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 a 2024 GMC Canyon Pulling a Trailer
    Personally I wouldn't go with Timbren's for your needs. They're essentially rubber bump stops that prevent your suspension from flexing when weights placed on the rear of your Canyon. The major issue with them is comfortability when you are not towing your trailer. These significantly affect the range of your suspension which can leave you with a stiff rigid feeling in the rear end. Plus if you hit a bump while there's weight on them they tend to bounce. Instead, I recommend the SumoSprings...

  • Compare SumoSprings SS85FR vs SSR-212-40 for 2016 Chevy Colorado Diesel
    I can definitely shed some light on the confusion. While the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs - Rear Axle # SS85FR and the # SSR-212-40 seem to be exactly identical other than the color, they actually have different-shaped mounting brackets on them to fit different submodels of 2016 Chevy Colorado. I went ahead and attached photos that show this difference. With that being said, you are absolutely correct that the # SS85FR is customized for diesel models. However, the # SSR-212-40...

  • Do I Need Sumo Springs on Both Front and Rear Axle Using Weight Distribution on 2017 Chevy Colorado
    A weight distribution system will transfer weight from the rear axle to the front axle on the tow vehicle but it won't be enough to sag the front suspension and engage the jounce spring most likely. Therefore, you would only want SumoSprings on the rear axle, even when using a weight distribution system. I recommend the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs part # SSR-212-40 or part # SS85FR for models with a diesel engine. The suspension supports will engage first, then you'll set the...

  • Recommended Bump Stop Suspension Enhancement for a 2017 Chevrolet Colorado
    Really the only difference between the Timbren part # TABSGMFCC and part # TABSOSR for your 2017 Chevrolet Colorado is that the former is rated for up to 1,000 lbs while the latter is rated for up to 3,600 lbs. Out of these options I would go with the set that has a higher rating. Since you do off-road driving you will want to use the off-road bumpstops referenced above. If you are looking for ride comfort though I recommend going with the SuperSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs # SSR-212-40....

  • Why Wont Air Lift Ride Control Fit on a 2017 GMC Canyon with Diesel Engine
    I do have a solution for you, but when I spoke with my contact at Air Lift she said that the frame on your 2017 GMC Canyon with the diesel engine is slightly different. Because of this the Ride Control # AL59533 you referenced doesn't line up properly. They currently don't have an adapter but I do have an alternative solution for you. The SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs # SSR-212-40 are a great option in place of any kind of air suspension enhancement. These are made of a durable...

  • Do SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs for a 2017 Chevy Colorado Replace OEM Bump Stops
    The SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs part # SSR-212-40 which are a fit for a 2017 Chevrolet Colorado don't require removal of the factory bump stops. They are positioned to the rear of the OEM bumpstop, but as close to it as possible ensuring that the bolts and brackets do not interfere with wiring per the instructions.

  • How To Stop Side to Side Sway When Towing with 2018 Chevy Colorado
    I do have an option for you but an anti-rattle device won't do anything when towing a trailer. The SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs which install on the vehicle are great at reducing body roll and sway while towing or hauling. If you have a diesel engine then you'll want to use part # SS85FR or if you have a gas engine you'll want to use part # SSR-212-40.

  • Sumo Spring Helper Spring Recommendation for 2020 Chevy Colorado Diesel
    According to SuperSprings, their SumoSprings # SSR-212-40 is NOT a fit for Diesel equipped Colorado models. For the Diesel, you'll want to the the # SS85FR which has the identical capacity. If you click the provided link, you can see a product description video for the SumoSpring product I recommended.

  • Will the RoadActive Suspension Kit Fit a 2019 Chevy Colorado ZR2
    I spoke with RoadActive Suspension and confirmed that the RoadActive Suspension Custom Leaf Spring Enhancement Kit part # RAS4617 is indeed a fit for a 2019 Chevrolet Colorado ZR2. In regards to fitment, RoadActive was not aware of any shock clearance issues but they did state that you would have to change out the shackles which are included so no worries here. That said, there are adjustment that can be made during installation which should then alleviate any clearance issues. As noted,...

  • Rear Axle Suspension Helper Springs for 2019 Chevy Colorado Diesel
    For the 2019 Chevy Colorado with diesel engine there are not any compatible air bag kits (as of April 2019) but we do have other suspension helper kits that can support the rear suspension when it is under the load of your 5000-lb trailer. Based on your trailer weight I recommend the Super Springs kit # SSR-212-40. Their 1000-lb rating is just right for your trailer tongue weight and they will give you the support you need to prevent sag without causing the ride to become harsh. Their...

  • Recommended Suspension Enhancements for a 2018 Chevrolet Colorado with Diesel Engine
    I do have a suspension enhancement system for you but the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs part # SSR-212-40 will not fit a 2018 Chevrolet Colorado or a 2018 GMC Canyon with the diesel engine. The reason for this is because this kit clamps around the frame rail and there are components on the frame rail for the diesel fuel system. Instead, I recommend using the Timbren Suspension Enhancement System part # TGMRCCA which are very similar to the SumoSprings is how they install and function...

  • Recommended Rear Suspension Enchantment for a 2020 Chevrolet Colorado with Diesel Engine
    We have a solution for you. I recommend the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs - Rear Axle part # SSR-212-40. These will give you 1,000 lbs of load support at 50% compression which will fall right inside the sweet spot on your Colorado. Depending on the model your Colorado can haul up to 7,000 lbs. So at most you should be putting 700-1050 lbs of tongue weight on it. Your total in bed payload is again depending on the model 1,523 at most. Please keep in mind that these will not...

  • Recommended Suspension Enhancement and Transmission Cooler for 2017 GMC Canyon 4x4 Used for Towing
    Your 2017 GMC Canyon will have no problem pulling your trailer 5 days a week. You will just want to make sure you don't overload the trailer. I recommend using SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs - Rear Axle # SSR-212-40 to assist your factory suspension system and a transmission cooler like Derale Series 8000 Plate-Fin Transmission Cooler Kit w/Barb Inlets - Class III - Efficient # D13503. This will prolong the life of your vehicle while using it in this way. I recommend using the...
