Question:

I was looking at adding SSR-203-40-2 to my 2021 Silverado 2500HD as was suggested. I see in the description the mention this product works in temperatures from -25 F to 200 F. I am in Canada and we do get temperatures below -25 F 10 to 15 times throughout the winter. What is the impact on this product below -25 F and how would it behave in those low temperatures? Base on my circumstances, would it maybe be suggested to consider a different product?

Expert Reply:

The SumoSprings Rebel Custom Helper Springs are only rated to -25 degrees Fahrenheit so if you'll be using the truck in temperatures below this then you may have to consider other options like the Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System. The SumoSprings could become brittle in temperatures below -25 degrees Fahrenheit so if this is a concern I recommend the Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System which can handle much lower though an official rating is not provided.

The correct Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System for a 2021 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 is part # TGMRCK25D.
