Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Rear Axle Ultimate Air Helper Springs Installation - 2020 Ford F-150- Video
Hey guys, it's Jake here with etrailer. Today we have a 2020 Ford F-150, and we're gonna be taking a look at and I'm gonna show you how to install the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs. What air helper springs are designed to do is provide support in the rear end of your truck when you're hauling either a heavy load in the bed, or from the hitch on the back. There's a couple different reasons of why this is a really good addition to your vehicle is if you have a smaller fifth wheel camper, or a travel trailer that you're pulling, maybe a car trailer, something like that, that your truck is constantly sagging in the rear, making it uncomfortable to drive. This is designed to bring it back up to where the truck is level. It's not necessarily designed to bring it back up to factory ride height, because at that point, you've got a little too much air in it. more

Firestone Ride-Rite Rear Axle Air Helper Springs Installation - 2023 Chevrolet Silverado 3500- Video
Hey guys, it's Jake here with etrailer. Today, we have a 2023 Chevy Silverado 3500, and we're gonna be taking a look at and I'm gonna show you how to install the Firestone Ride-Rite Airbags. There's a lot of different reasons why you might be wanting to add a set of airbags to your truck. The specific reason we have here is our driver here is a hotshot driver, which means he just delivers small LTL loads for different companies and stuff. So he's pulling a 50-foot gooseneck trailer and he needs support in the rear end of his truck. The factory suspension, even though this is a 3500, they do come pretty stiff, but once you get closer to that max capacity to the truck, the back end of the truck starts to sag pretty good. more

Hello neighbors, it's Brad here at etrailer and today we're taking a look at installing the Sumo Springs Maxim Rear Helper Springs on a 2013 Fleetwood Bounder Classic. Now adding these to your RV is really just gonna give you a much better ride overall. And having better handling, especially with something that's maintenance free is really great because every time you drive your RV, you're gonna notice the difference and the factory ride is, it feels top heavy on the suspension, you know, it doesn't really work a whole lot, and this is really just gonna supplement all that weight of our RV by going in between our leaf springs and mounting up to the frame, so this is gonna add extra cushion and these are made to absorb quite a bit. So those harsh bumps will be absorbed, but also heavier loads. These are progressive, so as you add weight, these are gonna fight back and give your suspension a fighting chance. They also help with sway side to side, because as you lean one side, these are gonna fight back, bringing the vehicle back to a nice flat plane and get your responsive steering back. more

Hello neighbors, it's Brad here at etrailer, and today we're taking a look at installing the SumoSprings Rebel Custom Helper Springs on a 2013 Fleetwood Bounder Classic. Adding these to your front suspension is going to add a lot of added benefits, not just supporting weight, but also it's gonna allow for sway to be reduced, and it's gonna get a little bit more planted of a feel as you drive, meaning you're gonna get more steering feedback and it's gonna just have a little bit quicker steering response, and overall, it's gonna be a little bit more comfortable because this is gonna absorb a lot of that shock. Your factory jounce bumpers are pretty short. So for that to actually make contact, it takes quite a bit of pretty heavy hits on the road for that to even do anything where these engage pretty quickly. And that's the great part too is this two piece design allows for this to really open up. So your suspension is still able to move quite a bit without limiting the travel, but you get all the added benefit of that cushioning as well as the weight support. more

Now, as you no doubt know a heavy front load can cause front end sag as your factory suspension compresses under the weight of the load. So what this means is that the front axle is trying to support not only the extra load, but also the weight of your vehicle. And because there is less weight on your rear axle your rear tires make less contact with the road which causes problems with traction, steering and braking. more

Now, as you probably know, when towing or hauling a heavy load, you may encounter a number of problems that can make your driving experience difficult or dangerous, such as sway, body roll, or bottoming out. So when your vehicle is weighted down, your factory leaf springs can't counteract these problems to the extent that they are supposed to. The weight will overpower your leaf springs and cause them to twist or flatten out, and when that happens, they cannot support, level, or stabilize your vehicle effectively. more

