Improves suspension, handling and safety. Progressive spring rate. Provides additional support as needed so you always have a smooth, comfortable ride.by: Rich 04/04/2023
Working great. Settled the bounce down and boosted the trailer capacity. It also gave me a piece of mind of what would happen if I broke another spring like I did before I bought these. Functional and added safety.
by: Carl12/27/2023
It is extremely hard for me to give this product a high rating because I was unable to install them. After making measurements before ordering them to be sure that they would fit, I purchased to sets for my tandem axle trailer. When they arrived, I determined the number of spacers needed, and in preparation for installation, bolted the springs to the Spring-Under Axle Bracket. I jacked up the trailer, set the first bracket with spring attached in place only to find that the long U-bolt would only project through the bracket approximately 1/8 of an inch, an inadequate distance to attach it with the washer and locknut. A trip to several local vendors failed to turn up a 5/16” U-bolt of the same width but longer. While the SumoSprings seemingly would improve the ride of my trailer, I had to return them due to this one component. I think the manufacturer should include different length U-bolts just as they supply different length bolts for use with the number of spacers needed.

We’re all of their trailer need you just need to contact the Trailer. They stand behind their word 100%.

As advertised Sumo springs dampen rough road ride a lot less side to side motion also
by: Willis09/04/2021
I got 2 sets of these 5K-8k Sumo springs. I have Sumo springs on my tow vehicle and they are great. items states they fit any axle but would not fit my Dexter 8K axles. These are made for 1 3/4 inch springs and mine are 2 inch. called Super spring and they do not have a bracket for 2 inch springs. I was able to make them work by have a machine shop modify the brackets to fit 2 inch springs. they seem to be doing a good job on my trailer.

It sounds like you may need longer ubolts. The ubolts labeled “H” in the instructions.
by: Jim03/10/2022
Pretty easy install on my tandem axel fifth wheel. I did have to add four additional 1" spacers, one for each spring, to get the additional 1/2" lift desired. To do this I had to buy longer M8X80 mm bolts. I haven't towed it yet but I expect them to perform as promised.

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.
by: Justin (Five for the Journey on YouTube)04/09/2023
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: 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: 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: Cenvalleysteel11/04/2022
Very easy to install. The rough and uneven road and ride on our fifth wheel is vastly improved.

