Whether you're hauling heavy loads in your bed or cargo area or you're towing a trailer, you will often see the rear of your vehicle sag while the front end rises. In these cases, the rear axle is handling not only the weight of the cargo, but also more of the vehicle's weight. Because less weight is on the front axle, the front tires are making less contact with the road. Overall handling - traction, steering, and braking - is negatively affected. But the resistance from Timbren's Suspension Enhancement System works with your factory suspension to keep your vehicle level and improve your driving experience.
The Timbren system comes with custom-fit brackets that are bolted onto each frame rail above the rear axle. Hollow rubber springs are bolted to the bottom of the bracket and hang down to where the bottom of the spring sits, 1" above the axle. The inch of clearance allows the existing factory suspension to operate normally under light loads and standard terrain, ensuring the smooth, comfortable ride that you are used to.
Timbren Suspension Enhancement Systems are designed to work progressively. When the hollow rubber springs are compressed, the convoluted design causes them to quickly collapse along the folds. Once the folds are compacted, the stacked barrel shape increases resistance, stiffening the suspension and keeping your vehicle level.
Each hollow rubber spring works independently to support the driver's side or passenger's side of your vehicle. This is helpful when you swerve or make sharp turns. Each spring is activated when it is needed, so body roll is greatly reduced. The independent action also works well when you are hauling off-center loads.
Because the vehicle handles better with the springs, less turbulence will be passed along to the trailer, and this helps to keep the trailer in line. Your driving comfort is further enhanced if the trailer does begin to sway (from a gust of wind or a passing semi), because the movement from the trailer is not transferred to your vehicle. This also works to make the sway subside more quickly.
Another great feature of the rubber construction is that the springs absorb most of the road shock, creating a smoother, more stable ride overall. Wear and tear on the factory suspension is also lessened because the rubber springs work to prevent bottoming out on rough roads.
Timbren Suspension Enhancement Compared to the Competition
Timbren's Suspension Enhancement Systems are much easier to install than air springs - there are no air hoses to run, no compressors or gauges to hook up, and no manual adjustments to make. The rubber construction makes Timbren's springs more elastic than similar products constructed of microcellular urethane. And more elasticity allows for a more comfortable ride because the rubber has more travel.

Wonderful product, was hoping theses would work so I didn't have to put air bags on truck and they exceeded my expectations.On my 2017 F250 before I installed the Timbren suspension enhancement system, my truck with stock rubber stops sit down over 3inches,but once I installed the Timbren suspension system with the same camper the truck only sit down around an inch or maybe a little less. Since I did this we traded campers with one that weight in just less than 15,000 lbs and the truck didn't change any. The truck sits level,I have no sway,braking comes from all wheels. Each time we travel (at least once or more a month)it's a joy to be to relax and enjoy the ride ,the camping and family

Great product, gave my f250 a little more support. No sag at all when my 38 ft 5th wheel is hooked up. Etrailer got it to me in 2 days.

Easy to install on a 2024 F250. They seem to do the job with no noise or fuss.

Purchased a 2023 F250 to accommodate an older Lance 815 we own. Was surprised how much "roll" this produced while driving. After the installation of the Timbren's it provided great stability and more confidence on the mountain roads.

Delivery was on time. Product is a perfect fit.
I've had these before and they really helped with the extra load and reduced the rear end sway.
by: Michael05/27/2022
The Timbren system was straight forward and easy to install. No doubt about it. Now to see if it dampens as all state it does. My issue wasn't Etrailer shipping it in the OEM box, it was the fact they did not even take the time to tape the tab that opens up the box. It was barely inserted when I received it and it could have had pieces fall out. Just take the few seconds to tape a box up.

