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.
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.
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.

The sumo springs have been a very good addition to my Toyota Tacoma DCLB. I added a leaf and changed the shocks at the same time I added the sumo and the truck rides about a half inch above the sumo. I definitely can feel the sumo kick in when I compress the rear on bumps etc. non loaded. It’s not a bad thing but I don’t get the same travel but I also don’t slam on the bump stop. With that said, both driving with a loaded up truck and trailering has been much better than before. I can definitely tell the sumo doing its job. I towed a 4000lb boat the other day and the truck behaved perfectly.

2002 Toyota Tundra
After about a year of installing Sumo springs on my 2002 Tundra, I am still quite pleased. I have driven about 15K miles with them in and while pulling a 2 axle travel trailer with about 600 pounds of tongue weight with weight distributing hitch plus another 500+ pounds of stuff in the back of the truck. Much improved ride and handling. Cheap money well spent.

The massive ride feel improvement, I have a topper and drawers in the rear of my Tacoma. With the SumoSprings and medium-duty Old Man Emu leaf springs, the truck does not feel any hint of bucking or kicking anymore.

Easy to install. One easy hour and did not take tires off.

Comments
They do their job and loving it. Im able to put max load 1650 lbs on my Tacoma and there is very little sag. Only a small complaint that has to do with the ride when unloaded. I had lay with the adjustable stock absorberá for a while finally findings a suitable ride. With the SUMOs having no clearence between the frame and the springs when installed, they cause a bumpy ride unless the shocks react very fast to attenuate it.

2012 Toyota Tundra
Great product and arrived early. Did have to enlarge the holes on my stock base plates to accommodate the slightly larger u-bolts. Included instructions made the install very easy.
by: Raymond10/21/2021
Instructions were adequate. installer has to contribute to the outcome with bolt cleaning, match marking axle saddle and finding out "u" bolt torque value.
I think the mount should be radiused where the "u" bolt contacts it as opposed to the square edge. Was unnecessary to jack up truck to get clearance to screw on spring, I put a wood between frame and leaf and raised the box 1/2" with a wedge.
I got the ride height I was looking for, the blue springs are very close to offsetting trailer tounge weight allowing for a bit of takeup with my Andersen hitch.
Barely noticeable change in unloaded rear end stiffness.

Absolutely love these! Had them on my 2004 Toyota Tundra for a year now and have been extremely impressed of how the truck handles with and without heavy loads. Worth every penny.
Comments
They are working out great still after well over a year now. Love how I can carry heavy to extremely heavy loads without the truck sagging down and still rides like a Cadillac

2013 ToyotaTacoma
We installed these on our 2013 Toyota Tacoma in order to haul an in-bed camper across country and back. These SumoSprings were the perfect solution along with some new beefy AT tires to help support the weight of the camper and keep us moving with the right support and suspension we needed for the trip!
by: Preston08/22/2022
Very impressed. Stopped the Tacoma lean. Also helped with the trailer. I do use a distribution hitch I bought from etrailer. Just bought the sumo spring for other applications. Those little bitty factory bumps where junk. These help with lean, and off road hard bounce.They are great.
by: Randy06/08/2022
Made towing TT with my Toyota Tundra much better. My camper has a tongue weight over 900 pounds. Made bridge crossing and overpasses much smoother.
by: James 08/23/2022
Sumo lift springs work GREAT. Easy to install and work as advertised.
Thanks so much for support of the product.
by: Glenn D06/15/2022
The trailering capability of my truck is much better. In tandem with a weight distribution hitch, the 6000# trailer rides very predictably and stays exactly on track.

2013 ToyotaTacoma
I added these to my Tacoma. With the GFC camper, Solar panels, Marine battery and refrigerator in the back of the truck and the weight of the trailer tongue I gained over 2 inches of height in the back after adding the sumo springs. The body roll is much less now as well. The only dissappointment is not with etrailer or the Sumo Springs, it is with UPS. Initially they scheduled the delivery on Wednesday then changed it to Thursday. Thursday came in went and still didnt have it. Finally arrived on Friday. Thanks for the delay UPS.

