Comparing Timbren and SumoSprings For a 2021 Toyota Tundra

Question

Question:

I want to install some suspension enhancement on my 2021 Tundra and am looking at the Timbren and Sumosprings options. There seems to be a pretty big difference in what weight they are rated for, so which would you recommend?

You are correct that the 7,000lb rating of the Timbren Helper Springs # T62FR and 2,800lb rating of the SumoSprings # SSR-610-54 is pretty different.

For your 2021 Toyota Tundra I recommend going with the # SSR-610-54 as they are made out of a softer material so when you are driving the truck unloaded you will not have a stiff and bouncy ride like the Timbrens are notorious for.

With that said the 2,800lb rating of the SumoSprings is actually higher than the payload rating of your truck by nearly 1,000lbs so it will add plenty of support no matter if you are just carrying cargo or towing a trailer.

I included videos of the products mentioned for you to take a look at.
