Hey Ed! Yes, if you want the Timbren SES # TTORTUN4L to have a smaller gap and engage sooner, or be engaged all the time, you can add the Spacer Kit for Timbren Suspension Enhancement System # T93AV.

Is this for hauling your commercial mower and utility trailer?

I put this kit on a 2019 Nissan Frontier. Installation took about an hour. It has greatly improved the truck's overall towing ability. The back of the vehicle does not drop much at all, and even with a 5,000 pound load connected to the hitch. I could drive 20 miles per hour faster it I wanted to, because the front tires have better contact with the road due to the package. Without a trailer or a load in the bed, the rear suspension is tighter, but not rough riding. I'm happy with the purchase. I added better shocks and brakes to the truck, too, but this kit made the most improvement overall with my towing and carrying extra weight.
