Features to know about

Stay Level and Confident Under Heavy Loads: 6,000-lb Rear Suspension Support

When hauling a heavy load or towing a trailer, the rear end can sag and throw off your handling. The Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System adds up to 6,000 lbs of extra support on the rear axle to keep your truck level and steady. The hollow rubber springs mount above the axle and stiffen progressively as more weight is added, helping to eliminate squat and keep braking, traction, and steering under control.

Smooth Out Rough Roads: Hollow Rubber Springs That Absorb Shock

Rough pavement and bumps can beat up your factory suspension. These Aeon hollow rubber springs work like heavy-duty shock absorbers, taking the brunt of every bump to smooth out the ride. The rubber design soaks up road shock and vibration, keeping the truck comfortable when loaded and cutting down on wear to the stock suspension by preventing bottoming out on rough terrain.

Stay Steady in Crosswinds and Turns: Independent Spring Action

When you swerve or hit uneven terrain, each Timbren spring works independently to support its side of the vehicle. This helps control body roll and keeps the truck stable through corners, wind gusts, or when carrying off-center loads. The result is a planted feel on the highway and less sway transferred to a trailer behind you.

Get It Done Without Complications: Bolt-On Design, No Air Lines or Drilling

Adding rear support doesn’t have to be complicated. The Timbren system includes custom brackets, hardware, and two Aeon rubber springs that bolt directly in place of the factory bump stops with no drilling required. There are no airlines, compressors, or manual adjustments to deal with—just a simple bolt-on setup that’s ready for real work once installed.

They work great. Just what I wanted.

Works great. Truck rides as normal without load. Load it up and they engage and the truck rides level.

Parts came in sooner than I thought. Instructions were very good and easy to install. Took 15 to 20 to install GREAT PRODUCT.



by:

Rose listened to my story and helped me choose the correct product. She was wonderful to work with . She had good knowledge of the products.

I will work with etrailer and Rose again in the future.



by:

These stop the sag/bounce back significantly. You can definitely feel that these are working when you hit a bump in the road. Helps stop the "floating" feeling



by:

I purchased these to help with the squat on my F-150 when towing my 32--foot travel trailer. I need to tweak the setup on my WDH, but otherwise am very pleased. Without the trailer, you don't even know they're there.



by:

Install on a 2008 Ford F150 was very easy. I removed the old bump stops and installed these right into the existing hole. Perfect fit. Heavy duty. Worth the money.



by:

I purchased the Timbren rear kit for my 2010 F150. I occasionally haul two motorcycles and wanted to get rid of the sag. The install could not be any easier. My truck required the extra bushings that are included, this gave me the recommended space between the axle and the bushing. Perfect fit, no issues. Great service from etrailer, ordered on sunday and package arrived Wednesday using the free shipping option.



by:

Ordered Sunday, received Friday. Love the service of etrailer and will continue to use them. Put the timbrens on my heavy 1/2T F150 and they went on like a charm. Used the spacer and got 1" of clearance, well within the requirements. This should take the sag out of towing my fifth wheel trailer.



by:

Got in the mail next day offer ordering. Put on the truck, in about 20 minutes. Took truck for a drive and Just what I was expecting. Can't wait to pull the travel trailer next and see how that goes.

Helped out on load a great deal! Under a load the truck is much more solid ride.



by:

I installed these on a 2014 F150 to cure the sag when attaching my 14' cargo trailer. They installed easily and after using them for a year I can say they've leveled things right out. I also can't detect any noticeable degrading of the ride when not towing. I'm very pleased.



by:

I have been very satisfied that I choose this over air bags. With the max load tounge weight from a fifth wheel rv in the bed, the truck and rv are perfectly level. Happy camper!



by:

As always, shipment was super-fast! Product installed easily and works as expected. I pull a 5th wheel with my F-150 w/ the " ECO-BOOST " engine. Made a huge difference in handling.

A year and 10,000 miles later, still going strong!



by:

This system worked out really well on my 2013 F150 XLT Crew Cab v8. I needed to remove the top rubber spacer, but afterwards, I have plenty of suspension travel for normal driving and good suspension control when towing. This reduced the "dolphining" I experienced while towing. Highly recommend this system for towing heavy loads. Also, recommend the Superchips programmer (towing tune) to round out your towing package.



by:

After reading all the great reviews about how great this company is and how this product will level my truck with a heavy load, I ordered. I installed the product and the ride was an unbearably jarring. I emailed customer service with my concerns and let them know that I thought it would be fair to contact them prior to writing a review to try to come up with a solution. Wayne called me back and as we discussed the issues, it came down to him identifying four things that I consider non-solutions. 1. I cannot return the product. 2. He let me know that if I had more weight in my truck the ride would probably be better. 3. I could sell them on Craigslist. 4. I could add a set of air-bags.
Airbags? These were suppose to be better than airbags. What a waste of money.




by:

Timbrens were very easy to install on my F150. Has made towing my travel trailer much better. I would recommend them to anyone towing a heavy load.

