Improves suspension, handling and safety. Progressive spring rate. Provides additional support as needed so you always have a smooth, comfortable ride.by: John03/01/2023
Very easy to install plan taking big trip in a few months can’t wait to see how they handle. Update to follow.
by: Vince05/29/2024
Sumo springs work great. I was a little skeptical if they would work since the Dexter 5100 lb axles on my trailer have two ribs going across them, I'm assuming for strength. The sumo spring bracket was just wide enough to sit on top of the rib center point. The bracket could be 1/2" wider, it would help. I tapped the bracket in and torqued it. As you can see it didn't go in all the way but seems to be ok. Took a road trip, highway, gravel and a rough forest road. Checked the torque after the trip and nothing moved. Sumo springs helped with the trailer sway and should take some load off the springs and shackles. I am pleased so far with this product.
by: William07/03/2024
Not really happy with the product. It just made the ride firmer and rougher. I should have gotten the add on shock kit instead. I'll be removing and selling the Sumo Springs.
by: Philip H01/05/2024
Only 4 stars since I have only used them on one RV trip so far. I installed these in conjunction with an equalizer upgrade (Morryde SRE 4000) on my 2019 Grand Design Reflection TT. For the one trip I have been on, I liked how these helped cushion the ride of the trailer. I would certainly buy them again.
by: Nicholas 06/29/2024
Easy to install. It definitely improves the ride by absorbing road vibrations and bumps. Also adds some left and right stability
by: Tom01/24/2024
2020 Cyclone 3 axle toy hauler. Can definitely tell a big difference in how quick the trailer settles down over large bumps like bridge transitions. Things inside seem to travel better.
by: Rod05/09/2023
My toy hauler when loaded maxes out the 2 8000# axels. These Sumo Springs stop the over travel of the suspension and stops the spring sag that these trailers are noted for. The ride is more under control and there is less effect on the contents.
by: John 11/20/2022
We have a Grand Design Reflection 5th wheel with the refridgerator on the rear wall, and we kept having issues with the fridge doors coming open during bumpy travel, so we installed the Sumo Springs based on a number of other reviews that indicated it would restrict the trailers bouncing. Total success, we have not had the doors open since the install, and generally feel less bouncing as we travel. The trailer also has less bounce when stationary, an added benefit.

No problems at all, everything I said in first review remains, the refrigerator doors stay closed, despite some very bumpy roads, and we travel about 6 month each year in 5th wheel!

@John We're happy to hear that, thank you for checking back in!

We purchased these SumoSprings for our 2019 Heartland Fuel 250 knowing that they would not fit our leaf spring top plates, but I knew I could modify the mounting bracket to accommodate our RV. For anyone who has Dexter axles with shocks, you most likely have a 5-1/2” wide leaf spring top plate. If you are handy and have an acetylene torch or map gas you can simply heat and bend the inside bracket, drill a 1/2” hole and through bolt it to an existing hole in the top plate. I actually think this is a more secure install. Overall, it would be nice if there was an exact fit for our Rv, but it was an easy fix. Great product.
by: Steven 03/27/2024
Delivered on time and all the parts were there! They were easy to install and give the leaf springs the leaf springs the help they needed. Our camper has less felt recoil on bumps and pot holes which makes for an easier day traveling.
by: JD05/14/2024
They were very easy to install and seem to provide additional stability on turns and over rough spots on the road. So far I would say they work as advertised. As usual etrailer is great to work with and shipping is fast.
by: Larry 02/12/2024
Easy to install only a couple hours for both axles. A more stable ride and haven’t broke any leaf springs on these great American highways, by the way I installed them on a 38’ 5th wheel rv.
by: Gary12/15/2022
etrailer provides quality products you can trust. Sumo springs made a big difference in the ride quality of my fifth wheel going down the road. It helped with chucking and takes some of the roughness out of the roads. Items in the cupboards are still a mess when we get to our destination, but less of a mess. Highly recommend!!
by: Silva01/22/2023
Installed on 2022 Jayco NorthPoint 310RLTS. Took them on their maiden voyage east on 138, south on 15 and 215 into Santee Lakes, Ca. Appears they have mitigated some of the rebound caused by springs, however don't expect it to eliminate all. There was still at times significant "bouncing" when transitioning bridge gaps or wonderful LA / San Bernardino Freeways.
Having had Timbren springs on my last truck and really enjoying the support, wondering now if I should have gone with them?
Bottom line, they WORK, just less than I would of expected. But then again, my expectations might have been too high.
by: John 06/09/2024
Very easy installation

