big washer in there that you saw, the nut goes underneath there. This gets bolted down into place. And then you use the existing hardware off of your factory bump stop that you removed, and this goes right back in place where that factory one came off of using the same hardware. So, pretty quick, easy install, no drilling whatsoever required.
It installs directly into your frame. You've already got pre-threaded holes there. This just simply replaces that. You put it right back in place where the old one was. Now this will give you a load level capacity of 6,000 pounds. Keep in mind, this is, again, just an enhancement. You're not adding any extra capacity to your vehicle. I think a lot of people get these kind of things and they think, "Oh, now I can haul 6,000 more pounds." That's not the case. Again, this is just a load leveling capacity. So it's helping your current factory suspension by giving it a little boost that it needs to keep everything level and that kind of thing. Well folks, that's gonna do it for our look today at this Timbren Suspension Enhancement System for your rear axle. I'm Steve here at etrailer.com. Thank you so much for your time. Thanks for watching. Have fun installing these.
Great product, easy to put on. It took less than 45 minutes to put the new Timber butt stops on. Only thing I would request is to tape up the box they cam in, because by the time it travels to your location it’s beat to hell and back. Like the last time I ordered the ones for the front, all the parts were missing. Luckily this time all items were still in the box.
Timely shipping! Project is completed, Thanks.
Great product! Fast shipping and bolted right on!
Fast delivery!!!
The front and rear kits came yesterday and I installed them today in my pole barn while the winter weather blew out side. Will try them next month!
I am 75 years old and did the install myself , the rear took the longest as it is a tight area. My unit is a 2017 Georgetown XL Thanks for the videos and info online.
Product arrived on time and the instructions online were excellent. Installed both sides in 2 hours. Product didn't make a huge immediate difference but did stiffen heavy loading up. Coupled with new shocks - great product.
Amazing solution that leveled out my truck when towing my tailor. Super easy to install and nothing to adjust.
Easy to install. Took 20 minutes. Quality is great. We'll see how they hold up with the trailer hooked up.
Helps a lot with trailer loads. Would buy again.
Haven't tried them out yet with the trailer, but install was fast and simple. Looks great and has not changed the ride unloaded, as some reviews had suggested. Will know more after hauling horse.
With an impact gun, was easy to install replacing the stock bumpers. Worked great with an 18' trailer and tractor on my truck. Much less sag and stiffer ride.
Really helped with the support of my trailer.. excellent product
Very fast shipping! Great product! Thank you much!!
Great product and great customer service
Received the product promptly. Exactly what I needed .... decided on this instead of air bags since I only tow a boat.
Made a big difference in how the vehicle tows when we have the camper hooked.
AS advertised, used a wooden block and the vehicles weight to press in. A small amount of liquid dish soap also helps . Much stiffer than the original, will find out in two weeks when traveling west with the trailer attached. A+ so far.
Still holding up great after a years worth of use.
My second set due to buying a new truck. I consider these vital when towing a TT with my F150. They maintain a correct ride height and reduce sway dramatically. At the same time, they do not affect unloaded ride quality...easy to install too!
Works great. Truck rides as normal without load. Load it up and they engage and the truck rides level.
Got here quick and complete. Used the spacers for my preferred gap and installation was a snap.
Easy installation. However, product has not been tested in a manner appropriate to provide rating.
I bought these for a 2020 Ram 2500 because they had great reviews here and at a lot of other places around the internet. They do not fit correctly. On the passenger side, they are almost touching the frame with no load in the bed or on the hitch. The ride is absolutely terrible, very rough and painful. The ONLY time it's tolerable is with my 3000 pound camper in the bed of the truck. I would have returned these, but I waited a few months to install them, so it was too late by the time I realized how bad they were for my application. If you have a truck that is always loaded with a lot of weight, this would be awesome. Otherwise, spend the extra money and get air bags. I will be installing air bags and throwing these in the trash.
Great communication and great delivery time. Just finished placing them on my truck. Easy 45min work. Thanks etrailer.
The install was very straight forward and if one can turn a wrench or follow instructions no problem, Haven't carried a load or towed yet but normal service is as normal.
