2001 GMC Sierra - SuperSprings Custom Suspension Stabilizer and Sway Control Kit

  • Rear Axle Suspension Enhancement
  • Leaf Springs
  • Standard Duty
  • SuperSprings Intl

2,500-lb Capacity. Upgrade your rear suspension by installing these helper leaf springs above your GMC Sierra's factory leaf springs. They significantly reduce sway and prevent sagging, which is perfect for towing or hauling heavy loads.


Features:

  • Reinforce your vehicle's rear suspension with extra leaf springs that prevent sagging and reduce sway by up to 30 percent
    • Work like sway bars to stabilize your OEM springs and keep them from twisting
    • Compensate for windy conditions, wind turbulence from big rigs, and weight shifts from cornering
    • Lift your truck when you are carrying a heavy load and prevent bottoming out
  • Adjust automatically to your payload
    • Rollers on each end of the SuperSprings activate when the OEM springs flex under load
    • Rollers deactivate when OEM springs aren't under load
  • Can be customized - the shackles attaching the SuperSprings provide several options for installation
    • Choose a setting that increases load support and ride height for constant heavy loads or to compensate for minor spring fatigue in an older automobile
    • Choose a setting that maintains the original factory ride conditions and minimizes effect on unloaded ride quality and height
    • Choose a medium setting that balances support, height, and ride comfort
  • Install easily - bolt on above your existing factory springs with no drilling required
    • For some models with factory springs that sit above the axle, the included poly spring pads prevent shifting
    • Dense polyurethane blocks seat between the top of the factory springs and the underside of the SuperSprings
  • Require no maintenance - no tubing or air pressure to monitor or adjust like air springs
  • Extend the life of brakes, tires, and factory suspension
  • Made in the USA


Specs:

  • Weight capacity: 2,500 lbs
    • SuperSprings will not increase your vehicle's weight-carrying capacity
  • Limited lifetime warranty
  • 30-Day satisfaction guarantee


Overload Spring vs. Leaf Spring

Note: This kit is designed to fit a vehicle with factory top overload springs. As shown in the picture above, a top overload spring sits above the factory leaf spring pack.


SuperSprings diagram of roller and shackle system for extra leaf spring

These additional leaf springs add support and sway control to your existing OEM suspension. Just bolt on SuperSprings over your existing factory springs, and they automatically work when you need them. As the factory spring flexes, a roller at each end of the beefy helper spring reacts to engage the helper spring and to provide extra support. The springs help to better distribute cargo weight throughout your existing suspension, channeling that weight to the points on the frame that are designed to support heavy loads.


SuperSprings leaf spring installed on a vehicle

Placing these leaf springs above your factory springs helps to keep your OEM springs from twisting, so the SuperSprings act like a sway bar, reducing the body roll that makes driving more difficult and dangerous. With these helper springs, driving is safer and easier when it's windy, when your vehicle is rocked by a passing semi, and when you are cornering. The springs help to reduce sway by up to 30 percent. SuperSprings also allow more wheel travel in the rear suspension when they are under load, so they maintain traction and ride comfort better than rubber or polyurethane bumpers. That means they're great for drivers who frequently tow.


Truck before SuperSpringsTruck after SuperSprings

You can also customize the level of support provided by SuperSprings. For most models, the shackles that attach the helper leaf springs to your existing leaf springs have several installation options:

  • For greater support and ride height when your suspension is under a constant load or if you have an older automobile with some spring fatigue, install the helper springs using the upper bolt holes
  • To maintain the factory ride and reduce the effect on your ride height, install using the lower bolt holes
  • To balance support, height, and ride comfort, install using the upper hole on one end and the lower hole on the other

SuperSprings are a maintenance-free, low-cost alternative to air spring systems, which require constant monitoring and air pressure adjustment. These helper leaf springs respond automatically to the load you carry, so there is no crawling under your truck to adjust them. You'll also reduce wear and tear on your suspension, brakes, and tires, which saves you money. The bolt-on installation means that they are easy to fit - no drilling required.

