Can SumoSprings Be Used on Front and Timbrens Used on Back of 2019 Thor Ace Motorhome

Question:

I have a 2019 thor ace 27.2 motorhome and my question is I need proffessional advice on the timbren or sumosprings for a easier ride. I was thinking of sumospring ssf-170-40-2 for the front and the Timbren tfrf53a for the rearI don’t want to take off tires and drill frame. Would you recommend this or stick with just one of the two brands? Thank you

The SumoSprings and Timbrens are very comparable brands and both provide excellent quality. The main difference between the 2 is that SumoSprings tend to have more of a forgiving cushion while the Timbren kits tend to be a bit more stiff - which usually works best for heavy duty applications.

There really isn't any issue mixing the 2 brands (one for front and one for back) so I think using the SumoSprings # SSF-173-40-2 for the front of your 2019 Thor Ace 27.2 and then the Timbren Kit # TFRF53A for the rear where there will be more weight is an excellent combination of the 2 systems.

Attached are review videos of each kit for you to check out.
