Recommended Airless Suspension Enhancement System for 2003 Ford F-250
Question:
Hello, Im looking to purchase an airless suspension enhancement for my 2003 ford f250 super duty 4x4 crew cab v10 and about 3inch lift. What do you recomend? I like the sumosprings but would consider other brands with less expensive tags. Thank you.

There are a few different options for an airless suspension enhancement system for your 2003 Ford F-250. The SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs - Rear Axle # SSR-114-54 referenced in your question is a great option. The sturdy springs will cushion bumps and help support a heavy load to level your truck. They have a 2,800 pound weight capacity and offer progressive load control, which means that the springs will compress according to the weight of your cargo.
I also recommend looking at the Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System # TFR250SDE, which is confirmed to work with your Ford F-250. These have a higher weight capacity at 6,000 pounds so it may be a better option depending on the load you plan on hauling in your F-250. The hollow rubber springs will sit above the rear axle to help stabilize and level your vehicle. This system also comes with 2 spacer plates which may be necessary with the 3 inch lift on your truck. Additional plates can also be obtained if needed with part # A25723-90AH00. I have attached a helpful article on the Timbren Systems for you to review.
I have also included video demonstrations on both of these systems for you to check out.
