Will Adding SumoSpring Rear Helper Springs Create a Bouncier Ride on Unloaded 2014 Ford F-150
Published 11/03/2016 >
Question:
Any experience with ride quality when driving unloaded/no trailer connected? Still stock or do the sumos make contact with the axle at all times and change the ride experience? 2014 F150 XLT screw 4x4

If you take a look at the instructions I have linked for SumoSprings # SSR-117-40 you will see that, when unloaded, the springs make little to no contact with the rear axle on a 2014 Ford F-150. If may seem a little more stiff when going over bumps. So it will have a small effect on the unloaded ride quality.
