• Trailer Suspension Enhancement For a Underslung Axle with 2" Wide Leaf Springs

• What Leaf Spring Mounted Suspension Enhancement Fits a 2007 Chevrolet Suburban 2500?
• The RoadActive Suspension Custom Leaf Spring Enhancement Kit # RAS4611 is the only leaf spring mounted style helper spring we carry which is confirmed to fit your 2007 Chevrolet Suburban 2500. While the SuperSprings Suspension Stabilizer # SSA8MTKT is a rather universal component since it has not been confirmed to fit and tested by SuperSprings I do not recommend going that route as it could possibly damage your suspension.

• Can 3,500 lb Axle Trailer Leaf Spring 25-1/4 inch get Replaced with 5k Rated Spring
• Hey Jaime, yes you can replace your 25-1/4 inch 3,500 lb axle leaf springs with a 5k rated axle spring like the part # e44SR. This will increase the suspension's weight capacity and might make the ride quality a little rougher but it would fit and work just fine.

• Will SuperSprings Suspension Stabilizer and Sway Control Kit Fit a 2019 Coachmen Leprechaun 319MB
• The SuperSprings Custom Suspension Stabilizer and Sway Control Kit # SSA22 is listed to fit and install above the leaf springs on your 2019 Coachmen Leprechaun 319MB. I tried looking up a photo of the suspension on your motorhome but I could find anything, so if you can shoot me a photo of what you have I can look at it on my end. I'm also attaching a photo of this same kit installed on a 2019 Ford Super Duty so you can compare it to what you have.

• Upgraded Leaf Spring Contact Pads For 2024 Chevy Silverado 3500
• Hi Cody; thanks for the question and while we do have an option for upgraded contact pads that fit the overload leaf springs on your 2024 Chevy Silverado 3500, I checked with SuperSprings and their contact pads are not a fit for the '24. What you can use instead is an option from TorkLift: - TorkLift StableLoad Suspension Upgrade for Upper Overload Springs # TLA7200 I verified directly with TorkLift and confirmed the # TLA7200 are a fit for your '24 Silverado 3500.

• Recommended Suspension Upgrade to Handle Axle Wrap on a 1998 Ford F-250 LD
• No, they will not but I have something that does. The SuperSprings Custom Suspension Stabilizer and Sway Control Kit item # SSA13 does a great job of keeping your F-250's rear end from sagging but won't help with axle wrap. Instead, you will want the RoadActive Suspension Custom Leaf Spring Enhancement Kit item # RAS3611-HD. This system offers 3,000 lbs in support for your truck's rear end. You can adjust the tension of these springs to fine tune the comfort of your ride. These will...

• Will the etrailer 5-Leaf Double Eye Leaf Springs Fit a 2018 Prime Time Avenger 31DBS
• Anthony, unfortunately we don't have a master list of all the fits and non-fits for the 5-Leaf Double-Eye Spring for 6,000-lb Trailer Axles # e34SR but you can easily measure the leaf spring that you're replacing to verify. If your current leaf spring unloaded measures 25 1/4" from center to center between spring eyes and has 1 3/4" wide springs then this will work for you.

• Can You Trim SumoSprings Trailer Helper Springs SS26MV & Will They Still Work
• Hey there Ken, that's a good question and the answer is yes, per the nice folks at SuperSprings, you can go ahead and trim the SumoSprings Trailer Helper Springs # SS26MV. They will still work for your trailer to give your trailer a much more stable ride, and take a lot of the wear and tear away from other components, particularly the leaf springs. The # SS26MV are for 5,000 lb to 8,000 lb overslung axles, which means the leaf springs will be mounted above the axle.

• Determining The Correct Replacement Equalizers For A Tandem Axle Trailer With 5,200lb Axles
• Hey Mike, To determine if the MORryde Rubber Equalizers for Tandem Axle Trailers # MR87ZR would be a compatible fit you'll first want to measure the bolt hole spacing on your current equalizers. The # MR87ZR has a 6-1/2" center to center spacing for the shackle strap bolt holes and a 3-1/4" height from the hanger bolt hole down to the center of the shackle strap holes. Changing the spacing can alter the way the suspension travels and could potentially cause a bind so we always recommend...

• Do Timbren Coil Springs For 2022 Toyota RAV4 Have Weight Rating
• Hi Sharon, There is not a weight rating for the Timbren Suspension Enhancement System # T58GR that fit your 2022 Toyota RAV4, they will be effective regardless of the weight on the springs, as they compress based on the amount of weight you have there. The Air Lift 1000 Air Helper Springs for Coil Springs # AL64VJ have a 1,000 lb weight rating, though that means they can help level your RAV4 with up to 1,000 lbs of weight on the springs. Realistically though, there won't be 1,000 lbs...

• Recommended Air Springs For A 2023 Ford F-150 4WD
• Hey Gilbert, The right air spring kit for your 2023 Ford F-150 4WD is going to depend on if your model has Continuously Controlled Damping (CCD) suspension or Onboard Scales option as well as if you have a PowerBoost hybrid engine. If you have CCD suspension then there is not going to be a compatible kit for your F-150. If you don't have a PowerBoost hybrid engine then Air Lift # AL47PD you were looking at would be a fit. If you do have a PowerBoost hybrid engine then you'll need Air...

• Will Standard Axle Give Trailer 4" Lift if Trailer Currently Has 4" Drop Axles
• Hey Karl, you are correct with your line of thinking. The Over-Under Conversion Kits like part # K71-384-00 for a 2-3/8" diameter axle is normally my go-to for increasing trailer height when the axle is above the leaf springs, but since you have a 4" drop axle the lower part of the axle will still be hanging pretty low. By changing to a standard axle like the 3.5K Dexter Axle # 7359765 you were looking at will naturally life your trailer 4" as well as increase the clearance for your axles...

• Recommended Trailer Hitch For A 2019 Subaru Crosstrek Hauling A Honda CRF230F
• Hi Daniel, The Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 76209 is a confirmed fit for the 2019 Subaru Crosstrek. It has a 675lb tongue weight capacity so you'll have more than enough capacity to carry the 249lb Honda CRF230F in a hitch mounted carrier like the etrailer # e56UR. If the Crosstrek is 4WD then I also recommend installing the Coil SumoSprings Custom Helper Springs # CSS-1125R to help support the suspension and prevent sagging.

• Determining If Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension Will Work With Brake And Wheel Assmeblies
• Hi John, Increasing the axle capacity will not increase the load that the trailer can haul because you're still limited to capacity of the trailer's frame. Swapping up to a higher weight class can also give you a stiffer ride and uneven tire wear because the suspension isn't being loaded enough to compress the suspension and have the tires sit straight without camber. There's also a lot of legal hoops to jump through when it comes to altering the GVWR of the trailer. If it's not a crazy...

• Which Air Bags For 2024 Ford F-150 4WD With EcoBoost Engine
• Hi Cole, There are a couple options for air bags for your 2024 Ford F-150 4WD with the EcoBoost engine, it just depends on if your truck is equipped with Continuously Controlled Damping (CCD) or the optional Onboard Scales. I didn't see an option for an F-150 Sport model so I can't tell you if your model has the option for Damping. So here is what you'd use, depending on your set up: - WITHOUT Scales or CCD: Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs # AL47PD - WITH Scales or CCD: Firestone...
