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 Sway Control for a 2019 Ram 1500 w/ Air Ride Pulling a Pop-Up Trailer
    Hey Chip! If you're dealing with that much sway, I would recommend a weight distribution system not one of the SumoSpring systems. I recommend the Fastway e2 Weight Distribution w/ 2-Point Sway Control item # FA92-00-0450. This system is built for smaller trailers like yours and works with tongue weights up to 450 lbs. With the weight of your trailer and gear combined this would definitely get that sway under control. Since you already have factory air ride and it's not helping your sway...

  • SumoSprings Suspension Enhancement Recommendation for 2023 Ram 1500 Towing Travel Trailer
    Hey Ron, based on the weights you plan to tow the better option would be the higher rated # SSR-307-47 as it is rated for an additional 1,500 lbs of support as opposed to the part # SSR-307-40 at 1,000 lbs. The ride quality is going to be really similar between the two but the additional support will be more beneficial.

  • Best Suspension Enhancement for a 2016 Ram 1500
    There is certainly some give and take when adding suspension enhancements to a vehicle. The give being that you will sacrifice some of the ride quality while towing/loaded and the take being that you gain some of the suspensions strength back while towing/loaded. If you think about it, the suspension enhancements will stiffen the stock suspension to eliminate sag with a heavy trailer so it will be difficult to maintain the factory ride quality after they are installed. The best option...

  • Blue Ox SwayPro Weight Distribution Arms for 850 lb Tongue Weight
    I'm glad you trust us, and we can definitely help you out so you can enjoy your voyage instead of being understandably anxious about the sway. While there is always going to be at least a bit of sway, it should not be to the degree you were describing, and the reason you are experiencing that is because the spring bars for your Blue Ox SwayPro Weight Distribution Hitch # BXW0750 are not rated high enough. That system is designed for total tongue weights (TTW) between 550 lbs and 750 lbs,...

  • Troubleshooting Sag When Hauling A travel Trailer With A 2022 Ram 1500
    Hey Tim, I got your picture and it does look like you do have a little bit of sag while hooked up to your trailer. An easy way to see how much sag you're getting is to measure from the ground up to the center of the wheel well while unloaded and then again while loaded. You'll see the rear come down and the front raise as weight is added. We recommend staying within an 1" or less difference from the factory ride height. With Rams using coil springs instead of a leaf springs you'll typically...

  • Recommended SumoSprings for a 2021 Ram 1500 Pulling a Travel Trailer
    Thanks for the picture! For your 2021 Ram 1500 I recommend the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs item # SSR-307-47 over an air bag system. These 1,500 lbs capacity springs have a progressive load control. Which means the springs compress according to the weight of your trailer or cargo in the bed. When you are not towing or loaded down you won't notice they are installed. Under a heavy load these springs will compress by as much as 80% to support your suspension and keep your truck...

    Yes, if you are wanting to use the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Ultimate Air Helper Springs # AL88375 on your 2022 Ram 1500 you will have to cut off the jounce bumper bracket. We do have some other options for adding support to the rear suspension on your Ram if you do not want to remove the bracket. First the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs will connect right to the bracket. These can be acquired with 1,000LB Capacity # SSR-307-40 or 1,500LB Capacity # SSR-307-47. Best of all they...

  • Custom Helper Springs For A 2019 Ram 1500
    The SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs # SSR-307-47 has a higher weight capacity being at 1,500 pounds and The SumoSprings Springs # SSR-307-40 have a 1,000 weight capacity. The # SSR-307-47 will be your best bet on your 2019 Ram 1500. The sumo springs have a simple, no-drill installation and will work in temperatures from -25 degrees F to 200 degrees F. Using the Sumo Springs will not increase your vehicle's weight-carrying capacity. I attached an installation video link below.

  • Are the Blue or Black SumoSprings Going to Be Best For 2020 Ram 1500?
    Since your weight distribution hitch is working to keep your 2020 Ram 1500 level I recommend going for the lighter Blue # SSR-307-40 springs. These have the 1" spacer as well like the heavier Black # SSR-307-47 springs which you can take out or leave in depending on how the ride quality performs. I feel like with the lighter blue springs you will not notice them even if they are touching the leaf springs unloaded. Often times as trucks get older the springs sag so your suspension is likely...