- Correct SumoSprings For 2021 Grand Design Solitude 380FL With Tandem 7000lb AxlesI would be happy to help! Since your 2021 Grand Design Solitude 380FL has tandem 7000lb axles you will need either the SumoSprings Trailer Helper Springs # SS26MV if your trailer has overslung leaf springs (leaf springs on top of the axles) or the # SS33HR if your trailer has underslung leaf springs (leaf springs underneath the axles). For your trailer you will need two kits, one for each axle. I included a video review of the products mentioned for you to take a look at.
view full answer... - Correct SumoSprings Trailer Helper Springs for 5,200 Lb AxlesThe correct SumoSprings Trailer Helper Springs for 5,200 lb axles is part # SS26MV for overslung or part # SS33HR for underslung. They are not designed to provide any lift but every trailer is different so it is possible on some occasions, it would be very minor if even at all.
view full answer... - Will the SumoSprings Trailer Helper Springs Stay In Contact With Frame of TrailerThe SumoSprings Trailer Helper Springs w/ Line Relocation Bracket # SS33HR are going to install onto your 2022 Grand Design compressed so they will have a little bit of space between the frame and the axle but this is normal.
view full answer... - Recommended Product to Improve Ride Quality of 11,000 lb Horse TrailerIf you're using the Andersen weight distribution hitch with the chains, it wouldn't work well with the Gen-Y # 325-GH-1024 ball mount you'd looked at as it would have more effect on the ride of the tow vehicle and minimal effect on the ride of the trailer itself. 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. To improve the ride of the trailer,...
view full answer... - How To Find the Correct SumoSprings Trailer Helper Springs for a TrailerIt's pretty easy to pick out the correct SumoSprings Trailer Helper Springs. There are only two things you need to know, the axle capacity and the spring orientation. The axle capacity is on the axle tag which is a sticker in the center of the beam and the spring orientation you can just tell by looking at the leaf springs. If the leaf springs are under the axle then you have underslung axles and if they are over the axle you have overslung. These two bits of info can then be used to select...
view full answer... - MORryde Suspension Kit, Shackle Straps & SumoSprings For 6k Axles w/ 35 WheelbaseI certainly don't blame you for wanting to get it right the first time, and the answer to each of your questions is yes, it will all work together, though there are a couple of things you'll want to be certain to verify. But first, for the equalizer upgrade and crossbeam, for your 35" wheelbase (which you measured correctly from center to center of your wheels) you do have the correct part for your 6k axles: - MORryde AllTrek 4000 Equalizers for Tandem Axle Trailers # MR29DR With that,...
view full answer... - Will SumoSprings Trailer Helper Springs for 5-8K Axles Work with Triple Axle TrailerYes, the SumoSprings Trailer Helper Springs for 5-8K Axles part # SS26MV for overslung or part # SS33HR for overslung will work on a triple axle trailer. You'll need one kit per axle for a total of three kits. There would be no difference between the single, tandem, or triple axle installs. These springs will do a great job of absorbing road shocks while makes for a smoother haul. They will also work to increase stability by reducing side to side sway. .
view full answer... - Correct SumoSprings Trailer Helper Springs for a Alliance Valor 42V13The correct SumoSprings Trailer Helper Springs for a Alliance Valor 42V13 is part # SS26MV if your leaf springs are over the axle or part # SS33HR if they are under. I don't know if you have underslung or overslung axles so you'll just need to take a quick peek under the trailer before ordering.
view full answer... - Sidewinder Pin Box for 2022 Wildwood Heritage Glen 5th Wheel The ST200 turret for the # 5AS16K has been discontinued. You may be able to find it still but I wasn't able to when I ran a quick search. At this time, the only Sidewinder we offer that fits the 1621 is the # RP34FR. Also, you aren't hearing from Reese because they're owned by First Brands now. Ever since this change the wait times on the phone are extremely long and many of their parts are gone or on indefinite backorder. The # RP34FR will help with clearance but it won't do anything...
view full answer... - How to Reduce Ford F-250 Jiggling From Grand Design Travel TrailerThere are a few different things you can do to help with this. It would also be helpful to know what kind of jiggling you're experiencing. Does it just feel bouncy and rough? Is it side to side motion? If your travel trailer weight is more than 50% of your trucks GVWR then it would be a good idea to use a weight distribution hitch which will level you out and reduce sway. If it is more like a rough ride then you could try an upgraded equalizer, shocks, or adding something like SumoSprings...
view full answer... - Will the SumoSprings Trailer Helper Springs Raise and Level 2022 Cougar 25RES The SumoSprings Trailer Helper Springs w/ Line Relocation Bracket - Single Axle - 5K to 8K - Underslung # SS33HR are designed to provide additional support for a more comfortable ride. Although they may raise your 2022 Cougar 25RES a little bit, it will not be the couple of inches you are looking for. These are not intended to be a lift kit, just to keep you at the normal height. These will, however, provide the shock absorption and sway control you are looking for. If you have already...
view full answer... - Recommended Sumo Springs for a 2022 Grand Design Reflection 5th WheelFor your 2022 Grand Design Reflection has overslung axle which means your springs sit over your axle, then you can use the SumoSprings Trailer Helper Springs w/ Line Relocation Bracket # SS26MV. If you have underslung axles meaning your springs sit under your axles, then you'd need the SumoSprings Trailer Helper Springs w/ Line Relocation Bracket # SS33HR instead. These springs will work with 5,000 to 8,000 lbs, tandem axles, and has a simple no drill install.
view full answer... - How Many SumoSpring Trailer Helper Springs Are Needed For A Tandem Axle Trailer Yes, SumoSprings come in kits per axle so two kits would be needed if you have a tandem axle trailer. To determine the correct kit for your trailer you'll need to know the axle capacity and whether or not your axles are overslung or underslung. If your leaf spring stack sits above your axle then you're overslung, and if your leaf spring stack sits below the axle you're underslung. The axle capacity can be found on the axle tag that should be stuck directly to the tube of the axle. If not...

