Very easy to install plan taking big trip in a few months can’t wait to see how they handle. Update to follow.
by: Philip H01/05/2024
Only 4 stars since I have only used them on one RV trip so far. I installed these in conjunction with an equalizer upgrade (Morryde SRE 4000) on my 2019 Grand Design Reflection TT. For the one trip I have been on, I liked how these helped cushion the ride of the trailer. I would certainly buy them again.

2020 Cyclone 3 axle toy hauler. Can definitely tell a big difference in how quick the trailer settles down over large bumps like bridge transitions. Things inside seem to travel better.
by: Rod05/09/2023
My toy hauler when loaded maxes out the 2 8000# axels. These Sumo Springs stop the over travel of the suspension and stops the spring sag that these trailers are noted for. The ride is more under control and there is less effect on the contents.
by: John 11/20/2022
We have a Grand Design Reflection 5th wheel with the refridgerator on the rear wall, and we kept having issues with the fridge doors coming open during bumpy travel, so we installed the Sumo Springs based on a number of other reviews that indicated it would restrict the trailers bouncing. Total success, we have not had the doors open since the install, and generally feel less bouncing as we travel. The trailer also has less bounce when stationary, an added benefit.

No problems at all, everything I said in first review remains, the refrigerator doors stay closed, despite some very bumpy roads, and we travel about 6 month each year in 5th wheel!

@John We're happy to hear that, thank you for checking back in!

We purchased these SumoSprings for our 2019 Heartland Fuel 250 knowing that they would not fit our leaf spring top plates, but I knew I could modify the mounting bracket to accommodate our RV. For anyone who has Dexter axles with shocks, you most likely have a 5-1/2” wide leaf spring top plate. If you are handy and have an acetylene torch or map gas you can simply heat and bend the inside bracket, drill a 1/2” hole and through bolt it to an existing hole in the top plate. I actually think this is a more secure install. Overall, it would be nice if there was an exact fit for our Rv, but it was an easy fix. Great product.
by: Steven 03/27/2024
Delivered on time and all the parts were there! They were easy to install and give the leaf springs the leaf springs the help they needed. Our camper has less felt recoil on bumps and pot holes which makes for an easier day traveling.
by: Larry 02/12/2024
Easy to install only a couple hours for both axles. A more stable ride and haven’t broke any leaf springs on these great American highways, by the way I installed them on a 38’ 5th wheel rv.
by: Gary12/15/2022
etrailer provides quality products you can trust. Sumo springs made a big difference in the ride quality of my fifth wheel going down the road. It helped with chucking and takes some of the roughness out of the roads. Items in the cupboards are still a mess when we get to our destination, but less of a mess. Highly recommend!!
by: Silva01/22/2023
Installed on 2022 Jayco NorthPoint 310RLTS. Took them on their maiden voyage east on 138, south on 15 and 215 into Santee Lakes, Ca. Appears they have mitigated some of the rebound caused by springs, however don't expect it to eliminate all. There was still at times significant "bouncing" when transitioning bridge gaps or wonderful LA / San Bernardino Freeways.
Having had Timbren springs on my last truck and really enjoying the support, wondering now if I should have gone with them?
Bottom line, they WORK, just less than I would of expected. But then again, my expectations might have been too high.
by: Cenvalleysteel11/04/2022
Very easy to install. The rough and uneven road and ride on our fifth wheel is vastly improved.

