The Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System # TFRRGR that fits your 2020 Ford Ranger are a really good option for suspension enhancement on your truck, and are exactly what I would use if it was my Ranger. These will be something you can put on your Ranger to improves its traction and handling when you are towing (or have a load in the bed), but it won't affect how your truck drives on a day-to-day basis. The reason for that is there will be about a 1" gap after the installation so you'd only feel them if you went over a large bump/pot hole or were driving on a horribly maintained road.

These springs are really easy to install and also do not require any maintenance whatsoever after you put them on your truck, unlike air springs, for example. I have added a link to a video review of the Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System # TFRRGR for you to check out as well.

Since the only difference between the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs #SS76MR and #SS86MR is the weight rating (the former being 1,000 lbs and the latter being 1,500 lbs) I recommend going with the lighter option - part #SS76MR. It would be…
