Rear SumoSprings Suspension Enhancement for 2019 Ford F-53 Chassis with 22K GVWR

Question:

Hello! Looking through the options and I'm trying to find the right rear sumo springs for my RV. It's the 19 F-53 chassis and the motorhome has a 22K gvwr. I just want to make sure I'm picking the right system....thanks for your guidance.

The correct SumoSprings Helper Springs for the rear axle on your 2019 Ford F-53 chassis with a 22K GVWR is the Maxim Custom Helper Springs # SSR-187-54-1. These 5,400 pound capacity springs are a confirmed fit for this setup and will work great to smooth out bumps in the road and create much better overall support during travel. All the needed hardware is included.

I have attached an installation video on a 2019 F-53 motorhome below that you can also follow along with.

i just installed the front sumo springs on my 2018 thor hurricane 34J; is it possible to put them on the rear without removing the 4 rear tires? every video i have seen says to remove the tires.

The instructions for the SumoSprings Maxim Custom Helper Springs # SSR-187-54-1 don't really call for the rear tires to be removed but it definitely helps. Since the rear frame needs to be jacked up anyways I'd just remove the tires as well just to give yourself more room and make it easier to see what's going on.
