Best Way to Eliminate Suspension Sag on a 2015 Ram 2500

Updated 06/10/2015 | Published 06/09/2015

Question:

Ive looked at your super Springs and Trenden suspension helper springs. I have a 2015 Ram 2500 short bed with rear coil springs and loaded with a camper. It pushes the rear springs down a few inches so the truck is pointing slightly up in the front. These two products look like they might level my truck out and improve my load distribution. Do you have any recomendations.

It sounds like you could be either towing a camper trailer or have a camper installed in the bed of your truck. I will give you the best solution for either situation.

For sag from the weight of a trailer there is a better system than suspension enhancement that I would recommend for your 2015 Ram 2500. You would be much better off with a weight distribution system as instead of just providing suspension support it would distribute the tongue weight of the trailer up to the front axle of the tow vehicle so that your braking and handling would be improved.

The best way to pick out a weight distribution system is to base it off of the loaded tongue weight of the setup when it is loaded and ready to tow. This figure also includes the weight of any cargo behind the rear axle of the tow vehicle. I attached a help article on determining tongue weight for you to check out as well. You will want the loaded tongue weight of your setup to fall right in the middle of the tongue weight range of the system you use.

Once you know your tongue weight check out the link I attached that has all of the systems we carry. You will want to select your tongue weight from the filters on the page and the correct rated system would be listed.

If the sag was from the weight of a camper in the bed of your truck the SumoSprings part # SSR-302-47 would be the correct system to get. These systems can be used for towing applications, but they aren't ideal.
