Rear Suspension Support
A heavy rear load can cause sag as your factory suspension compresses under the weight of the 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, improve driving performance, and keep your ride comfortable.
SumoSprings provide progressive load control - the more you load them, the stiffer they become. 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.
The springs can also compress by as much as 80 percent to support a heavy rear load and to help your factory suspension bear up under the load. 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, ensures safe headlight aim, and helps to minimize sway. The springs also support your factory suspension, which helps prevent sagging and reduces bottoming out.
The 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 helps compensate for an off-center load.
Durable, Custom-Fit Springs
These microcellular urethane springs are tough. They resist abrasion, oil, salt, and UV rays that can more quickly wear out other springs, and they perform well in temperatures ranging from -25 F to 200 F (-33 C to 93 C).
SumoSprings compress 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 air springs, SumoSprings require no maintenance or adjustment.
The helper springs are custom designed to fit your vehicle, and they install easily - no drilling required.

Very straight forward installation. Simple. very noticeable difference under load. Towing with the gooseneck also an improvement, looking forward to the longer road trip test. So far pleased with the product and results

So far so good. Easy install and the ride without the spacer is great. Will update after towing and heavy load use.
by: David06/26/2020
This installation was on a 2014 F-150. I tow a Winnebago Micro-Mini 5th wheel with a hitch weight of 1,060 lbs.
Frame to axle stock was 7.5 inches. The Sumo springs without the spacer lifted my
PU 0.5 inches. The Sumo springs are always in contact with the axle so my ride has greatly changed. As I am an outdoorsman and travel on a lot of gravel roads fishing and hunting, I will have to remove the Sumo springs when I am not using the trailer as the ride is totally unbearable on any unpaved road.
As for using the Sumo springs with the 5th wheel, when loaded the springs compress 0.5 inches to a axle to frame distance of 7.5 inches (ie stock) The ride with the camper is very stable and there is no excessive bounce. The springs perform very well when loaded.
In my research of this product it is advertised that there is a 1 inch gap between the sumo spring and the frame to allow for a comfortable ride. That is not true and is the reason for my poor review.
by: Scott 04/21/2024
They work great. Easy to install myself. Would definitely recommend.
by: Ronald09/18/2019
This helped so much with bounce. Install was very easy on my 2018 F150 did not even need to remove the tires even with the extra 1 inch spacer. Thing to remember when you install them you put the bolt in the right hole. If you dont it will not sit right on your axle when you put weight on it. After my long trip with TT my back end did not bounce like crazy. My tuck does not have max tow so suspension is not tight. This made it like i had max tow package. After my trip I removed 1 bolt and removed the 1 inch spacer and now back to normal ride. You can leave spacer on it will make ride a little stiffer. But wife did not like that. I don't mind removing 1 bolt and add/remove spacers when needed. Also no bag to pop or leaks. People that post pics or say did not site right. Only 2 things can cause that. 1. Put into wrong bolt hole when installing. 2. Too much weight. You can't go wrong with them. They do what they said they do.

Still as it was when installed. Does what its supposed to do. Only partially negative affect is the ride when using this truck for my daily communtes on Michigan terrible condition roads, makes for an extra firm bounce.
by: Terris04/17/2021
I installed these last year after pulling an enclosed 12x7 cargo trailer 400 miles. The vehicle seemed soft in the rear.
I didn't need to use it for towing till a couple weeks ago when I pulled a car trailer and car 600 miles and oh what a difference. No squat, no blinding oncoming traffic no soft feeling. Just the way it should be. I left the spacer out on the install so it would ride normal unless loaded. I would recommend this product.

This product is great for a suspension upgrade for hauling loads on a soft spring ttuck. The fx4s rear springs are made for a soft ride. The Sumo spring turn it into a real truck and it can pull a trailer without bouncing around. Its more in between a 150 and a 250 now. Im glad I did this.

I have a slide in camper on my F-150 and it caused a little sagging and some swaying in turns. The Sumo Springs do everything they say they will do for your truck. Installation took about 30 mins, the instructions were super easy to follow, 2 sockets (1-13 mm and 1-15mm and one 15 mm box wrench . After installation I could tell the difference in the handling of my truck immediately, less side to side sway and about 3 inches of lift at the rear.
Definitely worth the time and money. I would recommend these to every truck owner who hauls either a camper or a heavy load.