Working as good today as the day I installed



by:

One year of ownership and I am still just as happy as day one. The best compliment I can give for this product is that I notice no difference without the trailer being hooked up - other companies suspension add on's would still be active making for a harsh ride or a lighter wallet if you want better ride quality. But the Timbren bumpers are not effecting my suspension when empty and have been a VERY cost effective solution for my needs - thanks etrailer for the great customer service with all the products recommended by your thoughtful staff.
Once my trailer is hooked up to my Gen-y hitch there is very little sag and a good portion of the suspension travel is left to absorb any bumps and potholes the Gen-y doesn't take care of. 10 thumbs up

Item: TFR1502D: 2 wheel drive Ford F-150
I
haven't used my truck to pull our camper yet ... but soon, weather permitting.
The directions for installing this item on are terrible ... I had to make 3 calls to customer service on how to install and place the tabbed mounting bracket to the frame of my truck ... no one I talked to really knew. I see the picture as they are different, but wanted to be sure if I had done my install correctly.
I recommend the video on U-Tube ... it has good information and the video will walk you thru the install. Please update the video on this product and include specifically how to assemble and place the brackets to the frame of your vehicle.

Thank You

Excellent product. Easy installation.

They have worked flawlessly since installed. The truck settles and sits level no matter the weight of the trailer. They keep the truck from bouncing with weight as well. I pull a 9500lb travel trailer and they really help with squat and handling. I would buy these again.

Easy to install and works as advertised.

Hey Jeffery! It is not a must - it is a spacer and if you dont need it, you don't have to install it. You want an unloaded truck or van to have a half inch to inch and a half gap. Its just there to bridge the gap if there were too much space between the Timbren and the spring. But if all is well without it, that is just fine and dandy!



by:

I was towing my 32 ft travel trailer using standard WdH and sway bar with my f150 and before installing Timbrens, my truck was all over the place forcing me to grip the wheel (white knuckle) and stress out. After installing Timbrens, the rear of the truck feels planted while towing and I can literally tow now with one finger where before, I would have to give my steering wheel the death grip. Added bonus is that I can carry heavier loads in my bed if needed without squat. I can also pull my 32ft Trailer to the dump at State parks without WdH (saves bit of time) while driving slowly. I love the daily drivability and Ecoboost power of my f150 and now it's a towing machine! I'm a happy Timbren customer, as I didn't want to trade for a 250 and now I don't have to.

  • Rear Suspension Enhancement for 2008 Ford F-150 to Reduce Suspension Sag When Towing
    The amount of tongue weight you have at 965 lbs it probably higher than what your F-150 is rated to tow which is why you are experiencing sag even with a weight distribution system. Suspension enhancement can help give you more support but if you are above the weight capacity of your vehicle suspension enhancement would not be enough to allow you to safely tow beyond that. The SumoSprings kit part # SSR-108-40 would give you an additional 1,000 lbs of support when towing though and would...

  • Do Air Lift AirCell Custom Helper Springs Have a Load Rating
    There is no load rating attached to the Air Lift AirCell Custom Helper Springs Kit AL52218. The note in the linked instructions says that they will not alter the GVWR or payload of your 2013 Ford F-150, so as long as you keep the capacity under those weight limits the kit will provide your F-150 with support from heavy loads. In regards to your second question you would still need to use a weight distribution hitch; the Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System # TFR1502D help level your...

  • Can More Than One SumoSprings CSS-1168 be Used at the Same Time
    If the SumoSprings # CSS-1168 is not picking up enough slack on your 2020 Ford Expedition, you can definitely add on to it. I spoke with SumoSprings and they said it is perfectly fine to add on another # CSS-1168 if the first one isn't getting all the sag under control. That being said, as the Timbren # TFR1502D is designed to work on a 2004 to 2014 Ford F-350, I cannot recommend it as a fit. If this does not fix your issue, however, you will most likely need to use a weight distribution...

