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.

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

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
2019 Ford F-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.
by: Rob06/05/2023
2020 Ford F-250 Super Duty
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.

Fantastic news that it worked for you. Not so fantastic news that it was missing hardware. Customer Service will be in touch with you.

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.

They still work great and i have no regrets purchasing them.

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.

I deeply apologize for the condition that this package has arrived in. I can assure you that we do not sell used product. It is possible that our installation or content teams had opened the packaging for our website content. Let me get you over to our customer service department about that washer.

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

- How Tall are The Timbren Kits that Fit 2020 Ford F-250We have two Timbren rear suspension kits that fit your 2020 Ford F-250 we have the standard duty # TFRTT350J which has a spring height of 3-9/16 inch and a bracket height of 2-3/8 inches. 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. Timbren states that once a system is installed you will need 1/2 inch to 1-1/2 inches of space between the bottoms of the springs and the top of the axle. So that's why the higher capacity...

- Recommended Suspension Enhancement for 2022 Ford F-250 With Plow and Salt SpreaderThe Timbren Suspension Enhancement System # TFR250SDJ will work, but I recommend the # TFRTT350J instead. 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...

These have a 8,000lb capacity. If you use your vehicle for occasional towing and weight in the bed the Timbren Suspension Enhancement System # TFR250SDJ is the better system to use.

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.

- Are Timbren or SumoSprings a Better Option For a 2024 Ford F-250 Super Duty? Personally I feel the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs # SSR-127-54 are a better option for more users on a 2024 Ford F-250 than the Timbren # TFR250SDJ. The SumoSprings are more more progressive and will provide a better ride quality when unloaded or only carrying light loads. I only recommend going with the Timbren springs when you always carry heavy loads such as replacing your bed with a contractor box loaded with tools.

If you had said you towed a lot, I may have steered you towards the Timbren kit # TFR250SDJ as it is heavy duty, but there is no adjustability. This is why I wouldn't recommend it for your case. With that said, I suggest going with the Firestone Ride-Rite Red Label Extreme Duty Air Helper Springs # F95FV. This will give...

And second we have # TFRTT350J which is rated for 8,000 pounds and also fits 2- and 4-wheel drive models. So each of those part numbers appears twice because of the 2-wheel drive and 4-wheel drive categories.

view full answer... - What Is Best Suspension Enhancement for 2019 Ford F-250 with Truck Bed CamperIf you were to use a Timbren kit for rear suspension enhancement for your 2019 Ford F-250 you'd want the lighter duty # TFR250SDJ as the 350 version would be very harsh and not comfortable. 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.

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.

If you want to go with the former and purchase the spacer separately then you'd need the Timbren 1/2" Spacer for Raised Frame Vehicles part # TA25722-90P00.

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.