2020 Ford F-250 Super Duty

Installing these on a 2020 F250 was easier than I thought it would be. I was able to get the springs on whit the center piece and the front shackle bolted without jacking up the truck. I had to jack the frame up a few inches on each side to get the back shackle bolt through. I put the shackle bolts through the bottom holes since I only need the extra support when I tow. I recommend air / power tools for the shackle nuts and it doesn’t hurt using them for the center bracket u bolts. They are lock nuts and they have a long way to run on for each bolt. I did have to bend my parking brake cable hangar out a bit for one of the shackle bolts to clear the cable. The truck seems to sit a little higher in the back. Maybe an inch or so. The ride empty seemed the same except it felt like it didn’t roll quite as much when turning. Rolling over a lip at the end of our driveway the extra stiffness was noticeable, however. I won’t know how well they really work until I get my fifth wheel hooked up.



by:

No issues with install on a 2023, E350 Class C motorhome.
After chalking the front wheels, I used two 3 ton floor jacks with 13” 6x6 blocks just behind the springs to lift the frame and rear tires off the ground to remove the wheels. For safety, 3 ton jack stands were put under the axles during spring installation
After installing the springs per manufacturer instructions, two 1/2” x 10” pieces of all thread with drilled flat bar were used to compress the front end spring.
With the least amount of preload it raised the back a good inch.
The 800# trailer tongue weight will be the next test to see if more preload is needed for a level ride height.

2019 Ford F-250 Super Duty

This was by far the easiest mod I have made to my 2019 Ford Super Duty King Ranch! Only took 45 minutes start to finish. Didn't even take the wheels off. Took some pressure off of the springs by lifting the rear end a little using the trailer hitch. Used the bottom holes on both ends and only raised the rear of the body 1 inch. Great product!



by:

Product worked as described. Shipping was quick (etrailer used "air" to my state, then on UPS truck)
Easy to install, not sure why they included 2 sets of polyurethane blocks (only one set fit my truck)
Don't notice any ride difference when set at lowest setting. Raised truck approximately 3/4". East to readjust for more preload if needed.
Combined these Super Springs with Timbren load handlers. So far so good.
Great improvement over stock while maintaining ride quality.



by:
2020 Ford F-250 Super Duty

Fit was perfect. Only raised the back bumper 3/4" on the lowest setting, which is what I was hoping for. My customer was very pleased and was really looking forward to pulling his fifth wheel without so much sag.
Installation time was less than 45 minutes without removing the wheels.

GREAT HELP, EXCELLENT FIT. FAST DELIVERY. ILL DEFINENTLY USE YOU GUYS AGAIN!!



by:
Ford F-250 Super Duty

Raised the bed about 1/2” after install, unloaded weight ride was not changed much. The anti sway was what I was after, towing 33’ TT and it really made a difference. Install was a breeze with wheels on. F250, thought I would have to cut up the plastic fuel tank shield on driver side. Ended up taking out the top bolt and reversing with the head in and nut outside



by:

The product worked great but shipping and instruction weren’t the best the super springs were sticking out of the box luckily all the hardware was there. For such a heavy product the thin cardboard box didn’t cut it. The instruction were very poor. Came for 5 different model years except mine

Instructions very generic.if I wasn't a mechanic for 50 yrs,I'm not sure I would have been able to install these. Instructions not clear and did not show anything about a Ford e450 rv

  • Recommended Suspension Enhancement for 1998 Minnie Winnie on Ford E-350 Cutaway Chassis
    I have a solution for you, but the SuperSprings Maxim Custom Helper Springs # SSR-180-54-1 are not a fit for your 1998 Minnie Winnie on a Ford E-350 Cutaway Chassis. Instead, you will want to use the SuperSprings Custom Suspension Stabilizer and Sway Control Kit # SSA22, which are designed to fit on the 1998 Ford E-350 Cutaway Chassis. This suspension enhancement will help reduce sway and prevent sagging that may effect the handling on your 1998 Minnie Winnie. These are a maintenance...

  • Recommended Rear Suspension Enhancement For 1990 Ford F-250 W/ Curt Gooseneck Hitch
    I have another option for you, but the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs - Rear Axle # AL57298 you were looking at will not fit your 1990 Ford F-250 with the Curt Gooseneck hitch installed. One option is the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Ultimate Air Helper Springs with Internal Jounce Bumpers - Rear Axle # AL88298 which are confirmed to fit your truck, but you will likely need to drill a few holes in the mounting bracket of your Curt Gooseneck hitch which would void the warranty...

  • Will the SuperSprings Custom Suspension Stabilizer Work On 07 F-350 With Broken or Missing Overload
    The SuperSprings Custom Suspension Stabilizer and Sway Control Kit part # SSA22 requires a top factory overload spring in order to work. If the spring is missing or broken then it cannot be used. Instead, the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs part # SSR-114-47 which is a fit for a 2007 Ford F-350 would be a better option.