A follow up on the sumo springs after a year of use they are a perfect solution for your trucks suspension. They greatly reduce any body sway and help level the truck I still highly recommend these springs for anyone with a truck that is hauling campers.

The product was easy to install. The Tools needed list needs to be updated. Removing bolt is 13mm. Installing new bolts are 15mm. Also the nuts that are tack welded inside the frame will break loose if any rust or debris are on the threads. Back up wrench is near impossible if to fit if the size is not known. End up cutting the old bolt because of this. That’s not your products fault. That’s Fords issue. With the 1” spacers provided it raise my F150 4 1/2”. Stiffened the ride up. Ready to haul my 5th wheel. NICE

The Sumo Springs are still performing well. I Hauled our 29.5 5th Wheel from Upstate NY TO Florida through a major 4 State nor’easter. We have also bought a 16’ cargo trailer and hauled it to it’s full weight capacitie. The truck is still sitting high.
by: Bradley09/09/2021
This solved the problem of the my 2016 F150 sagging when I have my work trailer hooked up. They lifted the rear of my truck up 2 3/8 inch from what it was. Funny thing is, its only 3/4 inch from the factory height.
Now I will say I can tell a difference in the ride being alot stiffer when the trailer is connected. The difference when not using the trailer is just a little more stiff. I did use the spacers.
I also complained to the staff at etrailer because of the stupid shipping times. I originally purchased the springs on 8/27/21 and according to the website, I was supposed to receive them by 8/31/21. Well that didn't happen. I even called and complained, but the blame was on the USPS. I didn't receive them until 9/7/21. The arrival date was the same on the free shipping as with the paid shipping according to the website, but they are wrong about that.

I apologize about the slow wait for your items. I do show that it shipped on 827 and it did go US mail. If you need your item faster next time, I would not go with the free shipping.
by: Bryan 09/18/2022
Wanted to level out while towing our travel trailer and these did exactly that. They also provided a less bouncy and controlled feel to the truck. Install was easy with provided directions.
by: Willard16408/08/2019
I installed these on a 2017 Ford F-150 SuperCab to stop the initial rear-end sag common with towing a trailer. These pickup trucks have springs regulated for a very smooth ride WHILE EMPTY, as most PU's are used as a personal sports car. The SSR product removes the rear sag, without causing a harsh ride.
Easy to install... no maintenance needed... no air-bags to constantly leak. I had already installed Hellwig after-market sway bars on the rear, and also replace the puny Ford OEM front sway bar with a Hellwig product. Together with the Sumo product, there is NO side-sway at all.
This product provides extra support, without detriment to the ride comfort.

One year later...still very happy with the Sumo Springs on the F150. I installed with 1" axle clearance so there is absolutely no change to stock ride when unloaded. When I hitch up the trailer, the Sumo Springs help reduce squat and control the ride. Truck feels more stable when towing the camper.

1 year review of Sumo springs on 2017 Ford F150. Install was very easy, initially used the 1" spacer, but ride without trailer was too rough. Removed the spacer and ride was almost as smooth as truck was originally. The springs definitely helped the ride and control when I attached my travel trailer. I would recommend the springs to anyone who pulls a trailer or carries heavy loads.
by: Jeff 08/27/2022
They definitely help with towing our travel trailer!!
Keeps the truck level with minimal bounce. They do wiggle side to side on bouncy bridges/roads.
Overall happy with the purchase.
Easy to install.

This was probally the single best improvement we did to our 2018 Coleman Light trailer. The have helped reduce the ping pong effect, reduced trailer sway when being passed by semis on the road and made the trailer easier to pull in general.
by: Mark R10/16/2020
Massive improvement to my 2018 Max Tow package F-150s towing stability with a 7500lb GVW travel trailer. Does not eliminate chucking and such, but dampens all of the undesirable movements to a negligible level. Towed over 5000 miles with Sumo Springs front and rear, and would not tow without them.

2010 Ford F-150
Installed on my 2010 F150 XLT to help with sag when pulling our camper. Very easy to install, even with my tires on. Used my large floor jack and raised the frame to create more room. To help with the removal of my stock jounce bumpers, I sprayed PB Blaster on the end of the bolt-located in the opening in the frame. Sorry, I didn't take any pics on the project.