Adds enough to beef up rear suspension on my 8 Ft Tundra Bed to keep it from over squatting towing 8000lb camper. Pleased with the results. However wish they didn’t contact the frame when there’s no load on the Truck. Definitely preforming as advertised!
by: JamesA04/30/2022
This product arrived quickly, was easy to install has worked great at firming up the back end of my rig, for pulling a small travel trailer. Very happy with the product and service.

Great product and easy to install on my Tacoma. Now able to tow my boat and RV with a more level ride and no more bottoming out! Buy these!

Great product ! Does all it claims and more than i expected. I leave my 5th wheel hitch mounted yr. round and haul bins of sand when I plow in the winter, so it's helping all the time. I can see and feel a difference in hauling our 30 ftr. Doesn't change the ride at all like just about anything else you'd need to do to get the help these give you. Easy install too!
Comments
Still goin strong. I’ve had numerous campers even a Tundra owner inquire about what I’ve done to level my truck for the load. It totally out does more springs! When and if they fatigue, I’ll buy em again.
Randy M - 03/12/2018by: Jeremy08/10/2021
Couldn’t decide between the blue and yellow springs, bought both and switch them out when I need to haul my 5500lb trailer. I have a friend with the same truck (tundra) and he got airbags. The ride in his truck is terrible when not loaded down. The yellow springs are great for towing and the blue give you a better ride, no sag when loaded down.

Ordering from etrailer was easy and efficient. Install of the Sumo spring helpers was easy and even though I have not pulled my trailer yet the ride without the trailer has been great. I am sure once I hook up to my trailer everything will be good.

2006 Toyota Tundra
Love these springs on my 06 Tundra. They definitely help with my camper, and reduce the sag. However! I noticed that when compressed, they are compressing at an angle...the springs are sitting at an angle, rather than compressing straight down. Best I can tell, I Have them installed straight up and down. Any tips?

Subaru Baja
Product was delivered and was a breeze to install! A friend happened to be around when I got started and we had them both installed in less than 20 minutes with the help of a car lift available to us. Didn't quite raise the bed of the truck as far as I hoped it would, but still a great product! Guess that's just the Baja Edition? But did find out I might need different shocks so that will be my next step soon.

Still working great and as expected!

See what our Experts say about this SuperSprings Intl Vehicle Suspension
- Option for SumoSprings on a 2016 Tundra with Aftermarket SuspensionFrom the weight capacities you listed, I suggest going with the SumoSprings # SSR-610-40. This will give you the needed support while not affecting the ride as much as a higher capacity option. I do have to mention, however, that all the suspension enhancement options we have currently available are designed to be used with stock suspension. It looks like the Falcon system on your 2016 Tundra did not lift the rear end of the vehicle, so as long as you have the space, it should fit without...
view full answer... - Leveling Trailer Side to SideWe don't offer anything that would be designed to 'even out' the side to side weight distribution. Attempting to do so wouldn't be a safe idea anyway, as the trailer wouldn't handle correctly when unloaded in that condition. What I'd recommend you do is place some heavy items on the other side of the trailer to even out the load in a side-to-side orientation. It's crucial that the side to side weight bias of a trailer be as close to equal as possible, otherwise you'll have tire and suspension...
view full answer... - Will the SumoSprings Rear Helper Springs Fit with a 2004 Toyota TacomaI called SuperSprings to confirm whether or not the SumoSprings Rear Helper Springs, part # SSR-610-40, would work with your 2004 Toyota Tacoma. They have only tested back to 2005, and so they cannot say yes or no. Still, I've linked to a video installation on a 2007 Tacoma that you may be able to reference. The good news is we do have a return policy if they do not fit. I've linked to it below. In that event, contact our customer service department and they will help you from there.

view full answer... - Is It OK For Super Springs SumoSprings to Touch Frame of 2005 Toyota Tacoma when Truck is UnloadedTypically, you do want a bit of space between the spring and the truck frame when the truck is unloaded. However, if your Super Springs SumoSpings # SSR-610-40 touch the frame of your 2005 Toyota Tacoma when it is unloaded it will be okay. The only thing you may notice is a bit stiffer of a ride since the springs will engage more quickly once the truck is loaded. From the install photos taken when we installed these springs on a 2007 Tacoma, it appears that truck had very little to no...

