Question:

2017 Ford E-450 with a Forest River Forester 3011DS unit. It has firestone air bags on the rear now. Can I also install the Timbren helper springs, it looks like nothing is in the way. Is Timbren the only option or does sumo also make one for the E-450

Expert Reply:

Since you have the Firestone Ride Rite kit part # F2153 installed on your 2017 Forest River Forester 3011DS built on a Ford E-450 chassis the only suspension kit that would fit with it would be the Timbren part # TFERSDLB. The SumoSpring kits that fit your RV would install in same place as your air bags.

You should note that typically a second suspension enhancement is not needed or recommended. If you are maxing out your air bags and still not happy with support a rear sway bar might be what you are looking for instead to improve handling and stability. Which for that you'd need the # RM-1139-176.
