Features:
Specs:
Note: The front struts should be installed by a qualified installer or technician. Spring compressor (not included) required for installation.
Most trucks leave the factory with a nose-down stance to help offset the sag that happens when you add weight to the back of the truck. A leveling kit raises the front of a truck to match its rear, improving the overall look while allowing for large tires. However, once you hook up your camper or haul home a new fridge, you end up losing your level stance. This kit will keep your truck level even when you tow or haul heavy loads.
These front struts are pre-tuned to provide a better ride than factory struts, especially on gravel and uneven roads. Plus, they enhance overall safety by improving handling and stability. And since they are already tuned, you don't have to worry about any maintenance once they are installed.
When you add weight to the back of your truck, there is less weight on your front axle which can cause problems with steering and braking. The rear SumoSprings provide progressive load control, so the more weight you add, the stiffer they become. This ensures your front tires make better contact with the road to improve overall handling. With a lighter load, the springs compress easily for soft engagement and a less bumpy ride. They can also compress as much as 80 percent to support a heavy load and help your factory suspension handle the weight. Also, if you have a load that's off center, the springs will keep your truck balanced and prevent body roll if you make a sharp turn.

Hi everybody, Andy here with etrailer.com And today we're gonna take a look at this SumoSpring suspension leveling kit. Now this is a custom fit part that is designed to fit the 2015 and newer Ford F-150 four-wheel drive. To confirm that this kit is going to work for your vehicle, take advantage of our vehicle fit guide here at etrailer.com. Input the year, make, and model of your vehicle, and our fit guide will let you know if this kit will work for you or if we have something comparable that will work for you. This shock absorber and helper spring kit is going to upgrade your F-150's overall suspension for improved driver control and comfort. The combination of front shocks and rear helper springs will keep your F-150 level loaded or unloaded, and help to absorb bumps and shocks while maintaining sway and sag.
These pre-tuned twin-tube OEM replacement JBS shocks include removable two-inch lift spacers. And these included two-inch lift spacers are going to help your front tires maintain contact with the road when you are hauling a load of such as firewood or towing your travel trailer. These lifts will also let you increase your tire size up to 33 inches. If you prefer to maintain your factory ride height that's fine, just remove the lift spacers and you are good to go. The shocks are constructed of steel.
And the aluminum spacers are rust-resistant. Now towing or hauling a heavy load can cause rear sag, as your factory suspension compresses under the weight of that load. This means that the rear axle is trying to support, not only the extra load, but also the weight of your vehicle. And because there is less weight on your front axle, your front tires make less contact with the road, which causes problems with traction, steering, and braking. SumoSprings upgrade your vehicle's factory suspension to level your vehicle, improving your drive performance and keeping your ride comfortable.
SumoSprings provide progressive load control, meaning the more you load them, the stiffer they become. And with a lighter load the springs will compress easily for soft engagement and a less bumpy ride. The closed-cell urethane material allows for smooth contact between the springs and your vehicle. And the springs act like a shock absorber to dampen road vibration. Now these springs can also compress by as much as 80% to support a heavy rear load, to help your factory suspension bear up under the load.
And this evens out the weight which levels your vehicle and ensures that your front tires are making better contact with the road. A level ride means that you have improved driving control and that's also going to ensure safe headlight aim and maintain or rather minimize, help minimize sway. Now these springs also support your factory suspension, which helps prevent sagging and reduce bottoming out. These springs work independently from one another to support each side of your vehicle. This action helps to reduce body roll when you make a sharp turn. This also is going to help compensate for an off-center load. These microcellular urethane springs are tough. They are going to resist abrasion, oil, salt, and UV rays that can more quickly wear out other springs. And they perform well in temperatures ranging from negative 25 degrees Fahrenheit all the way up to 200 degrees Fahrenheit. SumoSprings compressed vertically with minimum expansion to the sides so they won't be damaged by nearby mechanical parts and they fit safely into tighter spots. And unlike other air springs, SumoSprings require no maintenance or adjustment. So the helper springs are custom designed to fit your F-150 and they're going to install easily. No drilling is required. And you are going to get instructions to walk you through step by step on how to install this kit. And so if you're looking for a suspension leveling kit that's going to improve the overall suspension of your F-150, this might be a good kit for you to consider. Well, that's gonna conclude our look today. I do hope that it was helpful for you. Again, my name is Andy. Thank you for joining me.
