An example of sag on a vehicle's rear axle under a heavy load

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.


Diagram of the Timbren spring installed

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.


Animation of a standard Timbren rubber spring

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.


Timbren suspension system works to prevent body roll

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.


An example of a trailers swaying

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.


An empty truck on a bumpy road without Timbren

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 Suspension Enhancement Compared to the Competition

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.

by:

I haven't installed these yet, but they were just what I was looking for to take the "squat" out of my truck while pulling my toy hauler.
These along with my WDH should level the truck just fine.



by:

The items get shipped really quickly, and their prices are excellent. Great customer service too!



by:

This worked as advertised, install was quick and easy!



by:

Was able to install easily with video.



by:

The supplied bolts are too short. Finding the right bolts added to time to do the install.

The jounce springs are 1/2 inch from axle. I'm sure the ride will be very harsh even when not loaded...



by:

Tried to order part first time, rotten customer service. Called back spoke to manager, much better service received part very quickly. Unfortunately part had bad bolts and or nuts, would not work together. Manager said if I had any problems I could call her number directly and she would take care of it. Have tried to reach her for three days no response. Called regular etrailer number and they want pictures sent to them and then it would have to be reviewed and I was informed I they were behind schedule, so only could guess how long it would take. Sending parts back and demanding refund. Have been doing business with etrailer for many years and this is the thanks I get for being a long time customer. Will not be shopping with etrailer ever again



by:

great and fast service needed the parts right away for a road trip and you got it done



by:

Gave 4 stars because when the truck is empty the ride is a little rough. But when I'm towing anything it's awesome



by:

They went right on and all the hardware came with them.



by:

Easy installation. The truck sits well and feels better on the road



by:

Have not installed product yet,Christmas present for a friend.Box came damaged from postal service,tore open,hopefully all parts are there.



by:

When I called they were very knowledgeable about the products and made sure I ordered what was going to work on my truck.



by:

Very satisfied! Easy to install and use on my Nissan Titan. I didn’t even need to remove the wheel to install it. Now my truck does not squat when pulling a trailer or carrying heavy load.



by:

Worked better than I excepted. I have a old pickup with really tired suspension and this product made it better than new.



by:

Carrieann was awesome in helping try to solve a very difficult problem. The product installed easily just as the direction stated and the video you put on the website was very useful. Thanks



by:

Some soapy water, a short 2x4 and bouncing up and down on the bumper a few times and these were installed. From removal of the old ones til the new ones were in took about 30 mins.



by:

Easy install - took less than 30 minutes. The truck now sits level with the bed loaded.



by:

My rep Jamie is awesome! She confirmed the part for my truck and got it shipped immediately. The product looks strong and was an easy install.



by:

These are the hardest ride you could possibly get loaded or unloaded I would not recomend timbrens to anyone. Had to eat the cost and replace them with air bags. (Aweful product)



by:

fit was good installed in under 1/2 hrs. So far the worked great



by:

Product looks good. Now if only they came with an installer.



by:

    Hey Jonathon! The # TDR2500CA is designed for 1500 and 2500 models. Since you have the 2007.5 Dodge Ram 3500 you need the Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System # TDR3500CA. If you need anything else don't hesitate to reach out in the comments below.

  • Can Weight Distribution System and Timbren Suspension Enhancement Work Together on 2012 Ram 2500
    The Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System # TDR2500CA that fits your 2012 Ram 2500 and a weight distribution system, the Fastway e2 Weight Distribution # FA92-00-1000, provide different benefits to your truck, and using both is a good idea based on how you described using your Ram. Since you use your truck to haul loads and not just tow, the Timbrens are going to offer your Ram's suspension the necessary support compared to hauling those loads without the Timbren's.

  • Comparing The Air Lift LoadLifter vs Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement Systems
    For your 2012 Ram 2500, you are correct that either suspension enhancement system will work. However there are major differences between them functionally. The Timbren system # TDR2500CA is a very solid jounce spring. It is a strong Aeon hollow rubber spring that is a very easy installation. It is not adjustable, and there is no maintenance. The only down side to these is that they can engage on large bumps when the truck is unloaded. This gives you a decent kick because the springs...