  • Suspension Enhancement for 2019 Ram 1500 Classic
    I checked with RAS and they do not offer a fit for the 2019 Ram 1500 Classic at this time. For a suspension enhancement kit that fits your truck that provides support without being overly harsh the SumoSprings kit part # SSR-307-40 would work great.

  • Best SumoSprings For 2022 Ram 1500 Towing Camper Trailer
    The best option for SumoSprings for your 2022 Ram 1500 for towing a camper trailer are the 1,500 lb capacity springs, with the correct fit for your truck being the following: - SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs # SSR-307-47 The reason why the # SSR-307-47 are the best for your '22 Ram for towing a camper is because they have enough capacity at 1,500 lbs to give your suspension the support it needs and won't provide a stiff ride like the higher-rated springs can.

  • What Is The Mounting Hardware Of The SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs SSR-307-40 Made Of?
    I reached out to my contact at SuperSprings and the Solo Custom Helper Springs # SSR-307-40 you were looking at for your 2021 Ram 1500 Crew-Cab 4WD include mounting hardware that is made out of standard steel, and is not stainless steel. If you are worried about rust building your best bet would be assembling the spring and then painting the hardware before mounting. I included a video of the # SSR-307-40 for you to take a look at.

  • Recommended Rear Axle Jounce Spring Kit for 2017 Ram 1500 4x4 Quad Cab
    Air bags kits are a better option when your trailer or cargo load varies a lot, especially with an uneven cargo load, but for towing one trailer that is more or less uniformly loaded up each trip I recommend jounce springs. Jounce springs will give you progressive rear axle support when you need it but they will otherwise not affect your ride quality. They also cost less than air bag systems, are much easier to install, and they require no maintenance. Since most of your trailer's 5900-lb...

  • Which SumoSprings Kit for 2020 Ram Rebel 1500
    We have two SumoSpring options that fit your 2020 Ram 1500 Rebel with the tow package. We have the part # SSR-307-47 which can provide up to 1,500 lbs of additional support or we have the # SSR-307-40 which can provide up to 1,000 lbs of support. Since you will be on the higher end of your towing capacity the better option would be the 1,500 lb # SSR-307-47. Unlike other options (Timbren specifically) the SumoSprings aren't nearly as harsh so the higher capacity kit won't make your daily...

    For your 2020 Ram 1500 and how you plan to use your truck the best suspension enhancement is the SumoSprings Solo part # SSR-307-40. This kit is the better balance between ride quality and support than the Timbren you mentioned as well. Timbrens are best for people who mainly use their vehicle for towing or otherwise loaded down and need the support most of the time. Unloaded they are pretty harsh. Whereas the SumoSprings give great support still but they aren't nearly as harsh unloaded.

    I do have an option for a 2014 Ram 1500 but the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs part # SSR-307-40 won't do much for a lifted vehicle. Instead, I recommend the Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System part # TDR1500DQ which is really the only option for lifted vehicles because you can add spacers to compensate for this, the Timbren Spacers part # A25723-90AH00 which can be stacked.

    You can use the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs # SSR-307-40 on your 2017 Ram 1500 with a 4" lift but you may need some spacers to get the maximum performance out of these springs. The total stack size of these springs and mounting hardware is 6-1/2", and they will mount in the spot where your factory bump stops currently sit.

  • Recommended SumoSprings For a 2023 Ram 1500 While Towing a Travel Trailer
    I recommend using the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs # SSR-307-40 on your 2023 Ram 1500. This springs are their 1,000lb capacity springs. While they do offer higher capacity springs I feel these will help provide you with the best ride quality. They will also work best with a weight distribution hitch like the Equal-i-zer # EQ37100ET which you should have when hauling a travel trailer. This particular hitch is rated for trailer up to 10,000lbs with a tongue weight of 600-1,000lbs....

  • Suspension Enhancement for 2019 Ram 1500 Classic for Use with Weight Distribution
    Since you are wanting more support to improve ride quality I actually would not recommend an air bag kit as they are notoriously pretty harsh when inflated. They provide great support but when in use the support is not as soft as what "air bag" might imply. So instead the best solution is a SumoSprings # SSR-307-40 which will give you a softer support.
