Specs:
A heavy front load, such as a snowplow or a winch, can cause front-end sag as your factory suspension compresses under the weight of the load. This means that the front 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 rear axle, your rear 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.
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.
The springs can also compress by as much as 80 percent to support a heavy front 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 rear 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.
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.

Now, the helper springs upgrade your vehicle's front suspension for improved driver control and comfort. They really help support heavy front-end loads to keep your vehicle level. They help absorb bumps and shocks and they help minimize sway.
These springs feature progressive load control so the springs actually compress according to the weight of your cargo. So for instance, on lighter loads the springs compress easily at first for soft engagement and a less bumpy ride.And then for heavier loads, the springs compress by as much as 80% for maximum support. Now, these springs work independently from each other to compensate for off-center loads which really helps reduce body roll during sharp turns. They're made from a durable microcellular urethane. They're designed to work in temperatures anywhere from -25-degrees Fahrenheit to +200-degrees Fahrenheit.
And the unique construction really helps resist damage that's typically caused by oils, road salts and UV rays. Now, with these installed, they feature minimal lateral expansion so these springs compress vertically instead of off to the side so they aren't easily damaged when operating in tight spaces.The best feature about the system is once they're installed you don't have to worry about them. They're maintenance free. There's no tubing to run. There's no air pressure to monitor like with air springs and it's a simple no-drill installation.
Everything needed for installation is included so you get detailed installation instructions to walk you through the whole process step-by-step. You get two springs and you get the necessary brackets or off-set plates. You get the necessary hardware and you get a tube of Loctite that gets applied to the threaded portion of the plates.The plates are made from steel and they feature a really nice, powder-coated finish so they don't rust or corrode. The product is made in the U.S.A. When it comes to the weight capacity at 50% compression, that's 1000 pounds.
Just keep in mind that SumoSprings will not increase your vehicle's weight carrying capacity. That's going to do it for today's look at the SumoSprings solo custom helper springs for the front axle.
