Can SumoSpring Kit Install on 2001 Ford F-250 with Sagging Suspension

Updated 11/07/2022 | Published 11/05/2022

Question:

I have put 227,000 miles on my 01 F250 Super Duty 4x4. The springs are showing it with some sagging. I wish to restore ride height and enhance the suspension for occaisionally towing a 7,000 travel trailer 750 lb, tongue weight and 350-400 lb four-wheeler. Can I do this with Sumo Springs alone? I do not want to compromise ride quality. I am changing out my rear axle. If I need to augment the factory spring pack, this is the time to do it as the axle U-bolts must be replaced if removed. I trust etrailer.com for the correct answer! Thanks for whatever insight you can provide.

For your 2001 Ford F-250 the SumoSprings Solo kit part # SSR-114-47 is a confirmed fit and would do a great job providing the factory suspension with additional support...but you really need the suspension of your truck functioning properly and kits like these can not compensate for
