Truck Camper Forum _ Support Equipment _ SumoSprings

Posted by: aqualung Jun 28 2010, 09:15 AM

Its time to add some airbags to the truck just to level it out and provide that extra stability. I've been looking around and found these SumoSprings. Its sounds like a great idea, the utility of airbags but without the need to put air in them or to worry about an air leak while on the road.

Has anyone tried these out? Should I go with front and rear Sumosprings? Should I stick to standard airbags?

Here's the link:

Thanks in advance for any feedback!

I've never seen those before, but they seem great!

I put Firestone airbags on my truck 3 years ago, and have been real happy with them..... I've never had a leak...Yet!

Another thing I tried before the airbags was a ''bolt on helper spring'' from Advance Auto..... It helps a lot, and can be put on in about 20 minutes, but my truck would still squat when I hooked my boat up..... So I bought the airbags.

Thanks for the link!!!.... I may try a set of those on my next truck, and sorry I couldn't help with the Sumosprings!

What is nice about Firestone's http://www.adventurerv.net/air-springs-bags-firestone-c-113_116_181.html is you can adjust each individual bag and deflate the bags when you have no load reducing the roughness of the ride. The Sumosprings are much like Timbrens basically an extension of the jounce bumper. Torklift makes http://www.adventurerv.net/torklift-stable-load-a7200-suspension-bumper-p-5290.html which hit each end of the overload spring as seen in the link provided.
