Question:

Hi I’m towing my travel trailer that is 7264lbs 34 ft long, I have a weight distribution hitch installed and is performing pretty good, I need to know if I buy the referenced bump stop will help with the towing performance or is not needed. Thanks

I'll start out by saying that we do have a solution for your 2018 Ford F-150 Raptor, but the # TDR1500DQ is designed to fit on Ram trucks, so they won't be the correct solution for you. Additionally, there is not a Timbren system that is recommended for use with occasional towing and hauling.

For your 2018 F-150 Raptor, I recommend using the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs # SS52GR, which are perfect for occasional towing and hauling. Adding the SumoSprings will help your towing experiencing by fighting body roll, providing enhanced stability and absorbing road shock, plus they're going to take the added stress off your stock suspension and help prolong their life. Because these springs have progressive load control, they will get stiffer as the load on them increases, which will ultimately help maintain your factory ride quality when unloaded.