Ordering from Etrailer was great. Fantastic customer service and fast shipping. The Sumo Springs installed very easily in less than an hour. The additional suspension support feels like it is going to help greatly while pulling my 28' 6500# travel trailer with my F150. It has a bit stiffer ride while not towing but I'd say it is minimal. I think this is going to work well thank you Etrailer and thank you Emily in customer service!
by: John03/16/2022
Had these installed for about a year now and have been very happy with them. They definitely make a difference when I'm pulling our travel trailer and don't really engage when we're driving the truck without it; which is exactly what I wanted. I check them occasionally just to make sure they're still in place and there are no issues and they have been performing just fine. So, still very happy with the purchase and definitely believe they make a difference.

Very easy to install. Normal ride unless loaded and ride is smooth, even then. Helps with porpoising when hauling a heavy tongue weight.

Pulling my camper is no longer a “ white knuckle “ experience. These are a no brained if you have a 12 ton pickup and carry heavier loads.

- Should Timbren or SumoSpring Suspension Enhancement be Used for Towing with a 2014 Ford F-150I personally recommend using the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs # SSR-117-47 for your 2014 Ford F-150 4x4 because we have received a lot of feedback from customers stating that the SumoSprings provide a much more comfortable ride than the Timbren alternative. These helper springs are rated for up to 1,500 lbs but please note that any suspension enhancement system is only designed to support a suspension that is in good working order and it will not increase your weight carrying...
view full answer... - Best Suspension Enhancement Recommendation for 2017 Ford F-150 For Ride QualityDue to how thick the spacers are on the SumoSpring kit part # SSR-117-47 if you were to leave them off you'd have barely have any support from this kit since they wouldn't engage soon enough when your suspension is compressing. If you are wanting the best support, sag reduction, and ride quality you'd want the RAS kit part # RAS3611-YHD as it's only option that provides all of the support and stability like you are looking for as well as improves the ride quality. Nearly all other options...

If you wanted to go with the bags anyway, you would need to get the LoadLifter 5000 # AL88385 as we do not sell the LoadLifter PRO. Here is a compressor system that will work # AL25572. If you wanted to go a different route and affect your ride quality less when not hauling, I would get the RoadActive Suspension Enhancement System # RAS3611-Y. This is adjustable...

The springs are 9 inches long and you have 11 inches from the axle to the frame. You will have 1 inch of space between the spring and the axle which is fine. I have attached a video of an installation on a 2017 Ford F-150.

With a 1,100 lb tongue weight trailer, this system will help to keep the rear end from squatting and your headlights from being too high to see the road as intended.

view full answer... - Recommended Suspension Enhancement for Towing Cougar Xlite with 2019 Ford F-150I'll start out by saying that because the Sumo Springs # SSR-117-47 offer progressive load control, meaning that they're soft when unloaded and get progressively stiffer as more weight is applied. When the truck is not carrying a load, they won't make contact with the axle, so they'll really do a good job of not effecting the unloaded ride quality of your vehicle. These are compatible with an in bed hitch like the Reese one you mentioned and would be what I recommend because of the ease...

The springs are 9 inches long and you have 11 inches from the axle to the frame. With the spacer, you will have 1 inch of space between the spring and the axle which is ideal for travel.

Instead, the Sumo Springs Solo Custom Helper Springs # SSR-117-47 would do a great job and provide you with 1500-lbs of support for your rear end; this would be more than enough for the 600-lbs of your tool box and the 450-lbs or so when towing the boat....

- Helper Springs Options and Recommendations for 2021 Ford F150 4x4Although the SumoSprings # SSR-117-47 aren't a fit for your 2021 Ford F150, there are options available for your truck. If you prefer a jounce bumper replacement style helper spring, the Timbren # TFR1504E Aeon spring system would work well for you.

The reason I recommend going with the 1,500 lb system over the 1,000 lb system (part # SSR-117-40) is because it's better to have too much capacity than not enough. The SumoSprings are also made of a much softer material than their counterpart, the Timbrens so they won't have that jolting feeling while you are unloaded...

The reason is because the SumoSprings compress based on the weight you have in the bed or are towing.

In regards to the SumoSprings, you will always want to have a safety margin and the above will be perfect for your setup. The springs have a progressive load rate so the 1,500 model with 850+ lbs will have a smoother ride than the 1,000 lb model with 850+ lbs.

For 4WD models, the Air Lift Load Lifter 5000, part # AL57385 is compatible, according to Air Lift. If you have a 2WD model, I'd recommend the SumoSprings, part # SSR-117-47.