Hey guys, this is Jake here with etrailer.com. Today we have a 2018 GMC Sierra 2500 and we're gonna be taking a look at and I'm gonna show you how to install the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 airbags. A prime example of why you should get a set of airbags is right behind us. We have a truck here that tows a fifth-wheel camper and the pin weight on it is about 2,000 pounds. That is a lot of weight pushing down on the bed of this truck. So adding a set of airbags, they will sit in between the axle of your truck in the frame and they're designed to take some of the weight so that your vehicle suspension doesn't have to do all the work. more

Hello neighbors, it's Brad here at etrailer, and today, we're taking a look and installing these SumoSprings Front helper springs for coil suspension on the front axle of a 2019 Winnebago Travato. Now, the ProMaster 3500s, you see a lot of times, as work vans or delivery vans, but you can see here, we have it in the van life configuration. And so, either way, you're gonna have weight associated with it, and that really means that this already fairly tall vehicle just feels a little bit more top heavy. And as far as steering, it's kind of numb from the factory, and adding weight's just gonna make it that much worse. So, adding these is not only going to just fill the void in the spring, and really help supplement it, it's gonna just give you that better overall handling, and just better steering feel throughout, not only just parking lots, but out on the highway, and that's kind of a great thing to have, and especially in something like this. It's kind of a big sail out on the highway, so if you can kind of reduce some of that sway side to side, it's gonna be a great addition, and you're really gonna notice it every time you drive. more

Air Lift 1000 Rear Coil Springs Air Helper Springs Installation - 2019 Nissan Pathfinder- Video
Hello neighbors, it's Brad here at etrailer, and today we're taking a look and installing the Air Lift 1000 rear air helper bags on a 2019 Nissan Pathfinder. Now our neighbor today is putting airbags on their suspension, and that's because they tow a trailer so that tongue weight pushes down and it causes the Pathfinder to squat down, which this is not exactly the heaviest duty towing but to have those airbags to help that just kinda lift that back up, it's gonna make the Pathfinder feel like it can tow it a little bit better, because you're supplementing the suspension with a thousand pounds of load capacity. So that's really gonna help this out. And another application, or a few different applications would be if you take this on vacation and you load up a cargo carrier or if you have a mobility scooter or even a heavy bike rack, sometimes that's just gonna squat down and you're not gonna get a great ride. So adding a little bit of air to your bags will help supplement that, giving you a better driving experience. And this is what your airbags will look like when they're installed. more

Hi there, I'm Michael with etrailer.com. Today, we're gonna take a quick look at this SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs set. This is gonna help improve your driver control and comfort by upgrading the rear suspension on your 2016 and newer Nissan Frontier or Toyota Tacoma. This is going to replace your factory bump stops. It's gonna help to absorb bumps and shocks and minimize your sway to help keep your vehicle level as you're towing or hauling a heavy load. Now, most people are familiar when you're talking about suspension enhancement, they think of airbags and obviously these are not airbags, so there's gonna be some benefits and some drawbacks when you compare the two, but one major difference is that these are going to be very minimal maintenance, really no maintenance at all. more

SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs Installation - 2018 Chevrolet Silverado 2500- Video
Hello, neighbors. It's Brad here at etrailer, and today, we're taking a look at installing these SumoSprings solo custom helper springs for the rear axle on a 2018 Chevy Silverado 2500. Now, these have a 1500 pound capacity, and that's not necessarily going to add capacity to your truck, it's kind of what they're rated for as far as what weight you'll be using. So, if you have a payload in the back of the truck that's about 1500, that's gonna be perfect. Or if you have a fifth wheel or a trailer that puts a decent amount of tongue weight on your truck, this is gonna help regardless. And really, the great part about these is they engage quicker than your factory jounce bumpers and they're also progressive. more

Review of Timbren Vehicle Suspension - Front Axle Suspension Enhancement System - TFF700- Video
Hi, everybody, Andy here with etrailer.com. And today, we're gonna take a look at this Timbren front axle suspension enhancement system. Now, these are custom-fit springs that are designed to fit your 1967 to 1999 Ford F-600 and F-700.

Overall vehicle handling, traction, steering, and braking is going to be negatively affected, but the resistance from these Timbren suspension enhancement springs are going to work with your factory suspension to keep your vehicle level and improve your driving experience. more
