    Suspension helpers

    Recently installed some suspension helpers for those heavy loads, and it's a smooth ride now. But going down a rough road with pot holes I hear a popping sound. I was thinking about attaching the top part to the chassis, currently attached to the axle! (attached to the axle and attached to the chassis) would this work? The wet spots are WD40 and the black object is my exhaust axle dump! Thanks in advance

    Great condition, I know what the noise is, the diagram should help

    Because the top part of the suspension helpers is on the overload and that popping sound is it popping off, so I was going to attach the top part to the frame and hopefully that would resolve the issue!

    Had these on my 03'. I took them off in between hauls. They put the rear up a little higher than I like and screwed up the caster camber in my front end if I left em on. But they worked great with a truck full of wood. Or pullin the car trailer. Big difference. This truck. I'll do bags. No noise. And smoooooth ride. While the product is installed.