- Parts Needed to Add Brakes and Suspension Enhancement to 3,500 lb Trailer AxleWe aren't able to help with an axle replacement as we don't have the dimension axle you need. But we can help with the axle you have now. To add brakes you just need to replace the hubs with hub/drums like the # AKHD-655-35-EZ-K and brake assemblies # AKEBRK-35-SA. This has the 6 bolt pattern you are wanting. Then to move the axles in relation to the leaf springs you'd just need the part # K71-384-00 and you'd be set. Then for suspension support you'd want the part # SS33HR and you'd be set.

- Can Weight Distribution System be Used with Air Bags on Tow VehicleThe Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution System # EQ37140ET does call for disabling or not using the air bags on the tow vehicle (2016 GMC Sierra 2500) but there are other weight distribution systems like the Strait-Line # RP66130 (with 2-5/16" Hitch Ball # C40030) which call for leveling the towing setup with the air bag kit first and then setting up the weight distribution system. Weight distribution will definitely help to keep your towing rig level and help prevent or reduce trailer sway,...
view full answer... - SumoSprings For 2017 Forest River XLR Thunderbolt Your 2017 Forest River XLR Thunderbolt should have 3 inch diameter axles, though I do recommend verifying that. If so, there are SumoSprings you can use, with the correct option simply depending on if your toy hauler's leaf springs are underneath the axle or over the axle. If you're not sure you can just take a look under your trailer and it will be easy to spot if the leaf springs are sitting over or under the axle beam. - Leaf Springs Underneath Axle: SumoSprings Trailer Helper Springs...

If they area instead under you'd want the part # SS33HR which is same capacity but designed for that configuration.

If they're above your leaf springs you'll need Item # SS33HR. SumoSprings use a system called progressive load control. The more weight you place on them the more they engage. This provides you with only the support you need when you need it. Since you are over 5,000 lbs you'll want to go with the higher rated...
view full answer... - How To Reduce Suspension Sag On Loaded Concession TrailerI do have an option for you, but a lift kit would not correct your trailer sitting lower on one side due to the weight balance favoring that side. Instead you'll need some suspension enhancement that will help to support your leaf springs to lessen suspension sag, but due to having that much weigh uneven you will always have some sag and there's just no way around that minus moving the weight around. The correct suspension enhancement will be based on axle capacity range and if your leaf...

view full answer... - Comparing SumoSprings and Shocks for Trailers with Tandem 8K AxlesI really like the SumoSprings Trailer Helper Springs, part # SS33HR for underslung or part # SS26MV for overslung axles. The springs do a great job of adding stability to the trailer by absorbing road bumps more as well as reducing sway. A good example of this is when you get passed by a semi and a large gust of wind hits the trailer. This would normally cause the trailer to rock side to side creating sway but with the springs, they will compress when the trailer leans to one side which...
view full answer... - Trailer SumoSprings For 9K ToyHaulerYour toy hauler likely has 6K rated axles, given the weights you've provided. If the capacity printed on each axle tag confirms this, the SumoSprings # SS33HR you'd looked at would be perfect for your toy hauler. The kit is designed for axle capacities from 5-8K on axles that have the leaf springs mounted under the axle tube, like yours. The # SS33HR kit includes 2 springs, so for a tandem axle trailer, you'll need 2 kits. I've linked to a product description video that you might find...
