Recommended Suspension Enhancement Option With Most Support for 2007 Jeep Wrangler  

Question:

Hi all. I have a question regarding suspension support / enhancement for my 2007 Jeep Wrangler Sahara Unlimited. Ive been researching various solutions for some time now and Im hoping you could give me some proper insight. Ive always loved your site and find it super informative and helpful along with excellent products. So, I recently purchased a 2019 coachmen camper self contained its only 17 and I believe the weight is under or right around 3000lbs. I made sure to get something fit for my Jeep. Also, my jeep has the factory tow package with the class 3 hitch / receiver and 4:10 rear end. I towed it home with no issues or enhancements of any kind but definitely want to make sure things are right for hitting the road here soon. When I hooked it up there was probably around 4 maybe a little moreof rear sag. My worry is that when the jeep gets loaded for the road, along with the camper, the sag will get even worse. Im trying to make sure to stay within the GVWR. Currently the Timbrens have my attention as they seem like they would work for what Im looking for and also being maintenance free. I should mention that minus the camper, I also have a couple of rear racks that I use luggage and bike that also cause some rear sag when loaded Im sure due to the distance they sit off the hitch due to the spare tire. So to me the Timbrens seem like they would help for a number of things. In your opinions, would this be feasible choice or would airbags be a better option? Ive thought of using a weight distribution hitch for the camper but I want something thats multi-purpose and also not heavy as to not add additional weight to my already low limits. How much sag could I expect if I used the Timbrens? Is there a certain distance they have to travel or set amount of sag in the factory suspension before they essentially kick in? And would they make THAT significant of a difference as opposed to other options? Im also aware these items dont increase my towing capabilities, so Im not trying to overload by any means. Just want to be safer. Im sorry to be so long winded but Im just trying to find the best option : Thank You very much for any help you can provide. ~ Carl.

The Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System part # TJRJK is an excellent option for a 2007 Jeep Wrangler. In fact, there are few others that will provide the level of support that they do. In regards to sag, the spring will sit around 1/2"-1" away from the contact point so the Jeep will sag around this plus 1/4"-1/2" for the weight of the trailer and gear. That said, these are just estimates but you should not have much sag at all with the Timbrens and they are really the best option for this. The ease of installation and lack of maintenance makes them a crowd favorite.
