Question:
Question on Timeren / Sumosprings loading. If I have an ATV in bed of truck 2000 lbs then a 1500 lb capacity spring would bottom out and be useless? If I have a 6000 lb RV with tongue weight of 1000 lbs it would not bottom out and would support the RV application? Thanks

Hello Ron, thanks for reaching out. A 1,500 lb Timbren or SumoSpring would not be enough to support a 2,000 lb ATV in the bed. You would be overloading the springs and would not get the results you want.
A really good option for that are the SumoSprings Rebel Custom Helper Springs # SS95QR. These are 3,000 lb capacity which is enough for your ATV. Plus they have a 2-piece design so they don't create a rough ride when you aren't loaded down.
The Timbren # TFR1504E would also work for your application. They are 6,000 lb rated so they will do a great job supporting the ATV, but they will make the ride quite a bit more rough when you are unloaded. The SupoSprings are definitely what I recommend.
