Sumo springs?..or any super springs products

Anyone have sumo springs from super springs? I'm thinking of getting them for all 4 corners of my 4500. Talked to the president of the company today, really sounds like a great product. I'm trying to improve the empty/light load ride. They sound better than timbrens, but still handle weight that is needed.

Any thoughts?

super springs -

I've been favorably impressed with the super springs overloads on my 3500 - definitely smoothed out the ride empty, quite a noticeable difference going over some construction zones on I-5 when I put them on, pretty clean A/B comparison.

Can't comment on ride changes at full load, never had the truck loaded all the way up before installing them.

best - Bill

I know they make some great products, I an just hoping to hear if anyone has or knows someone with the sumo springs. I want to get them for the front axle as well. Just help empty-light loads, heavy I'm totally fine in the rear axle.

I didn't see a front application for our HD trucks. Are they coming soon or just not listed? If they help level the front I'd love to give them a try since I lost 3/4" adding the bumper and winch to my truck!

Yes they make fronts, Im pretty sure I saw on thier website. If you look them up and order you'll find them for front and rear. I haven't ordered mine yet, but will update when I get them installed.

I had them on my truck for more than a year while my front end was all stock. It really improved the ride (mostly likely due to the fact my shocks were shot before 20K). But once I replaced the front shocks and the steering gear I noticed a stronger side to side lurching. So I took them off and I found the ride better without them. I never had any extra weight up front so I don't know how they handle with while loaded. Great product though. I never tried the rear ones because I installed airbags right after buying the truck.

Are the summo springs better than the stock springs (rear) for towing and leveling the heavy load.

I have sumo springs on the front of my 2005-2500 and love them off roading. NO bottoming out hard, that is the KEY for me. Without them on stock suspension, it was horrible. Not sure the dealio on a 2012, but they are cheap and easy to install.
