Question:
I have a 2017 Super Duty that pulls a 7000lb travel trailer. What would be better for my truck, Timbrens or Sumosprings? Thanks!

Helpful Expert Reply:
I recommend using the SumoSprings over the Timbren system for your 2017 Ford F-250 because we have received numerous feedback from our customers that the SumoSprings provide a much more comfortable ride and they work just as well.
For your application I recommend the part # SSR-127-54 if you only tow your 7K trailer occasionally or the Extra Heavy Duty # SSR-129-47-2 (2WD) or # SSR-128-47-2 (4WD) if you tow often enough that it is like a constant load.
Please note that any suspension enhancement is only intended to be used as a supplement to an OEM suspension and will not increase the weight rating of the vehicle.
