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. 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 because the rubber has more travel.

Delivered in 3 days, installed with just a few hand tools total time took about 20 minutes. Tested immediately with 2 tons of mulch in the bed of my truck. Best I have seen for he money. Awesome!!! Great product.
Great product. Stabilized my loads and rides better.
Very good information and fitment. Fast delivery. One of the better businesses to deal with. Thanks!
Great product and easy to install as per the directions that were included. I would recommend them to anyone in need of this kind of product for your truck.
Seems like it will be a great help with overload conditions. Fast delivery and easy install.
I bought these for a 2020 Ram 2500 because they had great reviews here and at a lot of other places around the internet. They do not fit correctly. On the passenger side, they are almost touching the frame with no load in the bed or on the hitch. The ride is absolutely terrible, very rough and painful. The ONLY time it's tolerable is with my 3000 pound camper in the bed of the truck. I would have returned these, but I waited a few months to install them, so it was too late by the time I realized how bad they were for my application. If you have a truck that is always loaded with a lot of weight, this would be awesome. Otherwise, spend the extra money and get air bags. I will be installing air bags and throwing these in the trash.
Installed this kit on the front of my 2012 FORD F250 4X4 AND they work well so far.
Product reuses factory mounting bolts which when installing on a pickup with more than a few years old plan on buying new.
Great experience, price leader, free shipping and great instructions. I had my new Timbren supports installed in 30 minutes.
Thank you,
Don
Product was great and easy to install. It took about 30 minutes to take the originals out and put in the new one.
Was easy to install however I'm not sure they are totaly seated, ill wedge and hook heavy trailer to seat. Came in a few days totally satisfied.
Sales department,
Great product.
I installed these on my last Ram 1500. Time to install them on our new 1500. This is the easiest solution to help with the squat.
Great customer support. Selected the proper parts ,received promptly, installation was simple
Appears to be as described. Helpful video on the website showed installation process
Great customer service and easy install ation.
Great product. Great idea and works as it should. Didn't give a 5 star because the mounting bolts were a little on the cheap low quality side. But other than that no complaints
Really good customer service!
The product first arrived in a damaged box with one of the washers missing, but ETrailer did resupply that. The hardest part was finding a shop able (needs the right tools to depress coil springs) and willing (a potential liability issue messing with suspension) to replace it for a reasonable cost. Eventually a local tire shop agreed to. This was for a 2014 Honda Odyssey, especially for pulling a pop-up. Took two camping trips last summer, one before and one after installation, and I have been pleased with the added stiffness in the rear suspension. It made about 1 to 1.5 inch of difference in resting position when fully loaded and towing and has helped smooth out bumps and humps in the road - both when towing and not.
Installed these on a 2002 Tundra last week. They appear well made and ride about two inches below the axle stop. Instructions are straight forward but I would have appreciated a torque value for the attachment bolt. I have not towed with this setup yet.
We put theese on all our trucks they work great if you use your truck to carry heavy payloads or pull trailers .
Really easy to install . Haven’t tried them out yet hooked up to a trailer. I feel like I won’t be disappointed .
Easy installation. However, product has not been tested in a manner appropriate to provide rating.
Just what my truck needed easy to install and not to bad when I got off road either.
