Can Timbren SES be Used in Place of Weight Distribution System?
Question:
Would you still need to use your Weight Distribution Hitch if you install the Timbren SES? Would these take the place of that?
asked by: Michael
Expert Reply:
A Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System such as # TFR1504D which fits your 2013 Ford F-150, does not take the place of a weight distribution system. The Timbren systems will help reduce body roll and absorb shock but will not transfer the load of your trailer and distribute it across the axles of your trailer and F-150 in the same manner is a weight distribution system. The Timbrens will also not help to either prevent or reduce sway the way many weight distribution systems will.
I have added a link to a help article on weight distribution systems for you to take a look at which should be beneficial.