The SumoSprings work great made my trailer roll smoother down the road
by: Steve05/23/2022
So far so good. Easy install. Used trailer jacks to give me the 1/2-1” of lift required to install these. Definitely feel the difference in stability/lean when going around corners and hitting bumps. Will be putting a few thousand miles on this summer and these will provide some peace of mind knowing the suspension system isn’t taking as bad of a beating. A little pricey for rubber springs especially since I need four, but sometimes peace of mind comes at a price.
by: Cenvalleysteel11/04/2022
Very easy to install. The rough and uneven road and ride on our fifth wheel is vastly improved.

Still working great.
by: Lynn10/19/2023
The springs do work I'm not sure how much they help. I take a trip across the USA every year. (10K miles) The roads are rough. I might be expecting too much, still have cabinet doors come open. I do feel they support the suspension.
by: David 06/12/2024
Great product, continues to do job inte nded
by: Christopher09/07/2023
I bought these believing I needed them for the leaf springs. I had set them aside so I could return them. Naturally, I forgot about them and a year later I contact the company and they tell me they won’t return them and suggest I sell them on social media. I have bought two leaf spring kits and due to my recent interactions I will never buy another set or recommend them to anyone. Very disappointed.
by: Dan 11/14/2023
A must have for additional support for the leaf springs and makes the towing experience much smoother
by: Timothy 10/20/2023
Installation was very simple. I didn't need to relocate a gas line which made the job even easier. It took me longer to crawl under the trailer than it took to install them. I have not towed yet, but I'm confident they will make a huge improvement on the trip from Michigan to Texas.
by: Matt 12/18/2023
Installing the products went about as well as hoped. The hardest parts were keeping them on the desired location on the springs.
by: Tim Gallagher07/14/2021
I have ordered a couple items from etrailer and always have a good experience. This item was packaged properly and easy to install. The instructions were easy to follow and there was extra hardware in case it was needed. I haven’t towed it with them installed yet, but I feel confident they will work as advertised.

- MORryde CRE3000 Equalizers, X-Factor Cross Members & SumoSprings For 2020 Keystone Outback 291UBHThank you for the images. The MORryde Rubber Equalizers # MR87ZR are the correct set for your 2020 Keystone Outback Ultra-Lite 291UBH. You will pair this with the MORryde Suspension Upgrade Kit # MR46ZR. Instead of using the wet bolts included with the upgrade kit you will use the wet bolts included with the 3 MORryde X-Factor Crossmembers # MR33WR. You are still able to use 2 sets of the SumoSprings Trailer Helper Springs # SS26MV with your suspension. These kits include line relocation...

- Replacement Bearings for a Dexter 7,000 lbs Axle and Wet Bolts for a Morryde CRE 3000I sure can! To replace the bearings in your 2023 Grand Design with Dexter 7,000 lbs axles you will need the following parts: Inner Bearing - Replacement Trailer Hub Bearing item # 25580 Outer Bearing - Replacement Trailer Hub Bearing item # 14125A These part numbers are for the individual replacement bearings. We do have options for complete kits that also include the races and grease seals, however there's two options for grease seals on Dexter 7,000 lbs axles. You will want to use...

