Fit and Compatibility of Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement on a 2015 Ram 5500 Cab and Chassis

Question

Question:

On my 2015 Ram 5500 cab and chassis I have 2 bump stops on each spring, one near the rear and one near the front. Will this product work on my truck? Does it come with 4 springs, 2 for each axle? Thanks

I confirmed with Timbren that the # TDR5500 is indeed the correct suspension enhancement spring for your 2015 Ram 5500 Cab and Chassis. The contents of the kit are designed for the stop over the axle as seen in the attached diagram. This kit includes 2 aeon rubber springs. The # TDR5500 can be installed whether you vehicle was equipped with or without factory top overload springs.

What it sounds like you are describing is the upper overload springs. The Torklift # TLA7200 is a good upgrade for the load stabilization purpose. It will include 4 bump stops that will require no drilling for installation on your 2015 Ram 5500 Cab and Chassis. I have included an image of these for you to better see, they are highlighted in yellow for ease of seeing them on the frame but will come in black. These StableLoad bump stops will be compatible as long as you do not have a SuperSprings suspension kit installed.
