Suspension Enhancement ?

[jhol]

OK,

I have a 2003 Chevy Silverado half ton extended cab, I just got a nice fiberglass topper and now when I hook up my boat (1800 Pro-v) and load up the truck I have a lot of squatting. I have been looking on the internet and really like the Timbren SES system. Has any one installed one or have any reviews for me on how well they actually work? Any other advice from people with similar situations would be great.

Thanks

Jon

Box,

That is exactly what I wanted to hear, thanks a ton for the review. If you can, would you post what/where you ordered them from.

Thanks again!

Hmmm, I honestly can't recall where, but truckspring d0t com seems familiar. I know it was about the cheapest place, but all were about the same price, within a few dollars. This place just seemed like the place that "looked" the most reputable.

I called them twice, as the first time they sent the wrong part number, and I returned it and they sent new one even before they got the wrong one back. Then I had question, and they helped me figure what I was doing wrong. (Basically that was when I learned that trucks use the old mounts minus the stops, and some you must remove the whole mount - that was the case for me, I had to remove the whole mount, not just the stop.)

It will cure your sag, but it will make it stiffer. Ideally I would get new springs for when the load is light, AND have the SES for when you really load it on, and have trailer, etc. But I don't mind the ride, feels like a truck

I recently installed an air bag suspension helper system on my buddy's truck. It kind of gives you the best of both worlds. The same nice ride when you dont need it, with an onboard compressor to air it up to whatever stiffness required even on the fly. These are very sturdy bags and will easily hold as much weight as the truck is designed to handle. Pretty slick system and far superior to the old air shock systems for cars. I think he paid under 300 for the kit. Worth a look anyway...
