How To Determine The Correct Capacity SumoSpring For A 2022 Ford F-250
Question:
Ford 2022 F250. Does the capacity rating of the sumo springs reflect the added support capacity on the suspension or should the capacity rating match the anticipated load without considering the existing suspension?

Expert Reply:
Suspension enhancements don't increase the capacity of the suspension and are typically chosen based on the load that the truck will be handling. Too high of a capacity tends to give you a rough ride quality when unloaded because the enhancement is too stiff. Too low of a capacity and you'll have sag, uneven wear on your suspension, and bad handling. SumoSprings offer a much softer progression so they're one of the best options to handle the load and still give you a good unloaded ride quality.
For example if you planned on hauling up to 2,800lbs the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs # SSR-127-54 would be right choice since they have a 2,800lb capacity to help support load to keep the suspension from sagging.