  • Will SuperSprings Custom Suspension Stabilizer Fit 2021 Ford F-250 Without Overload Springs
    The SuperSprings Custom Suspension Stabilizer and Sway Control Kit # SSA22 will fit your 2021 Ford F-250 Super Duty whether it has the factory overload springs or not. Some other suspension kits fit depends on the factory overload springs being present which is why we have the note on the fitguide - but the note does say it will fit with or without the overload springs so you're good to go!

  • Can SumoSprings Maxim Work Together With SuperSprings Leaf Spring Enhancement on 2022 Ford E-450
    There isn't a leaf spring helper system that is able to be used on your 2022 Ford E-450 combined with the SumoSprings Maxim Custom Helper Springs # SSR-106-47-1. Reason why is these mount on top of the leaf spring pack so a leaf spring helper like the SuperSprings # SSA22 would interfere with the mounting. If you wanted to use SumoSprings and SuperSprings together you would have to remove the Maxim and go to SumoSprings that mount to the side of the leaf spring pack, the SumoSprings Solo...

  • Can Both Air Lift Help Springs And SuperSprings Stabilizers Be Used Together On A 2019 Ford F-250
    Hey Mike, The SuperSprings Custom Suspension Stabilizer and Sway Control Kit # SSA22 just sits on top of the leaf spring stack so you would be able to also install the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Ultimate Air Helper Springs # AL88399. These air springs sit between the frame and bump out for the jounce bumper, with only a U-bolt wrapping around the block under the leaf spring stack so there should be no interference.

  • Recommendation to Reduce Sag on Left Side of Class C Motorhome without Using Air Bags
    To help level out your new RV that's built on the Ford E-350 chassis I recommend taking a look at the Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System # TFER35092B. These heavy-duty jounce-style springs will replace the factory bump stops on the rear axle to better support the RV's load and help to bring the left side of the coach up for a more level ride. A jounce-style spring system like this will definitely improve your existing left side sag but there is a chance that it won't lift it up...

These springs are designed to compress up to 50 percent under the load, but will not increase your weight carrying capacity. They are a bolt on installation and are maintenance free. They will help absorb bumps and shocks as well as keep your vehicle level. If body roll is your...

  • SuperSprings SumoSprings For a 1997 Ford E-350 Cutaway Van Chassis

While they do not have a SumoSpring for the rear the suspension they do have their Stabilizer and Sway Control Kit in either a 1,400LB # SS94VR or 2,500LB # SSA22 kit. While these do not offer the progressive cushioning like the SumoSprings they do greatly increase stability and will help to reduce rear sway. I recommend using the heavier...

  • Will SuperSprings and Rear Anti-Sway Bar Work Well Together On a 2014 Ford F-350
    The SuperSprings Custom Suspension Stabilizer Kit part # SSA22 is a great option for a 2014 Ford F-350. It will do a great job of helping to providing extra support when towing or hauling. It can then be used with the Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar and End Link Kit part # RM-1139-173-00 no problem. The combination of the two should not be an issue as they really are designed for different purposes, weight distribution and sway respectively.

  • Will Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar Work Well with SuperSpring SSA22
    Rear sway bars for motorhomes actually make the biggest improvement in handling, stability, and overall ride quality so if you were considering the rear sway bar # RM-1139-117 I would highly recommend you go for it. This will work great with the # SSA22 you mentioned as well.

  • Do the SuperSprings Custom Suspension Stabilizers for 2019 Ford F-250 Work with Air Bags
    The SuperSprings Custom Suspension Stabilizer and Sway Control Kit part # SSA22 is a confirmed fit for a 2019 Ford F-250 Super Duty. The springs work to pre-load the factory leaf springs so there will be less squat and saq while towing/hauling. They do stiffen the rear suspension. The super springs mount on top of the leaf spring pack so they should work with a set of air bags just fine.

  • Air Lift or Helper Spring Recommendation for a 2000 Ford F-250 Super Duty Towing a Camper Trailer
    The product that will work best for you will depend on how you will be using your truck and why you are looking for a suspension enhancement system. If you are looking to level your truck because you do a lot of hauling with varying load weights and tow the trailer occasionally then the air bags would work well. I would recommend using the Air Lift LoadLifter air springs, # AL57298, for 2 wheel drive or, # AL57390 for 4 wheel drive models of the 2000 F250. I recommend these air bags systems...

    First, we need to find out how your truck is configured. The 4 inch lift kit will not be a problem as long as your truck has not been fitted with aftermarket springs with the lift kit. In this case I would recommend that you go with a set of Super Springs, see link. The Super Springs will be working at all times to prevent body roll and enhance the suspensions ability. If your truck has dual gas tanks, some of the 1999 models still had this option, you will need to go with a shorter set...