view full answer... - Will Sumo Springs for Toyota Tundra Slide Off Bumper StopsI spoke with my contact at Super Springs and she said the SumoSprings Custom Helper Springs Kit # SSR-610-40, which you referenced, are designed to replace the factory bump stops. The springs are bolted to a mounting bracket held down by Ubolts so they are very secure. Additionally, when you have a load on the springs they will be compressed. So no, the springs will not slide off when going down the road with a load. I have included a link to the installation details for you to check out...
view full answer... - Would the SumoSprings part # SSR-610-4 Interfere with Fifth Wheel Hitch on 2014 Toyota TundraThe SumoSprings part # SSR-610-40 that you referenced SHOULDN'T interfere with the Pullrite 3100 Superglide fifth wheel hitch since this product just replaces the bump stops of your 2014 Toyota Tundra. In general suspension enhancements like this do not interfere with fifth wheel hitches. But check out the installation instructions and picture I attached and compare how this product installs to the install brackets of your fifth wheel hitch to be 100 percent certain.
view full answer... - What is the Torque Spec of the Factory U-Bolts on a 2010 Toyota TacomaIn order to obtain the specifications as to how many foot pounds of torque needs to be applied to the factory u-bolts, you would need to obtain your VIN and contact the manufacturer. Another option you have would be to contact your local repair shop who has access to a program called, "ALLDATA". Unfortunately, these are the only options I have for you to determine the correct torque spec for the factory u-bolts on your 2010 Toyota Tacoma.
view full answer... - 2016 Toyota Tacoma Suspension Enhancement RecommendationThe SumoSpring part # SSR-610-40 that you referenced have been confirmed as a fit for your 2016 Toyota Tacoma so I would recommend them for you. These are nice because unlike air springs they do not require you to maintain air pressure in the bags at all. These would not affect the warranty of your truck either. When you install an aftermarket part on your vehicle you are protected by the Magnuson–Moss Warranty Act. This act states, in part, that unless the installation and the part...

This will be a great product to provide you with additional rear suspension support. SumoSprings will not increase your vehicle's weight-carrying capacity. Do not exceed the manufacturer's weight limit for your vehicle.
view full answer... - Height of SumoSprings Campatible with 2008 Toyota Tacoma PreRunnerThe Super Springs SumoSprings Custom Helper Springs # SSR-610-40 are confirmed to fit on your 2008 Toyota Tacoma. They will install in place of the existing factory bump stops and measure 6 inches tall. There should be some space (approximately up to an inch usually) between the helper springs and the frame when they're installed so they will not raise your truck. I've attached a video of the springs being installed on a 2007 Tacoma for you to see.

These are confirmed to fit your Tundra and will replace the axle bump stops on the frame. They work by providing additional support to your suspension when under load that will increase...
view full answer... - How Much Clearance Between SumoSprings # SSR-610-40 and Frame on an Unloaded 2015 Toyota TundraIt's going to vary some from vehicle to vehicle just because of how your truck rides. However, I reached out to SuperSprings and they told me that a half inch to an inch of clearance between the spring and the frame is fairly standard. The SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs # SSR-610-40 including the brackets are 6 inches tall. So if you need to determine exactly how much space will be between the spring and the frame of your Tundra you can always measure.

These give you the best of both worlds as far as support and ride quality. The Timbrens do a great job with the support side but they are notorious for having a slightly rougher ride quality unloaded than the rest.
view full answer... - Recommendation to Relieve Pressure on Weight Distribution SystemAdding a suspension enhancement system like the SumoSprings # SSR-610-40 that you referenced might help to relieve some of the pressure you are having to put on your weight distribution system, but the actual benefits will be pretty minimal. This is essentially because your properly rated WD system won't really allow the springs to even engage too much, since the system is already distributing your tongue weight to the truck and trailer.

view full answer... - Which SumoSpring Kit for 2017 Toyota TundraI'd go with the lighter duty SumoSprings for your 2017 Toyota Tundra for the reason you mentioned. The heavier duty ones will be much harsher. I only recommend the higher duty ones for people who plan to be at the capacity of their vehicle most of the time when travelling. The part # SSR-610-40 would be the better option. You'll most likely have to use lower spring bar tension with your weight distribution system as well.