The SumoSprings work great made my trailer roll smoother down the road
by: Lynn10/19/2023
The springs do work I'm not sure how much they help. I take a trip across the USA every year. (10K miles) The roads are rough. I might be expecting too much, still have cabinet doors come open. I do feel they support the suspension.
by: Dan 11/14/2023
A must have for additional support for the leaf springs and makes the towing experience much smoother
by: Christopher09/07/2023
I bought these believing I needed them for the leaf springs. I had set them aside so I could return them. Naturally, I forgot about them and a year later I contact the company and they tell me they won’t return them and suggest I sell them on social media. I have bought two leaf spring kits and due to my recent interactions I will never buy another set or recommend them to anyone. Very disappointed.
by: Matt 12/18/2023
Installing the products went about as well as hoped. The hardest parts were keeping them on the desired location on the springs.
by: Timothy 10/20/2023
Installation was very simple. I didn't need to relocate a gas line which made the job even easier. It took me longer to crawl under the trailer than it took to install them. I have not towed yet, but I'm confident they will make a huge improvement on the trip from Michigan to Texas.
by: Dale 09/07/2023
If you own a camper, and you are planning on towing it on the crappy roads in America, you need these springs to cushion the ride and protect your investment. Install is fairly simple and straight forward. Just take your time and don't rush it.
by: Steve05/23/2022
So far so good. Easy install. Used trailer jacks to give me the 1/2-1” of lift required to install these. Definitely feel the difference in stability/lean when going around corners and hitting bumps. Will be putting a few thousand miles on this summer and these will provide some peace of mind knowing the suspension system isn’t taking as bad of a beating. A little pricey for rubber springs especially since I need four, but sometimes peace of mind comes at a price.

I love my SumoSprings they work and they were easy to put on

They came scratched up and worn like they’ve already been used…
by: Chip 09/07/2023
Only used them for one trip
ended up installing larger slipper spring set up
by: Andy04/22/2023
Sumospring are the best solution for fifth wheel and highly recommended, it's help to reduce bouncing on leafspring and save the water tanks won't cracks or failure due to bad highway conditions and keep the trailer level when you make right or left turn, I really happy with it, amazing every fifth wheel owner should have.
by: Larry 10/09/2023
Couldn't believe the difference in the ride of the trailer. I would highly recommend this product

- SumoSpring Kit that Can Fit 2021 Forest River Stealth RQ2715There are two options for SumoSprings for your 2021 Forest River Stealth RQ2715 based on your axle setup. The part # SS26MV is for if you have an overslung axle setup (leaf spring over the axle) or the part # SS33HR for if you have an underslung axle setup.
view full answer... - Recommended SumoSprings for Trailer With 5,200 Pound AxlesThe # SS26MV for 5k to 8k axles and # TSS-107-40 for 3k to 5k axles are the same size and have the same installation requirements. The only difference between the two is the capacity. The # TSS-107-40 has a 500 lb capacity while the # SS26MV has a 900 lb capacity. Since you're moving to a larger axle and run your trailer heavy, I would choose the SumoSprings with the higher capacity. Keep in mind, adding an axle with a higher capacity and these SumoSprings will not increase the overall...
view full answer... - How Many SumoSprings Helper Spring Kits for Triple Axle Grand DesignYes, since the SumoSprings kit part # SS26MV is a single axle kit you'd need a quantity of 3 for a triple axle trailer like your Grand Design Momentum 381.
view full answer... - Will the SumoSprings Trailer Helper Springs Work With Lippert Center Point Trailair Air-RideThe SumoSprings Trailer Helper Springs part # SS26MV mount on top of the leaf springs directly above the axle so there should be no interference with the Lippert Center Point by Trailair Air-Ride Suspension Upgrade.
view full answer... - Does SumoSprings Trailer Helper Spring Kit SS26MV Work on 7k Trailer AxlesYes, the SumoSprings Trailer Helper Springs w/ Line Relocation Bracket # SS26MV is the correct kit for your tandem axle trailer that has 7k axles. This kit is correct for axle capacities between 5k and 8k so it is correct for your 7k axle. This kit is for a single axle so you'd need a quantity of two.

Based on that it looks like you have the part # LC279688. Based on that the best recommendation I can make to replace them would be the EZ Flex part # K71-653-00 which has same capacity and dimensions but is known to be more reliable than other options. We don't have air bag kits that fit your trailer but we do have suspension enhancement kits that would fit like the SumoSprings part # SS26MV which...

