Suspension Enhancement for 2016 Ford F-150 Not as Harsh As Timbren
Question:
I have installed the TFR1504E kit on the rear of my 2016 F150 2wd without the spacer and have about 1/2 of clearance between the bottom of the rubber spring and the metal axle plate when empty. The ride quality while empty is very poor now with the back end kicking back against the springs on every small bump. Are there options to remedy this?

Expert Reply:
Timbrens are unfortunately notoriously harsh and there isn't a way to gain additional clearance like you would need to improve the ride quality so only option would be a different system that is less harsh.
A better option would be the RAS kit part # RAS94FR which will give you the support you are looking for as well as isn't harsh at all. Most report it actually improves ride quality handling and stability so it would work really well for you.
