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 to Help Level 2014 Ford F-350 Under Constant Load
    By 2" leveling kit, I assume you meant a 2" lift kit, is that correct? Also, do you have a F-250 or F-350 and is it 2WD or 4WD?

  • Will the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs # AL57395 Fit a 2016 Ford F-350 Super Duty DRW
    The Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs # AL57395 that you referenced are compatible with a 2WD 2016 Ford F-350 Super Duty even if it has DRW. If your F-350 is a 4WD then you need part # AL57396 instead. It has the same 5,000 weight capacity but a slightly different design to fit the 4WD version. Please keep in mind that any suspension enhancement system does not increase the weight limit of your F-350. It is designed to work with a working suspension that is in good condition. I...

  • Installation of Firestone Air Springs on 1999 F-350 with Gooseneck Hitch
    Your photo was great and captured the exact reason why you would be unable to install the Firestone Air Bags # F2550 along with the Curt Gooseneck Hitch # C60720 you have in your 1999 Ford F-350. The gooseneck is attached to the outside of the frame rails and is blocking the attachment point that the Ride-Rite would need to install. There is a solution for you to get your F-350 level when towing with your Curt Q 20 # C16130 fifth wheel. The SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs - Rear...

  • Recommended SumoSpring System For My 2016 Ford F-250 Super Duty 4WD
    When it comes to adding SumoSprings to your 2016 Ford F-250 Super Duty I recommend The SumoSprings Rebel Custom Helper Springs - 2 Piece - Rear Axle # SS96MR they're confirmed to fit your 4WD vehicle. The SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs - Rear Axle # SSR-114-54 are only for 2 wheel drive and will not work for your 4 wheel drive. The SumoSprings have a 5,000 pound capacity, the system is maintenance-free with no tubing to run or air pressure to monitor like with air springs. They...

  • Comparing the SumoSprings and Air Lift Air Bags for a 2015 Ford F-250 Super Duty
    Yes, suspension enhancements such as the SumoSprings Helper Springs and the Air Lift LoadLifter Air Helper Springs will help to minimize vehicle sag. They do this by transferring the pin weight of the trailer more towards the front of the vehicle which helps dramatically to improve braking, increase stability, and prolong the life of your existing suspension components. The main difference between the SumoSprings Helper Springs and the Air Lift LoadLifter Air Helper Springs is that the...

  • Recommended Rear Suspension Enhancement For Preventing Sway In 2016 Ford F-150 W/ Truck Bed Camper
    For your 2016 Ford F-350 Diesel carrying a 1800lb truck bed camper and towing a 20' boat the correct SumoSprings would be the # SS84VR if your truck is 4WD or the # SSR-114-54 if your truck is 2WD. You will not need to add the springs to the front axle, just the rear. Now since your primary concern is sway I recommend going with a different option, the SuperSprings Custom Suspension Stabilizer and Sway Control Kit # SSA22. This kit will give you 2500lbs of load leveling support which...

    There is jounce spring suspension enhancement for your 2004 Ford F-350 but the Firestone WorkRite has been discontinued for some time now. For jounce-style spring suspension on your '04 F-350 similar to the WorkRite I recommend the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs # SSR-114-54 because they are highly effective, simple to install and maintenance-free.

    For your 2020 Ford F-250 Super Duty there are two SumoSprings options that fit your truck like you mentioned. There's the 2,800 lb kit part # SSR-114-54 and the 1,500 lb kit part # SSR-114-54. Basically you want to go with the lightest duty kit that will work for your application so that you get the support you need without causing your ride quality to be overly harsh. Going heavier than you need will give you a harsher ride quality than you'll want loaded and unloaded. You didn't mention...

  • Are Air Springs or Rubber Springs Better For Sag When Towing a 5th Wheel With a 2008 Ford F-250
    The decision between an air ride system or helper springs should be made based on how you will be using your 2008 Ford F-250 Super Duty. Air bags are a good option if you tow your fifth wheel trailer occasionally and do a lot of hauling with varying load weights. I would recommend using the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs, # F2550, as these air bags will work with a fifth hitch installed in your truck bed. Air springs should be manually adjusted for each load using an air compressor....

    Thank you for all of the info and the photos! The gooseneck brackets you have on your 2001 Ford F-350 look similar to the Reese style 5th wheel hitch brackets but I think we need to look at a different suspension enhancement system as it doesn't look like the brackets from any of the air spring kits we offer will match up or work around the brackets on your truck. I recommend going with the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs # SSR-114-54 for your application for a few reasons; once...

    Yes, the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs part # SSR-114-54 will do an excellent job of helping to level your 2015 Ford F-250 while pulling the Jayco 5th Wheel Trailer. As you mentioned, headlight aim will go back to the correct level and you will also most likely notice an increase is braking as well as overall stability with the SumoSprings installed.

  • Comparing the Timbrens and SumoSprings for a 2016 Ford F-250
    The Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System part # TFR250SDG and the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs part # SSR-114-54 are both great options for your 2016 Ford F-250. The Timbrens will provide more support therefore there will be less squat but the downside of this is that they are rather hard which can result in an uncomfortable ride. The SumoSprings on the other hand will provide slightly less support but they are also much softer which means you will still retain most of your...

  • Recommended Suspension Enhancement For 2019 Ford F-350 Towing 5th Wheel Trailer
    For your 2019 Ford F-350 Long Bed Diesel towing a 5th wheel trailer with a pin weight of 2200lbs I recommend the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs - Rear Axle # SSR-127-54 which offers 2800lbs of support to your rear suspension which is perfect for your needs, and will not affect your unloaded ride quality. The # SSR-114-54 you were looking at only fit the 1999-2016 Ford F-250/350 and would not work on your truck. I included a video of the # SSR-127-54 for you to take a look at.

They are designed not to be engaged when you are without load but to progressively control load as they compress. They are made of high-density Microcellular urethane so they are maintenance free.

  • Comparison of Timbren's Versus SumoSprings for a 2001 Ford F-250
    For your 2001 Ford F-250 I recommend using the Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System part # TFR250SDE instead of the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs part # SSR-114-54 because the Timbren springs are rated up to 6,000 lbs whereas the SumoSprings are only rated up to 2,800 lbs. Therefore, the Timbren springs are going to do a much better job of handling the added weight of your 5th wheel trailer. In addition to leveling support, these springs will also improve handling and reduce...

    The Timbren # TTORTUN4 are a fit for the Toyota Tacoma/Tundra or Nissan Titan, and wouldn't work for your truck, although Timbren does offer fits as long as your truck isn't lifted. The Timbren # TFR350SDE offers up to 8600 lbs of support, is a no drill application, is compatible with fifth wheel or gooseneck hitches and is compatible with vehicles with or without top overload springs.

    The SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs, part # SSR-114-54 are designed to be able to cushion the ride of your 2016 F-250 truck when you are carrying loads, and should do a nice job for you.. They are progressive so they compress as more weight is added to the truck. The springs are an easy no-drill installation as they replace the vehicle jounce bumpers on your truck. Using a suspension enhancement like part # SSR-114-54 will not increase your load capacity.

  • How Well Do SumoSprings for a 2016 Ford F-250 Work to Eliminate Squat
    The correct SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs for a 2016 Ford F-250 is part # SSR-114-54. The SumoSprings will do a great job of reducing rear squat while towing or loaded but no suspension enhancement system would guarantee to completely eliminate squat. That said, I really like the SumoSprings because they not only provide great support but also don't decrease ride quality too much which can be an issue for a lot of these suspension enhancements.