  • Recommended Rear Suspension Enhancement for my 2006 Dodge Ram Pickup
    Thanks for providing pictures! The part you referenced, # SSC-22, will fit your 2006 Dodge Ram Pickup 2500 or 3500 but not a 1500. These are heavy-duty coil springs and will replace your OEM coil springs for better suspension support. Since you will be pulling an RV camper, I would recommend the Timbren rear vehicle suspension # TDR2500CA. It will work with 2006 Dodge Ram 2500 2WD & 4WD. Because the Dodge Ram pickup handles better with the springs, less turbulence will be passed along...

    The bolts used to secure the Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement # TDR2500CA to your 2010 Dodge Ram 2500 are 3/8" UNC (Unified Course Pitch Threads) that are Grade 5. You will be able to find the shorter bolts from a local hardware store, just make sure you get either grade 5 or grade 8 bolts. I included a video of the # TDR2500CA for you to take a look at.

  • Which Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement for 2008 Dodge Ram 1500 Quad Cab 2WD
    Mega Cab is how Dodge/Ram refers to its largest 4 door cab. Because the bed is different, certain accessories won't work with the Mega Cab vehicles. All this can get pretty confusing. For a 1500 series Mega Cab 2 WD, you'd use part # TDR2500CA For a 1500 series Crew Cab or Quad Cab 2 WD, you'd use part # TDR1525H4 I've provided you with a photo showing the different cab sizes, hopefully that will make things a bit clearer for you. I'm sorry for the confusion.

This is the most cost effective priced option that also will easily get rid of the sag you are experiencing.

This kit is specified for Ram 2500s up through the 2013 model year. According to my contact at Timbren the correct kit for your 2500 Laramie is their new kit # TDR2500D.

  • Recommended Suspension Enhancement Product for 2006 Ram 2500 Carrying Small Slide In Camper
    For a Timbren suspension solution for your 2006 Dodge Ram 2500 4x4, I'd recommend going with the lower-rated # TDR2500CA which will provide the proper support for up to 6000 lbs. The heavier-duty # T94VR is more intended for use on severe service vehicles such as tow trucks and ambulances. I'm certain that you wouldn't be pleased with the rough ride you would experience with the higher-rated Timbren product. As an alternative, I believe you'd be happier using the # SSR-302-54 which provides...

    Installing a Timbren Suspension Enhancement System is a great way to stabilize and level your 2004 Dodge Ram Pickup 1500 and also provide a more comfortable ride when carrying heavier loads. For the rear axle, I recommend the Timbren # TDR2500CA. This system has a 6,000 pound capacity and is confirmed to fit your Ram Pickup.

These springs have a 6,000 lb weight capacity and can be installed on trucks with or without overload springs and you do not need to install spacers. The weight capacity of these springs is more than enough to support your veterinary box in your bed. These springs work well with consistent loads.

    You would benefit from some suspension enhancement on your 2004 Dodge Ram and in-bed camper. However, you would not need 2 separate systems. One would be sufficient. Since a camper is pretty much a static load (does not vary greatly in size or shape) going with rubber springs or leaf springs would be the way to go. My top choice is a Timbren system, # TDR2500CA. These springs are going to help stabilize and level the truck, reduce road shock and side to side roll. They have a high 6,000...

    In order to determine if the Timbren Vehicle Suspension, # TDR2500CA, and the B and W gooseneck hitch you have installed will interfere with each other, you will need to take a look at the installation details, linked below, and the video showing installation on a similar truck to see if any of the same attachment points are used.

    For the rear of your 2008 Dodge Ram 1500 two wheel drive quad cab, the Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System part # TDR1525H4 would be correct for you. However, if you have the mega cab model then you would want part # TDR2500CA.

    I really like the Timbrens and they have a better warranty than the SumoSprings so for your 2005 Dodge Ram 2500 the part # TDR2500CA would be a great option. If the leveling kit you have was a body lift you would be fine with just the Timbren. If instead it is a suspension lift you would want the # A25723-90AH00 for inch of a lift that you have. So you would need a total of 4 of these.
