6,000-lb Capacity. These hollow rubber springs sit above the rear axle to help stabilize and level your vehicle. 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.

Today we're going to take a look at the Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System. Now this is a custom fit part. It is designed to fit the 1995 to 2011 Fiat Ducato and a 2014 and newer Dodge ProMaster 2500 and RAM ProMaster 2500 vehicles. Now on a custom fit part I always like to recommend for you to to go our website, use our fit guide, put in your year and model vehicle and it'll show you if this part will work for your application. Now this kit will improve the suspension, the handling and safety on your vehicle. Provides additional support as needed, so you always get a nice, smooth, comfortable ride, and it does allow the leaf spring ample movement, cushions any light loads, so it'll ride just as smoothly when you're not hauling a load. Now these do become more rigid as more weight is added so that'll increase stability, gives you great performance when you're hauling heavy loads, and it'll help reduce rear sag. Now these do work independently, side to side so they help compensate for any off-center loads, helps reduce body roll when you have swerve or execute a sharp turn.
They will also act as a shock absorber, taking the brunt of any bumps and rough roads, so it helps extend the life of your suspension. This part will include everything shown here on the table. Two aeon hollow rubber springs, the mounting brackets, and the mounting hardware for a nice, simple installation, and a nice set of detailed instructions that'll describe how to install everything. Now these are designed to replace your axle bump stops on your frame. There's no drilling required. Specs on this is 8,600 pounds, but you do want to make sure not to exceed your vehicle's weight carrying capacity.
These are designed to work with a suspension system that is in good working order. That should do it for the review on the Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System.
It performed as expected with greater loads but the vehicle ride is rougher with larger bumps without a load on the truck.
Will put them in every vehicle I get. Huge difference in stability when towing. Very little ride change when empty.

Fits and works well. Happy with our choice to use these on are truck. No more squatting when towing. Don’t even know they are there.
fast delivery easy to install and serves the purpose for which was intended with out question quality 5 stars
Shipping was so efficient arrived days before estimated. Order was placed and within an hour was shipped!!!
Superb. Exactly what was needed.
I really needed an economical solution to my z71 squatting down too much in the rear and this is exactly what I needed. Super easy to install. Very happy with my purchase. I’ll get another pair when I trade trucks and I’d recommend them to anyone.
These were fairly easy to install and have made a huge difference with the sag I was experiencing while towing my camper.
Put this on my 2017 F250, in the rear, to help with a 2 ton load of gravel. Worked great recommended to a friend he bought them for his F250 as well. Love these
Bought these to help with body sway while pulling a 22 ft camper. They really helped and were easy to install.
I put them on a 2005 Nissan Titan. We up graded tires to LTs and dropped 25 hundred pounds of salt and the truck sat level. Very pleased with them
good product fair price and most cost effective way to add stability to your truck; third set I have owened and installed.
Even though I know or understand what happened to the first shipment. The second shipment made it to my hand directly from UPS carrier. Job well done. Mr. Paul B. and everyone in between that helped. Thank you.
Perfect fit, easy to install, and they work as advertised. These are a nice improvement over the stock parts.
Timbres is a Great product. Have used them in the past. Only complaint was delivery. With no fault of the company. The USPS due to the Covid was slow on delivery (3weeks). Be patient it will arrive. I think the company was aware and could have given a heads up.
These were a reasonably priced option for helping to control the body roll
I placed these at all 4 corners of the RV
Install was not bad, it took me about 1.5 hours to get them on just because I was trying to get the bolt to stay on my socket. I placed a nut inside the socket so it would reach the threads, after that it was easy. First drive felt solid definitely excited to see how they do loaded or towing. will check back when I do.
Excellent delivery time. These were advertised as easy to install and they were. These days I'm physically challenged but had these installed by myself in about half hour. Haven't driven with them installed yet.
Works as advertised. Really helps my Lexus GX when towing 6500lbs camper. Especially when going over bumps. Does not effect ride when not towing.
Easy to install. Doesn't change anything until you are loaded, then the springs engage to keep you level. Inexpensive with zero maintenance compared to other solutions.
These were very easy to install and adds a LOT of rear end support. It's a little stiff for normal driving but you get used to it.
The product works as described but when I'm driving empty on any road that may be rough my truck tends to bottom out on the jounces causing a rough ride
This system is simple to install, and it dramatically helps the load handling capability without changing the ride of an empty truck.
