Heavy front loads like plows or equipment can make the front end sag and throw off steering, braking, and headlight aim. The Timbren Front Suspension Enhancement System adds 5,600 lbs of capacity to help keep things level and stable. Its hollow rubber springs provide extra support as needed while still letting your leaf springs move freely with light loads. That means better steering control, improved braking, and a safer, more balanced ride when working under real weight.


Rough pavement or bumpy terrain can make the front end bounce and wear down stock suspension. These hollow rubber springs take the hit instead, absorbing road shock before it reaches the cab. By cushioning impacts and reducing harsh jolts, they make the ride smoother and protect your factory suspension from bottoming out. It’s an easy way to take the edge off rough roads without changing your everyday ride feel.

When cornering or driving with uneven loads, each spring works on its own to keep your vehicle planted. This independent side-to-side action helps reduce body roll in turns and compensates when a load sits off-center. You’ll feel more stable pulling into driveways, turning on grades, or maneuvering around obstacles.

Each kit includes two hollow rubber springs with vehicle-specific brackets and hardware that replace your factory bump stops. The system bolts to the frame above the front axle with drilling required for installation. With no airlines or compressors to maintain, it’s a straightforward setup that adds real support without extra upkeep. And with a limited lifetime warranty and satisfaction guarantee, you can count on it for the long haul.

I hear you, and that makes sense based on what you’re describing. If the Timbrens are in constant contact, they’re basically always engaged, which is why the front end feels so stiff instead of only firming up under load. You might actually be a really good candidate for SumoSprings part # SSF-281-47 (as long as your truck is a 2WD) They’re a similar concept but made from a softer, more progressive material, so they compress more gradually instead of feeling like a hard stop. That usually gives you support when you need it without taking away all the ride comfort like you’re experiencing now. Glad to hear the install went smoothly and the quality was there, that’s pretty typical with Timbren, it just comes down to how they behave on your specific setup. What were you mainly trying to improve up front, sag, handling, or just a smoother ride overall?

The timbren springs are working out better than expected. I installled new Monroe matic RV shocks front and rear on my 2006 Chevy Silverado 1500 just prior to putting the timbrens on the front and the sumo springs on the rear and the ride is great especially with a load or hauling my travel trailer and the ride is just as smooth empty. I highly recommend the timbren and sumo springs because they fit by application and there is nothing additional to buy. Thanks etrailer.

I have upgraded towards trailing with my truck camper Artic Fox 990. I have not had the time to reach to etrailer for a solution with my 1998 Dodge 2500 timbrens installation. I have a new addition and will install the timbrens on a F-550 to have the same travel assurance...Pre trip test run to Key West early this winter... Anchorage 2024 Spring...Thank you etrailer

Still going strong. The ride is a little bumpy but when I tow the truck doesn’t feel “squishy” whenever I make my turns. I’m still super happy about the product.

Great product. Very solid and holding up well in my motorhome. My friend has sumo springs and they have a softer ride, but they had to be replaced after a few years, due to his weight distribution. Mt Timbrens seem much stronger. A little bit firmer ride, but the shocks balance that out. I would buy them again.
