Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System Installation - 2023 Honda Odyssey- Video
Hello neighbors, it's Brad here at etrailer and today we're taking a look at installing the Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement on a 2023 Honda Odyssey. Adding suspension enhancement to a minivan is something that a lot of people don't think about until you start to tow with one or have heavy loads in it and then all of a sudden the suspension really isn't made to have all that weight a lot of times. Or even if it is, it's not able to really utilize its full range of motion because the vehicle is going to sag. And partly it's because your jounce bumpers are just designed for comfort and that's a good thing. But when you're using it for towing that trailer or loading up the back of it, that's when you really start to feel that sag. And it's not just the vehicle sagging in the back that causes issues. more

Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System Installation - 2020 Honda Odyssey- Video
Hey everybody, Ryan here at etrailer. Today on our 2020 Honda Odyssey, we're gonna be showing you how to install the Timbren rear suspension enhancement system. But before we do that, why don't we check it out and make sure that this is something that's gonna work for you. These Odysseys are really capable vehicles and people use them to do a lot of different things, which does include towing some pretty heavy trailers and carrying around some pretty heavy loads. Well, the issue is with these vehicles, you gotta find that happy medium, that balance of stability, but still be able to maintain comfort when you're unloading, just driving around town. I think they did a pretty good job there, but the issue is once you start getting some weight back here, it really affects both of them. more

Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement Installation - 2016 Honda Odyssey- Video
Rob here etrailer.com, and today you're going to be taking a look at the Timbren rear suspension enhancement on our 2016 Honda Odyssey. Now rear suspension enhancements are going to come into play whenever you have a lot of cargo in the back or you're towing a trailer that's going to make the back end sag. Once you put all that weight in the back, it does cause the back end to push down. As you can see in the back here at the wheel well, it's actually getting really close to the tire, which means we're not going to have a lot of travel for our suspension, giving us a really rough ride and it's putting a lot of strain back here. But if we move to the front, we can see that it's actually pulling the front up, causing that teetering effect. Now what that's going to do is that's going to wear down our tires unevenly because our tires are going to get out of alignment.Not to mention our headlights are going to be pointing up, so potentially blinding people who are driving down the road, and our braking is going to be diminished because we don't have as much pressure on our contact on the front tires. more

Air Lift AirLift 1000 Air Helper Springs Installation - 2013 Honda Odyssey- Video
Speaker 1: Today on our 2013 Honda Odyssey, we're going to be installing Air Lift's AirLift 1000 Air Helper Springs, part number AL60815.These air bags are going to help support the load at the back of your vehicle. These air bags fit between your coil spring. While this doesn't increase the carrying capacity of your vehicle, it does help support loads of up to 1,000 pounds. Depending on the load that you're hauling, you can adjust the carrying capacity with various amounts of psi inflated inside your bag. This can be between 5 and 35 psi. The kit allows the air bags to be inflated independently from one another, and there's also a tee fitting included in the kit, so you can use one valve to control both and have equal inflation on both sides.Before we begin, we'll check some measurements on our vehicle while it's unloaded. more

Air Lift AirLift 1000 Air Helper Springs Installation - 2010 Honda Odyssey- Video
Speaker 1: Today on our 2010 Honda Odyssey, we'll be having a look at and showing you how to install the Air Lift 1000 air helper springs, part number AL60815. Here's what our air bags look like installed. Now, what's great about these air bags compared to other solutions on the market is these will give us a load leveling capacity of up to 1,000 pounds and they have the adjustability that we're looking for. So, if we only have a little bit of weight, we can add just a little bit of air to maintain our factory ride height, or if we have a lot of weight, we can jack up the air pressure a little bit to also maintain the factory ride height.These bags support air pressure between five and 35 PSI giving us the adjustment range that we're looking for to maintain the ride height, give us the comfort and the stability that we're looking for. Now, these air bags aren't going to give us an additional 1,000 pounds of load capacity. They are going to work in conjunction with our vehicle's factory suspension where we have up to 1,000 pounds of weight in the vehicle or a heavy trailer with a high tongue weight.Now, we can easily adjust the air pressure just by opening up our gas door here, removing the cap over our shrader valve and we can adjust it just like we can our tire air pressure, uses the same style fitting. more

Air Lift AirLift 1000 Air Helper Springs Installation - 2012 Honda Odyssey- Video
Today on our 2012 Honda Odyssey, we're going to be taking a look at and installing Air Lift1000 Air Helper Springs for the rear part number AL60815. Here's what these airbags are going to look like once they're installed on the vehicle. As you can see, they fit inside the existing coil springs from the factory suspension. These airbags are going to do a good job of helping to level out the load of the vehicle when you've got a heavy load in the back or if you're pulling a trailer that pulls the back end down a little bit because it's going to help support and not allow the spring to compresses much so therefore it doesn't sag and the rear end stays higher. When that rear end stays higher, what that does is help to reduce irregular tire wear. It makes it handle better because it's sitting at the factory right heighth and it's also helping maintain good control in the front for steering and braking but also keeping your headlights level so you can see the road at night. What's nice about this airbag is that you can adjust the air pressure inside to a minimum of 5 to a maximum of 35 psi which is going to help to level out your ride as you need it and give you the quality ride that you wanna have, whereas with some the other ones that only work as a bit more pressure on them, the ride quality isn't quite as good as when you can select what you want. Since these springs help to keep the factory coil springs from compressing as much with a load on 'em, it's going to help lengthen the life of the factory coil springs because it's going to help prevent them from sagging as much over the life of the vehicle. Let's take some measurements to see where our factory suspension sits unloaded, so if we measure at the top of the rear fender here, it's sitting right about 30 inches. more

Air Lift AirLift 1000 Air Helper Springs Installation - 2014 Honda Odyssey- Video
Today on this 2014 Honda Odyssey, we're going to review and install the Airlift 1000 Air Helper Spring for coil springs. Part number AL60815. As you see here, these springs actually reside inside the coil springs. Now, it does come with all the hardware, fitting, and airline needed to install. Here's our key right here that goes out to both airbags, and we go to the back of the van. We see one single valve right here that will allow you to insulate up both at the same time. Now lift capacity is going to be one thousand pounds for these air springs. We'll go ahead and show our stock measurement on our van first. more

Air Lift AirLift 1000 Air Helper Springs Installation - 2011 Honda Odyssey- Video
Today on our 2011 Honda Odyssey, we're going to be installing the Air Lift 1000 Air Helper Springs for the Rear Coil Springs, part number AL60815. Now let's go ahead and take our measurement before we put any weight in the vehicle and with the stock suspension. We're measuring from the ground to the bottom of the wheel well or just under 30 inches. Now we'll go ahead and take it out for a quick test drive and show you how the vehicle reacts. Now you'll notice how much body roll or lean the vehicle has when you make evasive turns, either to the right or to the left. Now with our airbags installed and the 300 lbs. in the cargo area, we have the same ride height as we did before we had any weight in the vehicle with the manufacturer suspension. We're just under 30 inches from the ground to the bottom of the wheel well. more