- Will Over/Under Kit Work With MORryde X-Factor CrossmemberHey Peyton, Yes, those things are all indeed compatible as the crossmember won't come into contact with the over/under kit. As for the correct kit, that depends on the size of your Keystone Cougar's axles. For 2-3/8" diameter axles use the Dexter Trailer Springs Over-Under Conversion Kit # K71-384-00; for 3" diameter axles use the Dexter Trailer Springs Over-Under Conversion Kit # K71-385-00. Then you can use the SumoSprings but you need to have between 5-5/16" and 6-1/2" of clearance...
view full answer... - Will The SumoSprings Trailer Helper Springs Fit A 2022 Jayco North Point 382FLRB 5th Wheel The SumoSprings Trailer Helper Springs w/ Line Relocation Bracket # SS26MV could possibly be the correct kit for your 2022 Jayco North Point 382FLRB 5th wheel, you'll just need to verify the orientation of your leaf springs to the axles. The # SS26MV are designed for overslung axles, which means that the leaf springs will sit on top of the axle. If you have underslung axles (leaf springs below the axle) then you'll just need part # SS33HR instead. These kits are for a single axle only...

- Correct SumoSprings For 2021 Grand Design Solitude 380FL With Tandem 7000lb AxlesI would be happy to help! Since your 2021 Grand Design Solitude 380FL has tandem 7000lb axles you will need either the SumoSprings Trailer Helper Springs # SS26MV if your trailer has overslung leaf springs (leaf springs on top of the axles) or the # SS33HR if your trailer has underslung leaf springs (leaf springs underneath the axles). For your trailer you will need two kits, one for each axle. I included a video review of the products mentioned for you to take a look at.
view full answer... - Why Is It Not Recommended To Step Up to 8,000LB Leaf Springs Instead of 7,000LB Leaf Springs? We do not recommend moving from 7,000lb # e64SR to 8,000lb # DX74XR leaf springs as this creates a stiffer ride with more bounce. This causes more shock to transfer inside your RV which can cause damage to the trim and electronics. Instead I recommend adding the SumoSprings # SS26MV for overslung axles or # SS33HR for underslung axles. These help to absorb shock from transferring in your trailer as well as give you more support to reduce sag in the leaf springs. Also adding heavier leaf...

The main issue I see is your Shackle Strap # TRSL313 is wearing out. I can see a bit of the hole on the top left strap which means the holes in the strap are being elongated. I recommend replacing these immediately with one of the following kits.

- MORryde Suspension Kit, Shackle Straps & SumoSprings For 6k Axles w/ 35 WheelbaseI certainly don't blame you for wanting to get it right the first time, and the answer to each of your questions is yes, it will all work together, though there are a couple of things you'll want to be certain to verify. But first, for the equalizer upgrade and crossbeam, for your 35" wheelbase (which you measured correctly from center to center of your wheels) you do have the correct part for your 6k axles: - MORryde AllTrek 4000 Equalizers for Tandem Axle Trailers # MR29DR With that,...
view full answer... - Are There Extra Spacers for the SumoSprings Trailer Helper SpringsI do have an option for you but SuperSprings does not offer any additional spacers for the SumoSprings Trailer Helper Springs part # SS26MV. That said, we do still have spacers that will work for this, the Timbren Spacer part # A25723-90AH00 for 1" or part # TA25722-90P00. These won't be the exact same as the ones that came with this kit but they will still work well. In regards to the carriage bolts, you'll need to source this locally from a hardware store.

