SumoSprings Maxim Rear Helper Springs Installation - 2012 Ford F-53- Video

Speaker 1: Today on our 2012 Ford F-53 Chassis, we're installing SumoSprings Maxim Custom Helper Springs for the rear axle, part number SSR-180-54-1. This is what our springs are going to look like when they're installed. They're going to provide constant point of contact between your leaf spring and the side of your frame, so you'll have benefits for your SumoSprings throughout the entire suspension travel from fully extended to fully retracted. These springs can compress up to 80%, can provide varying amounts of load leveling carrying capacity. You'll have one on each side, so if you have an uneven load, you'll have one spring applying more pressure than the other to help balance that out. Additionally, it will help increase the smoothness of your ride, because you're going to have a proportional amount of spring tension the more it's compressed.It'll also help reduce sway, so if you're hitting any uneven pavement, these will help absorb some of that road shock and minimize the amount of sway you'd have and when wind is hitting up against the side of your motor home, these will also help working in conjunction with one another to help minimize that sway. more

Speaker 1: Today on our 2012 F-53 chassis we're going to be installing SumoSprings Rebel custom helper springs for the front axle, part number SSF-170-40-2. We've currently got our suspension completely suspended so you can see what our springs I'll look like. When you go over large bumps, they will be able to separate and they'll come right back together. The alignment pin here in the center will line right back up with the one above it.These jounce bumpers are going to provide additional cushion in the front of the your vehicle, giving you a smoother ride. They're additionally going to act as load leveling, so if you have a slightly uneven weight inside your vehicle, the SumoSprings will help work with one another to level your vehicle back out and maintain a more stable ride. Additionally, when you hit any potholes, it's going to absorb some of that impact so it'll help reduce driver fatigue when going down the road. more