  • Rear End of 2011 Ford F-150 Still Sags Even with Weight Distribution
    The problem that you are experiencing is a common issue with 1/2 ton trucks like your 2011 Ford F-150. The rear suspension on 1/2 ton trucks will still allow some sag even when using weight distribution. While making some adjustments to the set up of the weight distribution system might help ultimately you will likely need some rear helper springs to eliminate the sag. The helper springs don't have to be air bags. You could use Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System Item # TFR1504D...

  • Installation of a Timbren Vehicle Suspension on a 2014 Ford F-150
    Most likely there is a bolt holding the factory bump stop on your 2014 F-150. You simply raise your truck up off the ground and use a 13mm socket to remove the bolt. Take a look at the video I included to see the removal of the bump stop and installation of the suspension, even though it's on a 2010 F-150 and different Timbren suspension # TFR1504D.

This will be sufficient to tow your boat and trailer but if you would like to upgrade to a class IV then the only option for this is the TorkLift SuperHitch Hero Trailer Hitch Receiver part # TLF1005H.

  • Weight Distribution System Recommendation for a 2013 Ford F-150 Towing 8500 lb Trailer
    Actually for towing a trailer as heavy as yours I have a better solution than suspension enhancement. Instead you would want a weight distribution system. Not only will weight distribution help prevent rear suspension sag like the suspension enhancement, but it will also move part of the tongue weight of the trailer up to the front axle of the trailer which will help with braking and handling unlike suspension enhancement. The best way to pick out a weight distribution system is to base...

  • Recommended Suspension Enhancement To Reduce Sag When Towing Trailer With 2012 Ford F-150
    If you have sag at the back of your 2012 F-150 when towing a load that stays pretty consistent then the best way to help with that is by installing suspension enhancement like part # TFR1504D for a 4-wheel drive or part # TFR1502D if you have a 2-wheel drive truck. These are rubber springs that do not effect the ride of your truck when it is not under load but when towing will become more rigid to help add additional support. Air springs like part # F2525 are a better for your truck when...

  • What is Recommended Distance between Timbren Spring and Axle
    You will want to have the rubber spring of the Timbren part # TFR1502D sit close to the axle but not touching it when unloaded. There isn't an exact dimension for what will work best as people have different preferences and some vehicle suspensions move more in general. Timbren likes to recommend 1 inch between the axle and the Timbren when the truck is unloaded. We have found that this works the best.

  • Can Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancements Be Used With Weight Distribution On 2008 Ford F-150
    The use of rear suspension enhancement along with a weight distribution kit is not recommended. They will tend to work against one another. If sag on your 2008 Ford F-150 is caused by a load or a fifth wheel or gooseneck trailer then suspension enhancement is the way to go If your F-150 is a 2-wheel drive I recommend part # TFR1502D. This system helps provide additional support to give you a smooth, comfortable ride and will not affect the ride when your truck is empty. It will become...

  • Will the Timbren Suspension for the Ford F150 Affect Unloaded Ride Height
    When unloaded you will not see a height increase with the Timbren System # TFR1502D installed on your 2010 Ford F150. You should find that when loaded with either cargo in the bed of your truck or towing a trailer that the rear does not sag as much. Bottom line, when unloaded you will not see difference in ride quality or height with the # TFR1502D installed in your vehicle.

  • 2015 Ford F-150 Sags at the Back When Coupled to Trailer with 550 Pounds Tongue Weight
    Sag at the rear of a vehicle such as your 2015 Ford F-150 can happen from 1 of 2 ways. First, weight in the actual truck bed can cause sag. Second, the tongue weight from a coupled trailer can cause sag. The ways to deal with the sag are different. When sag is caused by a trailer the recommended solution is weight distribution, not helper springs. Weight distribution will more evenly distribution the force of the tongue weight to all of the axles on the tow vehicle and trailer so it treats...

    Since your F-150 is only 3 years old odds are its spring suspension is still in good shape. For this reason I recommend a weight distribution hitch to correct your rear end sag when towing your camper, rather than a helper spring kit. Helper springs are better for supporting your stock suspension with cargo loads in the truck bed but for your application towing a travel trailer a weight distribution (WD) system is the way to go.

Therefore, the only true way to tell what your trucks towing capacity is would be to find both the Gross Combined Weight Rating (GCWR) and the Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW). These figures can be located on the information tag inside the drivers door jamb. If you subtract the GVW from the GCWR, that will give you the maximum gross trailer weight (GTW) you...
