Will SumoSprings Rebel Custom Helper Springs Fit 2000 Ford F-350 With Gooseneck/5th Wheel Hitch

Question

Question:

How will the SSR-101-40-2 installation be if I plan on also getting a bandw gooseneck hitch on my 2000 f350. Have seen both and it looks like that gooseneck hitch will cover the slots in the frame used for the sumo springs?

Hi Paul, welcome back! That is correct. The SumoSprings Rebel Custom Helper Springs # SSR-101-40-2 will not fit with the gooseneck hitch or a 5th wheel hitch because of where they install. I would stick with # HE22XR we previously talked about.

Since the pin weight of your camper is 2.1k, I recommend going with the LoadLifter 5000 opposed to the 7500. While technically there is not reason you couldn't use the 7500 kit, it really is not necessary for a camper like yours. Generally the…
