Rear Suspension Enhancement Compatible with 2006 Honda Ridgeline RTL

Question

Question:

Ok, great! Thanks allot for the quick response. Now, could you tell me if this part will have the same benefits as the air lift 1000? Basically, just looking to keep the rear end of my Ridgeline a bit more stable and even with the front. I tow a travel trailer/camper with it and I do have a proper weight distribution hitch in the Ridge. Would just like some added security. Please let me know.

There is currently only one suspension enhancement option we carry that is compatible with your 2006 Honda Ridgeline RTL. Unfortunately the Air Lift Helper Springs are not compatible. What you can use to enhance your ride is use the Coil SumoSprings Custom Helper Springs for Coil Spring Suspension - Rear Axle # CSS-1168R. This will integrate into your current factory coil springs to give them additional support. They are a custom fit for your vehicle and require no maintenance.

I've attached a video as well as a photo to assist.

The SuperSprings Helper Springs will not have all of the same features and benefits of an air bag system, as they are not adjustable. They will however, help to support the rear of your truck to keep it level so your headlights aren't pointed to the sky when towing. This support as well as your weight distribution system will work together well to give you the stability and security you desire.

I spoke with Super Springs about the Coil SumoSprings Custom Helper Springs part #CSS-1168R for your 2016 Ford Expedition. The issue is not that it is not a fit but rather they have not yet had a 2WD model in to test them on. Therefore, in order to…

Since the pin weight of your camper is 2.1k, I recommend going with the LoadLifter 5000 opposed to the 7500. While technically there is not reason you couldn't use the 7500 kit, it really is not necessary for a camper like yours. Generally the…

You can use leaf springs that are rated higher than the axle without any issues as long as they measure the correct measurement for your trailer. For example the 6-leaf double eye spring for 7,000 lb axles part #e64SR measures 24-7/8" eye to…
