1,300-lb Capacity. These hollow rubber springs sit above the rear axle to help stabilize and level your vehicle. They also provide a more comfortable ride by absorbing road shock and improving roll stability.

Specs:
Whether you're hauling heavy loads in your bed or cargo area or you're towing a trailer, you will often see the rear of your vehicle sag while the front end rises. In these cases, the rear axle is handling not only the weight of the cargo, but also more of the vehicle's weight. Because less weight is on the front axle, the front tires are making less contact with the road. Overall handling - traction, steering, and braking - is negatively affected. But the resistance from Timbren's Suspension Enhancement System works with your factory suspension to keep your vehicle level and improve your driving experience.
The Timbren system comes with custom-fit brackets that are bolted onto each frame rail above the rear axle. Hollow rubber springs are bolted to the bottom of the bracket and hang down to where the bottom of the spring sits, 1" above the axle. The inch of clearance allows the existing factory suspension to operate normally under light loads and standard terrain, ensuring the smooth, comfortable ride that you are used to.
Timbren Suspension Enhancement Systems are designed to work progressively. When the hollow rubber springs are compressed, the convoluted design causes them to quickly collapse along the folds. Once the folds are compacted, the stacked barrel shape increases resistance, stiffening the suspension and keeping your vehicle level.
Each hollow rubber spring works independently to support the driver's side or passenger's side of your vehicle. This is helpful when you swerve or make sharp turns. Each spring is activated when it is needed, so body roll is greatly reduced. The independent action also works well when you are hauling off-center loads.
Because the vehicle handles better with the springs, less turbulence will be passed along to the trailer, and this helps to keep the trailer in line. Your driving comfort is further enhanced if the trailer does begin to sway (from a gust of wind or a passing semi), because the movement from the trailer is not transferred to your vehicle. This also works to make the sway subside more quickly.
Another great feature of the rubber construction is that the springs absorb most of the road shock, creating a smoother, more stable ride overall when loaded. Wear and tear on the factory suspension is also lessened because the rubber springs work to prevent bottoming out on rough roads.
Timbren's Suspension Enhancement Systems are much easier to install than air springs - there are no air hoses to run, no compressors or gauges to hook up, and no manual adjustments to make. The rubber construction makes Timbren's springs more elastic than similar products constructed of microcellular urethane. And more elasticity allows for a more comfortable ride when loaded or towing because the rubber has more travel.
Improved stability quite a bit on my Lance 815 Tundra combination.
They worked as advertised. I would buy this product again.
Fast shipping would definitely recommend
I can't offer five stars yet, as I haven't installed them yet. I have to do some other work on the rear axle first. However, I did a fit test on one of them and they will work as advertised.
Easy to install great instructions and was shipped very fast really impressed
Easy to install. You may need an impact wrench to break loose the u-bolts that have to be loosened.
I actually found that airbags worked better for my truck and trailer. I ordered those from you as well. May I return the Timbrens for at least partial store credit?
Exactly what I ordered and delivered in a timely fashion!! Thank you!
Google product, worked great with the new trailer I was towing. I need the information on the ones for the front of my Ram 1500 2016 ecodiesel
Great product, reasonable price, easy to install and great customer service!
Gave 4 stars because when the truck is empty the ride is a little rough. But when I'm towing anything it's awesome
Installed this on my 2001 Explorer. Install is easy (assemble unit, bolt on in place of existing bump stop). Annoyed to find it doesn't fit. Specs are gap 1/2"-1-1/2"; there was a gap of 2-3/4". Yeah, they sell spacers for $27 each, but it's really annoying to buy a $225 product that says it fits your truck, only to find that you have to spend 50% more to actually adapt it to your truck!
So far so good works great, now let's see how long they last?
We put theese on all our trucks they work great if you use your truck to carry heavy payloads or pull trailers .
Works great will never have air bags ag ain
Very easy to install took about 30 minutes. If it manages the weight of my trailer I will be more impressed with your product.
Fast shipping
Easy install. Haven't hauled my trailer yet.
Works well
Customer service was great. Fast delivery. Very easy to install. 35 minutes it was done.
Worked excellent for trailering.
Easy to install. Works as advertised. Etrailer rocks!
I have not fully loaded my Odyssey yet BUT compare to original “pacifiers” which are made from kinda tough popcorn, those timbers are looking reliable.
easy to install, Solved my trailer bouncing over bumps problem.
I never received the item so I canceled and ordered through [online store] I got it the following day. Now, months after I canceled my order, I received this empty box with and note from the mail carrier stating that he delivered an empty box.