You currently have a standard # TREQ104 equalizer on the trailer. That means the best fit is going to be the Dexter E-Z Flex Suspension Kit # K71-652-00. This includes the upgraded shackles, wet bolts, and bushing so there is no need to purchase them separately. I have this kit on my Jayco which you can see in the installation video below. For the SumoSprings you will need the #...
view full answer... - Suspension Enhancement For a 2021 Grand Design Momentum 353G With 7,000LB Dexter AxlesFirst I recommend the SumoSprings Trailer Helper Springs # SS26MV be added to your axles. As these are designed for a single axle you will need 2 of the kits. It seems strange that the springs would be damaged as they are not that old and are likely carrying a lot of weight. These helper springs will help relieve some of the weight and provide some additional support to your leaf springs. As they springs are progressive they also help to reduce a lot of the shock that is transferred through...
view full answer... - Parts Needed For Reducing 7,000LB Leaf Springs On a 2021 Keystone Carbon From FlatteningI do have a recommendation for you as switching out all your leaf springs on your 2021 Keystone Carbon 358 is a big undertaking. The SumoSprings Trailer Helper Springs # SS26MV are designed to work on 5,000lb to 8,000lb trailer axles and each set provides 900lbs or capacity at 50% compression. These springs are also progressive so they will help to absorb road shock while also providing support to your leaf springs giving a smoother ride inside your trailer to reduce the odds of damage...
view full answer... - Will SumoSprings Trailer Helper Springs Increase Space Between Frame and AxleThe SumoSprings Trailer Helper Springs typically install compressed so they do tend to provide more space between the frame and axle in most cases but not by much and this is not really the goal of the system. If you don't have enough space between the frame and axle then this may be due to worn out leaf springs so I recommend checking this but I have attached the SumoSpring options below which are based on axle type and capacity.

If your leaf springs sit below the axles then you'll need the SumoSprings Trailer Helper Springs w/ Line Relocation Bracket # SS33HR. Timbren does offer a few different options for leaf spring suspensions but you won't be able to use both the SumoSprings and Timbrens because they both mount in the same spot.

Based on that it looks like you have the part # LC279688. Based on that the best recommendation I can make to replace them would be the EZ Flex part # K71-653-00 which has same capacity and dimensions but is known to be more reliable than other options. We don't have air bag kits that fit your trailer but we do have suspension enhancement kits that would fit like the SumoSprings part # SS26MV which...

- Recommended Sumo Springs for a 2022 Grand Design Reflection 5th WheelFor your 2022 Grand Design Reflection has overslung axle which means your springs sit over your axle, then you can use the SumoSprings Trailer Helper Springs w/ Line Relocation Bracket # SS26MV. If you have underslung axles meaning your springs sit under your axles, then you'd need the SumoSprings Trailer Helper Springs w/ Line Relocation Bracket # SS33HR instead. These springs will work with 5,000 to 8,000 lbs, tandem axles, and has a simple no drill install.

If you are trying to gain some lift you will want to use a Lift Kit # RR23QX or if your trailer is experiencing sag due to weight adding a couple sets of the SumoSprings Trailer Helper Springs # SS26MV will help to support the weight and reduce sag. The Roadmaster Comfort Ride # RM-2460-50 was designed with the resistance of the shocks in mind and not an additional spring so they are not going to be strong enough for a type of coil over shock.

You will need one kit per axle. I have linked a picture that will show you what these springs look like installed.

- Why Might a Furnace Make Clicking Sound but Never Turn OnIt's probably something with the pilot light. I had a similar problem in my house and it was the flame sensor. This actually happened on my water heater as well. The sensor was so corroded that it couldn't detect that a flame was present so it shut down the gas distribution as a safety mechanism so that the house didn't fill with gas. In both cases I was able to pull the sensor out and sand the corrosion off and it worked again.

Your 2019 Grand Design Momentum 351 M-Class has 7k overslung axles so the correct kit would be the # SS26MV. You will need one kit for each axle. The # TSS-107-40 you were looking at is designed for 3k-5k axles. These will give you the suspension support you're looking for while also reducing road shock and sway. Unlike air bags, they are maintenance free so you don't have to worry about them once they're...

You'll want to ensure that you choose your leaf springs based on the capacity of the axle, style (double-eye or slipper spring) and the length. For example, if you had a 7k axle with double-eye leaf springs and the measurement from eyelet to eyelet was 24-7/8" then you would want the # e64SR. The next step would be upgrading...

Ok it’s been a year and I have to say this product is definitely worth the investment. After taking it on a month long journey from Oklahoma to California I noticed improved handling especially along winding narrow roads. The trailer tracked well and I noticed less jolting. I also noticed the body roll diminished when in high winds or being passed by bigger trucks. Great product definitely recommend if you do allot of long hauls.
