Rear Suspension Support

Towing or hauling a heavy load can cause rear sag as your factory suspension compresses under the weight of the load. This means that the rear axle is trying to support not only the extra load but also the weight of your vehicle. And because there is less weight on your front axle, your front tires make less contact with the road, which causes problems with traction, steering, and braking. SumoSprings upgrade your vehicle's factory suspension to level your vehicle, improve driving performance, and keep your ride comfortable.


Installed spring when it is not compressed

SumoSprings provide progressive load control - the more you load them, the stiffer they become. With a lighter load, the springs will compress easily for soft engagement and a less bumpy ride. The closed-cell urethane material allows for smooth contact between the springs and your vehicle. And the springs act like a shock absorber to dampen road vibration.


Installed spring when it is compressed

The springs can also compress by as much as 80 percent to support a heavy rear load and to help your factory suspension bear up under the load. This evens out the weight, which levels your vehicle and ensures that your front tires are making better contact with the road. A level ride means that you have improved driving control, ensures safe headlight aim, and helps to minimize sway. The springs also support your factory suspension, which helps prevent sagging and reduces bottoming out.


The springs work independently from one another to support each side of your vehicle. This action helps to reduce body roll when you make a sharp turn. This also helps compensate for an off-center load.


Durable, Custom-Fit Springs

These microcellular urethane springs are tough. They resist abrasion, oil, salt, and UV rays that can more quickly wear out other springs, and they perform well in temperatures ranging from -25 F to 200 F (-33 C to 93 C).


SumoSprings compress vertically with minimum expansion to the sides, so they won't be damaged by nearby mechanical parts and they fit safely into tighter spots. And unlike air springs, SumoSprings require no maintenance or adjustment.


The helper springs are custom designed to fit your vehicle, and they install easily - no drilling required.

  • Recommended Suspension Enhancement for 2020 Ford F-150 with 1,500 Pound Trailer Tongue Weight
    The 1,000 pound capacity SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs # SSR-117-40 for 4 Wheel Drive and # SSR-116-40 for 2 Wheel Drive referenced in your question will offer a smoother empty ride in your 2020 Ford F-150 than a higher rated alternative spring. It is important though to keep in mind that any weight coming from behind the rear axle of your F-150 and from the trailer hitch itself should also be considered when choosing a suspension enhancement system, as this will be included to...

  • Rear Suspension Enhancement To Reduce Bouncing When Towing a Enclosed Trailer With a 2017 Ford F-150
    The Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Ultimate Air Springs # AL88385 are going to work better to stop the bouncing that you are experiencing in your 2017 Ford F-150 than the RoadActive Suspension Custom Leaf Spring Enhancement Kit # RAS3611-Y. The Air Lift kit has an internal jounce spring that is designed to help reduce the bouncing that you are feeling by absorbing it. The RoadActive is strictly to provide stability and reduce sag on the rear suspension. I recommend the SumoSprings Solo Custom...

  • Picking SumoSprings Set that Fits 2011 Ford F-150 Raptor
    We have two sets of SuperSprings that fit your 2011 Ford F-150 Raptor. We have the part # SS52GR which has a 1,500 lb capacity and the # SSR-116-40 which has a 1,000 lb capacity. Picking between capacities comes down to what you can get away with for support without going overboard. Since adding suspension support can make the ride quality harsher you really want to go with just enough to allow you the stability you need. So if you are going to be at your towing or payload capacity often...

  • Recommended Industry Standard Rails and SumoSprings for a 2014 Ford F-150 2WD
    The Curt E16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch item # C16115 will work great with the Lippert Turning Point pin box. It has a 16,000 lbs capacity which will work great with your Reflection 269RD 5th wheel trailer. A rotating pin box is the best option for your short bed 2014 F-150 because a slider will not give you enough clearance to turn and back into tight spaces with a 5-1/2' bed. To attach the E16 you will want the B&W Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches item...

  • Choosing Correct SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs for a 2011 Ford F-150
    Yes, the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs part # SSR-116-40 for 2WD or part # SSR-117-40 for 4WD are a great option for a 2011 Ford F-150. They offer a bolt-on fit and work well to reduce sag while towing or hauling. The 1,000 lbs of support they provide will be more than enough for your setup. Just make sure the tongue weight of the trailer and weight of cargo in the bed over the rear axles does not exceed this rating.

  • Recommended SumoSprings Helper Springs for 2020 F150 Raptor
    I can confirm that the # SSR-116-40 you were looking at are also a fit on 4wd versions of the F-150, including the F-150 Raptor, but there is a better solution for you. Instead of the # SSR-116-40 which are only rated for 1000-lbs of support, I recommend using the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs - Rear Axle # SS52GR since they're rated for 1500-lbs of support. I've linked a short review video of these springs for you to check out, but the # SS52GR are the preferred solution for...

  • Recommended SumoSprings for a 2015 Ford F-150 with 800 Lb Load
    The SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs part # SSR-116-47 is what I recommend for your 2015 Ford F-150. The SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs part # SSR-116-40 would also work for you but you will be near the capacity of 1,000 lbs with your 800 lb setup which is why I recommend the set rated for 1,500 lbs. This will ensure that the springs offer you with the correct amount of support and comfort. I have attached a review video for you as well.

  • Recommended SumoSprings Custom Helper Springs For 2015 Ford F-150 King Ranch 2WD
    For your 2015 Ford F-150 King Ranch Short Bed EcoBoost 2WD either the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs # SSR-116-40 or # SSR-116-47 would fit. The # SSR-117-47 is designed for a 4WD truck and would not work on your vehicle. Now the difference between the two options is the # SSR-116-40 has a 1000lb capacity where the # SSR-116-47 has a 1500lb capacity. I recommend going with the # SSR-116-47 as it offers the most support and will not decrease the unloaded ride quality as it is a...

  • Which SumoSprings Are Best for a 2016 Ford F-150 Towing a Small Trailer
    The SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs part # SSR-116-40 which have a 1,000 lb weight capacity would offer plenty of support for your 2016 Ford F-150 towing a Palomino PaloMini 142 CK. These will not effect your unloaded ride quality unless you went over a pot hole or something else of that nature and even then it won't really degrade the ride quality. In regards to height change, there will be none with the SumoSprings as they won't even be engaged until the threshold of your suspension...

  • Correct SumoSprings for a 2020 Ford F-150 (2WD)
    The correct SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs for a 2020 Ford F-150 (2WD) is part # SSR-116-40 for 1,000 lbs or part # SSR-116-47 for 1,500 lbs. The SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs part # SSR-117-47 is for a 2020 Ford F-150 (4WD) and won't work.

  • Does SumoSprings Solo Kit # SSR-116-40 Require Using Spacer
    If you didn't install the spacer block of the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs # SSR-116-40 the spring wouldn't engage till the vehicle suspension is compressed considerably. This might improve ride quality but it basically would render the system non-effective since the support wouldn't be there when needed.

  • Rear Suspension Enhancement Product for 2019 Ford F-150
    If your weight distribution system is set up properly, and you're using the correct system whose capacity can handle the fully loaded tongue weight of your trailer, you shouldn't still have a much of a problem with the rear suspension sagging. Before purchasing a rear suspension product, I'd recommend consulting the installation instructions and revisiting the setup procedure for the weight distribution system you're using to ensure that everything's been set up properly. I'd also recommend...
