Specs:
Whether you're hauling heavy loads in your bed or cargo area or 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 your rear axle. Hollow rubber springs are bolted to the bottom of the bracket and hang down to where the bottom of the leaf 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 your 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.

Review from a similar Aeon Spring System in Vehicle Suspension
this is the second set of Timbren springs I have purchased, the first set was on my Ford Raptor, they took all of the sag and sway out of pulling my boat. I have this set on my 2015 GMC Denali 2500HD, I pull a 42 ft. 5th wheel and the Timbren's take all of the sag and sway out, these are in my opinion the best product I have purchased for my truck. 683687

I carry 1400 pounds of tools and supplies in my NV200. These helped carry the load, along with heavier shocks. Very happy! 691745

5 stars. Easy to install and made a big difference when pulling a 9k pound travel trailer. I would recommend it to anyone pulling a trailer. Kept it from sagging and level. 699184

Installed this on my 2009 Caravan because when I had a hitch mount 4-bike platform rack hanging off the back and was loaded with camping gear and family, the rear suspension was terrible, it would bottom out, and my headlights pointed up so that everyone would flash their brights at me. New shocks helped, but did not solve the problem. This product did fix the problem and I am very happy. I was concerned about the feel when the van us unloaded, but this has not been an issue. I highly recommend this product. 796869

Review from a similar Aeon Spring System in Vehicle Suspension
I first put the Timbrens on the rear to help stop bouncing and porpoising on highways and bridge ends when towing. The rears have a gap and do not touch the springs until the truck is loaded, working great and keeping a smooth unloaded ride. The front Timbrens fit snugly and touch all the time. The ride is firm and a bit harsh with my unloaded truck having a snow plow spring option. When my trailer 30 ft trailer is hooked up, the front of the truck is slightly lighter. Towing with the Timbrens is nice and the bounce and rebound porpoising is very controlled. I would like the front Timbrens to be a little softer when the truck is unloaded, but I think these units are a nice add-on for better control, safety, and preventing damages. I had the fronts installed at the shop when rotating tires and a front end alignment. The rears installed easily. 691475

So far they look great. I will put on this weekend and see how they work with my travel trailer. 476068

Doesn't get any easier for an install. A jack, some soapy water and a couple pieces of 2x4. In about 5 minutes you're done. Took out almost all sag when I dropped my travel trailer on the ball. Great addition to the suspension. 488109

Not sure these were the best thing for my Ram 1500 pulling a 5th wheel. On some roads get a lot of bucking. Just ordered a set of Air Ride 5000's to try next. Larry T 617920

Very happy with my timbrens and quick shipping. Added these to a 2013 2500HD 4X4. Quick and simple to install. improved ride quality and takes the squat out when pulling a gooseneck trailer. Very happy and would recommend to anyone wanting to improve quality of ride height. 493335

Review from a similar Aeon Spring System in Vehicle Suspension
I bought these as a replacement for "air bags" which I had two different sets, which failed over 10 years. i would say this product is helpful with pulling a trailer and lighter loads but from time to time I haul heavier loads and this product doesn't offer as much help/support as the air bags. This product is a little cheaper and if they don't weaken over time they will be a help. I have added additional leaf springs to two different pickups but then you end up with a stiffer ride full time. 421383

Review from a similar Aeon Spring System in Vehicle Suspension
Rear suspension pads work great. Ride is still like factory with no load unless driving over a big bump at high speed. When towing a 32 foot travel trailer the sag in back end of truck is greatly reduced with a lot more control. Easy to install. The downside is when truck is full with passengers and not towing anything the added weight makes the ride rougher. Shipped on time. 575558

I have a Timbren rear suspension system on my 1982 Chevy truck that I still own, and after 20 years they still work fine. This latest set installed easily on my 2001 F-250 and they work just as well with and without a load. 440182
Review from a similar Aeon Spring System in Vehicle Suspension
Have not tested it out yet, but the installation took about 15 minutes by myself, looking forward to trying them out with my 28ft enclosed trailer. You will need a block of wood under them when you let the jack down to seat them in the cups fully there is no way you can snap them in by hand, the video had that great suggestion 199076

I ordered timbrens for the front and rear of my chevy 2500. I have a 2000 lb truck camper and I wanted something to help carry the load a little better. I had no idea that my front bump stops had worn away to almost nothing until I installed these. They have worn well and performed well so far. 628835
Josh - 04/16/2020Review from a similar Aeon Spring System in Vehicle Suspension
I bought these for a 2012 GMC 2500 Duramax. The installation for these was much easier than I anticipated (I can't say the same for the front suspension system.) Just lift up your truck, pry out the stock bumper stops, line up the Timbren springs with a 2x4 underneath, and lower the truck. The weight of the bed/frame is enough to get the Timbren spring to seat correctly. This took me less than 10 minutes. Ride quality seems to have improved as big bumps on the road are less rough. These keep the truck from sagging underneath the weight from a trailer, too, though I didn't have much problem with that to begin. Overall, I like this addition. Easy. 48427

Review from a similar Aeon Spring System in Vehicle Suspension
These are one of the best products ever! Simple, effective and a reasonable price. They are carefree, invisible when unloaded and very easy to install yourself. I tow a 37ft 12,500lb 5th wheel with my 2018 2500HD. Though my truck already handled the load well, these make the ride more stable and controlled. Lifts the rear up about 1.5 inches as well as keeps things centered from left to right. What's most important when towing is keeping the steer axle on the road. Though I recommend them for any towing configuration; for those of you that push the limits, these are a must have. Brilliant product! Thanks Timbren for the magic bullet! 708124

I purchased these to help with the squat on my F-150 when towing my 32--foot travel trailer. I need to tweak the setup on my WDH, but otherwise am very pleased. Without the trailer, you don't even know they're there. 558730

Excellent product! Went on in less than 10 minutes with a 15/16" wrench. Leveled the truck out under load and significantly reduced roll. Awesome bang for the buck. And etrailer service was spot on, as usual. 378049