This product has worked very well to dampen and create a higher capacity rated frame stop over manufacturer OEM. Would certainly recommend it. We tow a fifth wheel with a rated 1700 lb pin weight but it is a bit more after loading. The Timbrens barely contact the frame.
by: Rob03/31/2024
I am happy with the product. However not happy with etrailer. After I ordered my part the part went on sale before I received my order. etrailer would not work with me on the sale price, so I do not use etrailer anymore

Works great better than having the air bags
by: Shane 07/21/2023
2019FordF-250 Super Duty
These work great. I got them originally for a travel trailer and for loading down the bed of the truck. Since then we have gotten a 5th wheel, and these make a world of difference. I even talked a guy into getting a set of these for his truck at the snow plow shop (front, not the rears). Which reminds me, I have them on all 4 corners now. Even the RV store recommends Timbren, which I noticed yesterday.

Working 100 as advertised! Super easy install. No issues like airbags. Smoothed out the ride when hauling my 5th wheel camper
by: Drew R.04/18/2022
2019FordF-250 Super Duty
I really like these Timbren bump stops. I think the best thing about them is the simplicity, both how they work and how easy the install was. I bought these when I added a dump insert (similar to a salt spreader) into my 2019 F-250. I have loaded this truck heavy before with dirt and the truck sagged tremendously and had a lot of body roll. To prevent this with the now added dump insert, I installed these. Super easy to install! Took maybe 30 min. It reduces body roll and seems to improve the ride depending on how loaded the truck is.
One unfortunate consequence to the install is that the Timbrens brought to light that I have a weak leaf spring on my passenger side, which was suspect previously.
Overall, I'm very pleased with this purchase and would buy again!

Excellent quality. Easy to install. And work like a charm! Highly recommend this product to anybody that hauls heavy loads and doesn’t want their vehicle squatted down.

Truck Squatting was reduced from 3" to 1" after the the install. The difference in ride quality while pulling my trailer is very noticeable. I did not give it 5 stars due to poor packaging and missing bolts.

just what i needed to eliminate about three inches of squat when i trailed my new fifth wheel the timbren's have about three quarters of an inch of clearance to the axle bracket so that there is no effect on the unloaded ride, only with the pin weight
by: Jeremiah 02/02/2022
I have used these for over a year now and I am constantly amazed how this simple part works as well as it does. I have a 36 foot 5th wheel that has about a 1 1/2" squat when I hook it up. The load just feels much more stable and secure without so much wallowing. I had a set in my f 150 also and for the price on both vehicles, I see no downside. They are a very simple product that provides great benefits. I will buy them again for sure. I would put them on anything.

Absolutely love them. They give you more suspension when you need it without the hassle of air bags. Installing them is a breeze.

Just installed but upon arrival, the item was definitely not “New” as the packaging was re-taped and missing one of the washers. Expected more from eTrailer.

Added 1 inch spacer and it leaves 1/2 inch clearance. Perfect for my 2021 Ford F250 Tremor package (2 inch factory lift) with Lance 650 slide in truck camper to control roll on trips.
by: Patrick03/30/2023
I think the timbren where the best choice for keeping the sag down on my truck while pulling my camper I didn’t want to deal with inflating and deflating air bags all the time so the timbren seemed like a better choice they work well for me and thanks to etrailer for there great customer service and fast shipping and prices

- Spacers Needed To Add To Timbren Jounce Springs On a Lifted 2018 Ford F-250 Super DutyThe Timbren Suspension Enhancement System # TFR250SDJ is designed to fit the stock height suspension on your 2018 Ford F-250. As you added a lift you will need to use 1" # TA25723-90AD00 or 1/2" # TA25722-90P00 Spacers to compensate for the amount of rear lift your lift added. You will need to source the M10-1.5 Grade 8.8 bolt locally that is the correct length depending on the amount of spacers you add.
view full answer... - Best Suspension Enhancement 2017 Ford F-250The best suspension enhancement by far for your 2017 Ford F-250 towing a heavy fifth wheel trailer is the RoadActive Suspension kits. They give the best stability, support, and unlike other solutions actually improves ride quality. The Timbrens are notoriously harsh so I would not recommend that route for you. So if you have factory overload springs you'd want the part # RAS3611-SLHD or the # RAS3611-SHD if you do not.

