Firestone Coil-Rite Air Helper Springs - Rear Axle
Excellent product. I have used this brand before on a similar vehicle. Easy install. Prevents sag in the rear end while under load from either luggage or a trailer. Fast shipping. Great price. Thank you very much !!
Super product quality and incredible customer service from etrailer. It is a company you want to keep on your favorites list. I had a bit of difficulty getting the suspension bags to stop leaking, but that was my fault. You have to get the tubing cut squarely or it won't seat properly into the fittings on the airbags and they will leak. Once I learned that lesson, the fix was simple and no problems since. I highly recommend this product.

Coil SumoSprings Custom Helper Springs for Coil Spring Suspension - Front or Rear Axle
Ok installed outside january 27th. Temp 10 degree windchill -5. I used canola oil since it stays slippery when cold. I recommend taking off the tires. Also wirebrush the coil spring to get rust and debris off. Coat coil spring in canola oil. Also 1997 crv rear will require about 3/4"-1" off of the helper spring before hand. The driver side took 15-20 mins the passenger less than 5. My car rear was sagging it sits level or slightly above level now in the rear. Mileage of vehicle is 73k shocks struts and springs are original. Curt class 3 hitch is also installed on vehicle. I am curious to see how it does while pulling a 5x8 trailer. Overall seems good only time will tell. Wondering how installing two on a side would do?
Working well to help us deal with a heavy trailer.

Firestone Coil-Rite Air Helper Springs - Rear Axle
Great as always, this is my second Firestone Coil-Rite. I had one on my crown vic before and they work great, pretty straight forward install. If you’re lazy like me and didn’t want to remove the shocks then use wd40 to help slip it in between
Exactly what I needed, work great, Thank You etrailer.com!

SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs - Rear Axle
These Sumo Springs were easy to install, even for a 70 year old guy. I tow a 7,000lb camper and even tho I have a nice WDH I still had som sag on my Tundra. These helped level it out when towing and got rid of “some” of the bounce. They were really a godsend when I overloaded the bed with about 2,000lbs of pavers. That weight squished the Sumos significantly but the truck drove and rode great. Better and less expensive than air bags.
Pros: Easy install Drastically helps with sag when towing trailers Cons: Things feel more bouncy in the back when not loaded They get hard as a rock in freezing temperatures (i.e. 15*F = no rear suspension) No option to unscrew the spring and replace with bump stop for the winter (at least that I can find, tell me if they make one).

Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs - Rear Axle
Excellent material and the installation instructions were very clear and to the point with the best pictures that coincided with the written material. Only took me 2.5 hours from the start of assembling the air bags with the hardware on the workbench to putting away my tools! This is on my '04 dodge 3500 dually that will be handling my new Host Mammoth Slide in Camper that will set at apprx. 5000 lbs.! Beautiful to maintain level truck and to know that the springs are not collapsed and wearing them down prematurely as well as providing a safe handling truck when on the road.
This is a great system that is pretty easy to install for the average garage mechanic. Installed on a 2018 Ram Mega Cab with 6.7. 30 PSI in the bags and it eliminates the squat when pulling my fifth wheel. One year in and still works great with no air loss from week to week. In my opinion upgrading to the braided lines was just inexpensive insurance.
What our customers are saying:
"WOW! I am impressed! I called to place my order and real person answered, spoke perfect English, albeit a slight southern accent, and my order was sent within a day, shipped quickly and I had it a few days later. I saved over a hundred dollars over local and installed it my self. I cant imagine how that they could do any better. THANKS!"
