Video Transcript for Review of SuperSprings Intl Vehicle Suspension - Rear Axle Suspension Enhancement - SS66PV

Hi, everyone. Steve here with etrailer.com. Let's take a look at our SumoSprings Custom Helper Spring Set for the rear axle. Now, folks, these are a custom-fit application, so I want you to double-check the Fit Guide here at etrailer.com on our homepage where it says My Vehicle Information, enter things like year, make and model. Make sure you're getting the right parts for your vehicle. Keep in mind, sometimes vehicle's fits could change and the videos could be outdated and it could fit newer year models possibly.

And that being said, these Helper Springs are gonna upgrade your vehicle's rear suspension and give you improved driver control and comfort. What they're gonna do basically is keep your vehicle level when you're towing or hauling a heavy load. They're also gonna help absorb bumps and shocks, and minimize that back-and-forth sway. Now, they use progressive load control, which means these springs will compress according to the weight of the cargo, so for lighter loads, they're gonna compress very easy at first for soft engagement and give you a less bumpy ride, and then when you get super-heavy loads, they're gonna compress a lot more, maybe up to 80% all the way down for support. Now, they work independently from one side to one side, so they're gonna compensate for those off-center loads and reduce body roll during sharp turns.

They are built on a nice, durable microcellular urethane. They work in temperatures from negative 25 degrees Fahrenheit all the way up to 200 degrees Fahrenheit. Now, these will resist damage caused by oils, road salts, and UV rays. They have minimal lateral expansion, and the springs compressed vertically instead of the sides of 'em so that they're not gonna be easily damaged while operating in tight spaces. And these simply bolt on top.

There's a set screw that comes with each one. Very simple install. They're maintenance-free. There's no air tubes to run, like the air pressure monitor systems, those kind of things. It's a simple one-time install.

You don't have to do any drilling or anything like that. Now, the weight capacity at 50% compression is 1,800 pounds. Now, keep in mind before we go here, adding something like these SumoSprings is not gonna increase your vehicle's weight carrying capacity. So, if your vehicle's rated at, let's say, I don't know, 10,000 pounds, these aren't gonna add 1,800 pounds or 3,000 pounds or anything like that, they're just gonna help compensate for that load that's in there and keep your ride height where it needs to be. Well, folks, that's gonna wrap it up for our quick look together today. I'm Steven, thank you for watching, and as always, stay safe while you're towing.
