Products Featured in This Question
Question:
Thank you Jameson. I’m not very concerned about unloaded ride as the truck is used 95 percent of the time for towing. So which do you think would provide the best loaded ride as well as increasing stability?

Expert Reply:
Since you really want a good ride quality the SumoSpring Solo # SSR-312-54 is the way to go. This will give you the support you are wanting without making the ride quality harsh like the Timbrens do. Timbrens provide a lot of support but the ride quality (specifically unloaded) isn't great. The SumoSpring option is a much better balance between support and ride quality so it's what you'll be the most happy with.
