8,600-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.
They went right on and all the hardware came with them.
good customer service
Easy installation. The truck sits well and feels better on the road
Have not installed product yet,Christmas present for a friend.Box came damaged from postal service,tore open,hopefully all parts are there.
When I called they were very knowledgeable about the products and made sure I ordered what was going to work on my truck.
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.
Worked better than I excepted. I have a old pickup with really tired suspension and this product made it better than new.
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
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.
Easy install - took less than 30 minutes. The truck now sits level with the bed loaded.
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.
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)

Happy with this purchase. Keeps the truck level and the ride smooth.
Improved stability quite a bit on my Lance 815 Tundra combination.
