Features to know about

Stay Level Under Heavy Loads: 3,500-lb Load Leveling Capacity

When you’re towing a trailer or hauling a bed full of gear, sag can throw off your steering and braking. The Hellwig Load Pro 35 helper springs add up to 3,500 lbs of load leveling capacity to keep your truck riding level and steady. By upgrading your factory leaf springs, they prevent rear-end squat and make towing and hauling feel safer and more controlled.

Cut Down on Sway and Bounce: Flexes with Factory Leaf Springs

Heavy loads can make your ride feel loose or bouncy over dips and turns. These custom helper springs flex with your factory leaf springs to reduce sway and body roll while limiting bounce. That keeps your vehicle stable through corners, curves, and uneven roads—even when fully loaded.

Handle Uneven Loads with Ease: Independent Side Adjustment

If you’re carrying uneven cargo or towing off-center weight, these helper springs can be adjusted separately on the driver’s and passenger’s sides. Fine-tuning each side lets you keep the truck level so your handling stays balanced no matter how the load sits in the bed.

Built to Last Through Real Work: Durable Steel Construction

Hellwig builds these helper springs from heavy-duty steel for long-lasting performance you can rely on. The silver vein hammer tone powder coat finish resists corrosion, so you get consistent support through years of towing and hauling. Mounting hardware is included, and the bolt-on design makes installation straightforward with basic tools.

I wish we did too, Otis! The problem is that we have multiple warehouses. We don't stock everything at our Wentzville location where we used to offer will call which caused problems. We decided that although it's a great idea, we shouldn't do it if we can't do it right.

by:
Item shipped quickly, when installer open packages all four of the u bolt mounting brackets were missing parts. Contacted Mya at etrailer she assured me a new complete mounting kit would be shipped today.
by:
I was very disappointed. etrailer only sent 1 of the two packages that was part of the complete item, shipped in two separate packages. I contacted them and they side it would be 45 days before they would receive the complete item.
I decided to return the first package and will try to find this item where I can get it sooner.
I have ordered other things from etrailer and have not had any problems.

The motorhome we own is famous for a droopy rear end, scraped bottom on any slope. We spent 2 months in Alaska including a trip to the Arctic Circle. The The Hellwig helper springs made a world of difference,no bottoming of the rear end.I have purchased a lot of products from etrailer and always found the to be; price competitive, good quality, fit accurate, in stock, fast shipping and provide before & after sales suppore.

Wow, 2 months in Alaska? That must have been beautiful. Would I be correct in assuming you got a front row view of the Northern Lights during your trip?

by:
etrailer customer support was great! Shipment to AK got damaged first time and they responded very quickly and sent me all the replacement parts I needed. The product is great and would definitely buy again if I swap out to a new truck!

Hard to review a product the day after it arrives sometimes. I did however mock the overloads up on the truck to make sure everything was going to fit. I need these to help with tongue weight on a bigger fifth wheel rv I tow. I like the fact that I can adjust preload tension. I also have timbrens under the truck but need to correct some sway under windy conditions. Time will tell.
by:
Customer service person Jill is a diamond in the rough, a consummate professional diservant of a pay raise. The Pro 35 helper springs exceeds my expectations.
by:
The product is great and installed fairly easy. The only issue I had was the box was not secure upon arrival and we had to make two plates that were missing. The box needs to be heavier.