- Will SumoSprings Trailer Helper Springs Add Height to 5th WheelI have reached out to the manufacturer, SuperSprings, regarding a possible increase in ride height of the SumoSprings Trailer Helper Springs w/ Line Relocation Bracket - Single Axle - 5K to 8K - Overslung # SS26MV. They were unable to give me any type of exact number in regards to an increase in ride height; they said it likely won't give any amount of actual lift to the ride height. Essentially what the SumoSprings # SS26MV do is keep your rig at the same height when they engage due to...
view full answer... - How To Measure Leaf Springs on a 2015 Grand Design Reflection 308BHTS For Additional StabilityThe leaf springs on your 2015 Grand Design Reflection 308BHTS are going to be 1-3/4" wide, as this is the size used on double eye leaf springs. I wouldn't get to caught up in the amount of leaves your spring has as you can switch to a different amount of leaves if you are replacing them all. To measure the length from center eye to center eye you do not want to have any weight compressing the spring. I find the easiest way to measure is along the radius of the spring from center of bolt...
view full answer... - SumoSprings Kit that Fits 2020 Grand Design 303rls ReflectionI looked up the GVWR of you 2020 Grand Design 303rls Reflection and based on that the SumoSprings kit you'd want is the part # SS26MV which matches your axle capacity and configuration as it's for 5k to 8k overslung axles.
view full answer... - Compatibility of SumoSprings SS26MV With 5th Wheel w/ 7K AxlesIf your 7K axles have overslung leaf springs (sits atop the axle), the SumoSprings TSS-107-47 which we sell as part # SS26MV would for well for you. The kit includes a line relocation kit in case there's a wiring harness, water or gas line in the way that would interfere with the installation. The springs are rated for 5-8K, so they'll work great with your 7K axles. The kit includes spacers to achieve the desired 1/4-1/2 inch preload, and if they're a bit too tall, the springs can be...
view full answer... - SumoSprings Trailer Suspension Enhancement Kit that Fits 2023 Grand Design Solitude S-Class 3740BHThe SumoSprings Trailer Helper Springs part # SS26MV is the correct kit for your 2023 Grand Design Solitude S-Class 3740H that has overslung axles like you described and will do a great job giving you additional suspension support but it will not effectively increase the weight capacity since that's based on more than just the suspension. It also is based on the axle capacity, brake capacity, frame, coupler etc. So just increasing the suspension capacity would not increase the overall capacity.
view full answer... - Diameter of SS26MV SumoSprings Trailer Helper Springs The portion of the # SS26MV SumoSprings that contact the axle is 4 inches in diameter, with the other end with the bracket being 3-1/2 inches in diameter. The spring is 5 inches tall. How you relocate the gas line you speak of will depend on if it's a flexible or a rigid gas line. If it's flexible, you can remove the clamps that fasten the line to the trailer frame in a several foot length until you can gain enough flexibility to relocate the gas line. If it's a rigid line, you'll be best...

Do be sure to order a kit for each axle. For the spring plate it may be best to get all new plates and U-bolts # CE23003 for each axle. This hardware is coated to help prevent corrosion unlike the factory parts which are usually painted steel. If your hardware is still in good shape you will most likely want to just grind...

Since your Grand Design has a GVWR of 11,900 lbs and two axles, you'd need to use two kits.

The exact amount of clearance needed isn't stated but using the relocation kit you should have no problem with clearance.

- Sumosprings Trailer Helper Springs For a 2020 Forest River Stealth 2916G Travel Trailer Toy HaulerIt appears the SumoSprings Trailer Helper Springs w/ Line Relocation Bracket # SS26MV is the correct kit for your 2020 Forest River Stealth 2916G toy hauler travel trailer. This kit is for a single overslung(axle below leaf springs) axle you will need 2 of them for both axles. You will need to verify that the U-bolt plate on your Stealth is no more than 5-1/2" wide or 3/4" thick for the bracket to mount on your trailer.

However, we do have another option as well. The Lippert Bolt-On Shock Kit w/ Heavy Duty Gas Shocks - 5,200-lb to 7,000-lb (3") Overslung Axle # LC281281 will absorb road shock and vibration and will end up being less bouncy than either other option.

Plus, Andersen couldn't say if their weight distribution system was compatible with the Gen-Y hitch as they haven't been tested together. I'd concentrate on the suspension of the trailer itself.

Ok it’s been a year and I have to say this product is definitely worth the investment. After taking it on a month long journey from Oklahoma to California I noticed improved handling especially along winding narrow roads. The trailer tracked well and I noticed less jolting. I also noticed the body roll diminished when in high winds or being passed by bigger trucks. Great product definitely recommend if you do allot of long hauls.
