Question:
Which system between Sumo springs and Road-master shocks provides the most relief on RV leaf springs? 2020 Cherokee Wolfpack 325pack13.

Expert Reply:
The Roadmaster Comfort Ride Shock Absorbers are going to offer better support for your trailer's leaf springs over the SumoSprings # TSS-107-40 you were looking at.
SumoSprings are great because they have a very soft to stiff progression so that you don't have a stiff ride when unloaded but because of this have a lower overall capacity than other options on the market.
The Comfort Ride shocks are going to be constantly fighting against bumps on the road to cancel out the chucking and porpoising you're experiencing with your toy hauler to give you a better ride quality. Since you're most likely loading up motorcycles, golf carts, etc. the Comfort Ride is going to be the better option to handle the vast difference in the weight you'll be hauling around.
These kits are specific to the weight capacity and diameter of the axle so you'll want to verify the capacity and diameter before choosing your kit. With your Wolfpack having a 16k GVWR you most likely have 7K - 3" axles so the # RM-2460 would be the correct kit for you. If you find you have something else please let me know and I can find the correct fit.
I've also attached a video below where Dave will walk you through the installation process and offer some additional information on these shocks.
