Towzing - HD springs or ?

[hurseyc]

Hi,

2010 expedition 4wd limited, not air suspension.

I’m looking for something to help with rear end sag when towing a 26ft travel trailer.

It seems the choices are very limited.

So far I’ve only found the sumo springs spacers things.

I’m wondering if there are any other options out there. I figured for sure I could find a strut assembly with some HD springs but the only ones I’ve found include a lift which I don’t want/need.

Anyway, let me know if you have any suggestions.

Thanks!!!

Chris

Are you using a WD hitch with equalizer bars

Yes. I have an E2 WD hitch. Maybe it’s setup wrong?

When you set you hitch up Have the TT on level ground and level Measure from the ground to the top of the coupler and then set the ball to the same height or just slightly higher

Then hook up and see how much squat you have. Then adjust the equalizer bars to reduce the squat and get the TV and TT back to level

Let me know how you make out

You may also want to consider adding a sway bar when all is done.

Check your tongue weight of the trailer and make sure it’s 10-15% of the weight of the trailer. If not. Move some stuff around till it’s right. If possible. Otherwise adjust the WD hitch till the truck only squats about 3/4 of an inch from unloaded.
