Will Timbrens Fit on 2017 Ford F-150 with Reese Quick-Install Custom Outboard Installation Kit
Question:
Looking to help the rear suspension for my 2017 F150 Super crew, 3.5 Ecoboost, 10 speed auto, max payload package 2310 lbs. towing a fifth wheel, 1400 lbs. hitch weight. I have installed the Reese RP56034-53 bracket and rail kit. I believe the Timbren TFR1504E kit will fit...? Are there other options....? Thanks for your advise.

Expert Reply:
The Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System # TFR1504E is compatible with the Reese Quick-Install Custom Outboard Installation Kit # RP56034-53 you have installed on your 2017 Ford F-150. These are a great addition to the OEM suspension on your pickup and will do a great job at helping to keep the rear of your truck up.
The only other option I would throw out there are air bags but I would only use those if you do a lot of hauling with your F-150. The great thing about the Timbrens is that after you install them you can literally forget that they are there as they require zero maintenance. These are also designed to only engage when you need them so you don't have to worry about inflating or deflating air bags like you would with an air bag kit.
Attached are installation videos of both the base rail kit and the Timbrens for you to reference.