This is all you need if you are using them for towing/hauling. They come with hardware as well so everything you need for install is there except for tools.

view full answer... - Recommended Timbren Springs for 2020 Ford F-250I have a solution for you, but according to my contact at Timbren you won't be able to swap the springs from your 2015 Ram 3500 to a 2020 Ford F-250 since they are different sizes. For that reason you'll need to replace your Timbrens completely using the # TFR250SDJ, which are confirmed to fit on the 2020 Ford F-250 and will provide you with a similar system to the one you had on your Ram. These Timbren springs install without drilling and are compatible with in-bed hitch systems, if you...
view full answer... - Timbren Kit Recommendation for 2017 Ford F-250 Towing 5th Wheel The Timbren kit you should get for your 2017 Ford F-250 short bed towing a fifth wheel trailer is the part # TFR250SDJ which would do a better job of balancing support and ride quality over the part # TFRTT350J that you referenced. The # TFRTT350J is for severe service applications so it would be really harsh.

These have an 8,600 lbs capacity so they are going to offer a ton of support and help with the handling and sag that your customer is having trouble with but without making the ride really rough. There is another kit, the Timbren Suspension Enhancement System # TFRTT350J, but these are extremely rigid, don't have...

The severe duty # TFR250SDJ is 3-5/8 inches tall and has the same bracket height of 2-3/8 inches plus a 1 inch spacer.

This kit provides 8,600lbs of load leveling support to your rear suspension as you mentioned, and will install with a 1/2" - 1-1/2" gap between the spring and axle that way you do not have an overly stiff unloaded ride.

- Comparing the Timbren SES Part TFR350SDJ and Part TFR250SDJ for a Ford F-250/F-250The Timbren Suspension Enhancement System part # TFR350SDJ is correct for your 2017 Ford F-350 whereas the Timbren Suspension Enhancement System part # TFR250SDJ is for a 2017-2019 Ford F-250. The brackets on both of these systems are the same so you can use one on the other but the F-250 kit has a 4-1/2" tall spring whereas the F-350 kit has a 5-3/16" tall spring. Therefore, the F-250 kit will not engage as soon as the F-350 kit when used on a F-350. The later engagement will equate to...

This is the severe service kit which is designed for applications like your salt spreader where the truck has a constant load. The difference is that the # TFRTT350J already has the springs compressed which will give you a better ride with the spreader. Normally I would recommend air bags like the # F95FV since you won't have a lot of weight in the truck outside of winter. These will...

But if you want the best option I would highly recommend the RoadActive Suspension kit part # RAS3611-SLHD as this gives you adjustable suspension support that will actually improve your handling and ride quality unlike other options like the Timbrens that make the ride quality noticeable harsher.

The Sumo Springs offer 2800 lbs of support versus the 8600 lbs offered by the Timbren springs. Given that the pin weight of your 5th wheel wouldn't be more than 2000 lbs, the Sumo Springs will be absolutely perfect, providing the proper amount of support with a better ride quality than what you experienced with the Timbrens.

Timbren makes a great product, but I prefer the SumoSprings # SSR-128-47-2 for trucks with a bump stop perch over the axle or # SSR-129-47-2 for vehicles without the perch. 4x4 vehicles should use the # SSR-128-47-2, but you'll want to check for the bump stop perch to be sure.

The other Kit # TFRTT350J is their severe service springs which are designed to always be loaded. This works best on trucks outfitted with slide in campers, service beds or salt spreaders that will always reside in the bed.

The # TFR250SDJ only fits the F-250. Unless you have altered your suspension this should fit as intended by the manufacturer. Ideally you want 1/2" to 1" of clearance, but it will still work with 1/4" assuming you only have 7-3/4" of space. This would simply mean that the Timbren system would engage sooner since there would be less distance before contact. If you would like an alternative...
