Question:
I have a 2022 Forester LE 2351. I would like to add Sumo shocks to the vehicle to continue to firm up the sway issue. I have already added sway bars, front and rear, and added a Safe T Plus steering control. Could you advise if I should buy the helper or Solo Custom springs? Also, do you think I would get more benefit from the Sumo springs or upgrading the shocks to Bilstein? Thanks,

Hey Carol. I would get the Helper for the rear and the Solo for the front. For your 2022 Forester LE 2351 Ford, I recommend the SumoSprings Maxim Custom Helper Springs item # SSR-106-47-1 for the rear end and the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs item # SSF-106-47 for the front axle.
The Maxim Custom Helper Springs item # SSR-106-47-1 have a 5,000 lbs capacity. They're not only going to help with sway by firming up your rear end. They're also going to help absorb bumps and road shock.
The Solo Custom Helper Springs item # SSF-106-47 will give you 1,000 lbs of support to your front suspension, provide a smoother ride, that also helps minimize sway.
We do not carry Bilstein shocks so I can not speak to their effectiveness in addressing sway. If you have any additional questions, go ahead and throw them into the comment box below and I'll be happy to answer them.
