Question:

I am the owner of a 2015 Ram 3500HD, 4WD regular cab pick up with the Cummins 6.7 diesel engine. I experience more body roll on curves, and deep front bounce going over sharp bumps think speed bumps than I like. I am considering adding a jounce spring to counteract this. I would like them to engage almost immediately to stiffen the roll resistance. I see your rubber springs from Timbren are available in standard height, +1.5inch and +2inch and have a lifetime warranty. They also come in a 3000 lb and 11000 lb rating. Similar springs from Firestone are adjustable but made of urethane and only carry a 2 year warranty. Sumo also has a 2 year warranty urethane spring. Which would best achieve the desired goal and represent the best long term value?

For the body roll the best solution for the rear suspension will be the part # SSA23 as it is designed specifically for fighting body roll and providing rear suspension support.

The Timbrens would be the way to go for the front suspension. I would go with the 3,000 lb part # TDF25004B though as the 11k Timbrens will give you a harsh ride. These will engage after an inch of suspension travel. You wouldn't want them engaged all the time as that would also give you a harsh ride quality.
