Compatibility of SumoSprings SS26MV With 5th Wheel w/ 7K Axles  

Question:

I have a 40ft 5th wheel RV. The GVW is 16,000lbs. It has Lippert 7000lb axles and Lippert Equa-flex suspension. Will these springs work well to stabilize and soften the ride on rough roads?

Helpful Expert Reply:

If your 7K axles have overslung leaf springs (sits atop the axle), the SumoSprings TSS-107-47 which we sell as part # SS26MV would for well for you. The kit includes a line relocation kit in case there's a wiring harness, water or gas line in the way that would interfere with the installation.

The springs are rated for 5-8K, so they'll work great with your 7K axles. The kit includes spacers to achieve the desired 1/4-1/2 inch preload, and if they're a bit too tall, the springs can be cut down to fit, according to SuperSprings.

I've linked to a product description video as well as to the installation instructions.
