Description

Beef up your rig for heavy towing, squat-free hauling and enhanced handling. Like super powers for your suspension, SuperSprings bolt right over your factory leaf-spring pack to eliminate sag, sway and wheel hop. Forget complex systems and cheap overload bumpers, SuperSprings combine the power of air bags, performance shocks and a sway bar in one super spring.

Unlike other systems, SuperSprings are always poised for action. Without a load, your vehicle maintains its smooth factory ride. When you hitch up a trailer, load up the bed or lay into a corner, SuperSprings' progressive action automatically kicks-in. The rolling shackles and tapered ends give you the control, while the wide middle handles the heavy stuff.

Depending on your needs, you choose between light or heavy-duty SuperSprings. And, since they bolt to your leaf springs, your SuperSprings install in less than an hour and require no drilling or cutting. Best yet, your SuperSprings are backed by a Lifetime Warranty.

Although I have yet to put the springs to test trial, the installation was a breeze with just a few hand tools. Also your vehicle will raise slightly.

I love these springs. I had them for 11 years on my previous van, so naturally when I purchased my new one I put them on immediately. Great product.

I installed the supersprings on a 2011 Chevy 2500HD truck and the resulting ride was a little bit harder but not objectionable even with the bed empty. The U-bolts provided with the MX-KT kit are 5" but should be 4.5" and protrude to within 1/4" of the brake hose. There is a shackle bolt for the left front shackle that also is 5" long and I had to use a cutoff wheel to remove 1/2 an inch. Otherwise the bolt hit against the brake hose pushing it to the side and would have been abrading the hose with every movement of the rear axle. The directions state that all that is needed is a 1-1/16" and a 1-1/8" socket and a sturdy clamp which is inaccurate. The two sockets are needed for the e shackle bolt and nuts but a 3/4" or 19mm deep socket is needed for the U-bolts for the mounting kit and I needed pry bar to get the hold-down clamps into position. I also found it necessary to use a scissor jack to raise up the rear frame of the truck to partially raise the truck's leaf springs and reduce the force needed by the C-clamp to bend the supersprings. As it was with the frame raised I still needed a very large 8" C clamp to span the gap between the two sets of springs and move the end of the spring down so that the shackle bolt could be put into position. With the hold-down clamps two 1/2" wrenches are needed for its bolt and nut. The position of the clamp is such that a socket wrench will not fit and only two wrenches can be used. The supersprings can be slid in over the tires and into position. The videos on the Web show the springs being mounted with the tires removed but that adds to the work with the need to remove the 16 wheel nuts and then later screw them back on and torque them properly. It is not necessary to remove the tires to mount the springs with the stock rims and tires. After I was done with installing the springs I went back and taped the ABS sensor cable so they would not rest against the supersprings and be damaged. There are also places where I will be adding cable shielding to

Just added a gooseneck hitch so I wanted to keep the truck from sagging under the trailer load. Factory rating is around 2000# payload. WIth the SSA28, it's 3500#. Should be perfect for moving trailers of hay. I had Supersprings for about 8 years on my last pickup without trouble.

I have just finished installing my supersprings on my new 2011 chevy silverado. I pull a small 6ft. by 12ft. trailer for my tile business. The supersprings eliminate the 'sag' when pulling my trailer. Thanks,again Supersprings.

Bought these Super Springs in the Light Duty version for my 2000 Ford E150 Conversion van to be able to tow our 18ft. Sea Ray boat without the horrible front-to-rear bounce. I know conversion vans are more for cruising, but it's the only vehicle we own with enough engine to tow as well. Installation was easy, took about an hour. Only raised the rear about an inch or so, and I don't feel any major ill effect for everyday driving. But with the boat hooked up it definitely took away some of the bounce. If anyone has a bigger boat than an 18 footer I would recommend going with the Heavy Duty springs in a similar towing setup.

SuperSprings mounting brackets have some sharp edges that resulted in a nasty cut when I removed them from the box. I had to file the sharp edges and repaint the brackets. The SuperSprings themselves raised the back of my pickup, which was an unwanted result. It would have been better to add a leaf spring. However, SuperSpring installation was easy inexpensive, and it did stiffen the suspension in my 1999 Chevy Silverado regular cab pickup. The SuperSprings did not improve the lateral sway tendencies of the truck, though, which I was hoping that the additional springs would help to alleviate.

I gave these springs a good to excellent review because I haven't had enough use/time with them to rate them higher. The springs are easy to install. The hardest part was jacking up the truck & removing the wheels. I have a truck camper and possibly should've gone up to the higher rated spring. What has pleasantly surprised me is sway reduction. Going around sharp corners with the truck camper is nice now. The top heavy feeling from the truck camper on the truck is gone. Ordering from AutoAnything was fast,friendly & priced competitively (in fact I've been looking at Supersprings for over a year and their price was the lowest I found). I would use their service again.

My 2011 F150 had considerable rear-end sag and loss of handling when towing our travel trailer. Towing was near hazardous because of this. When researching solutions, I ran across SuperSprings on AutoAnything.com. After much research and speaking with Gerry at SuperSprings to clear up any questions, I made the purchase. (Gerry's the company CEO and a really helpful guy. His customer service and technical assistance are top notch! His number and e-mail are on their web site. He answers both.) Installing these was easy. It took more time to jack the truck up and down than install the springs. The result: minimal sag, better handling, reduced sway, and no more white knuckles.
