Expert Reply:
When towing your 5th-wheel trailer on your 2022 Ford F-250 (4x4), I recommend the SumoSprings Rebel # SSR-128-47-2 over the Timbren Suspension Enhancement System # TFRTT350J. The reason why is because the SumoSprings, even though they are similar to the Timbrens, are made of a more pliable material for a better ride quality. Overall, the SumoSprings has a 5,000 pound weight capacity (at 50%) compression, which is more than enough to support the vertical load on your 10,000 pound trailer. If you have a bump stop perch over your axle, you will need the # SSR-129-47-2 springs.
