Hi guys sorry dont check here often cause I don't have a ranger anymore. also was using my wife to post in Facebook and it looks like she incorrectly marked them as sold. I still have the shocks. They will be about 12lbs total so I checked the SC zip code and that was $24 thru fedex. Its...
The rears were the best bang for the buck. The fronts did get rid of the wallowing but I always thought that was tolerable. Biggest improvement from the fronts was getting rid of that nose dive when you touch the brakes. I got lazy and left the fronts on when I traded it otherwise Id sell you...

Sumo Springs SSR-141-40 1,000 lb capacity
4WD and 2WD applications. These are like new and were used for less than 1 month before I traded in the ranger. They did their job and improved towing and heavily loaded ride quality by...
About 7 months of use. I thought they were a good product similar to weathertech but cheaper. $80 OBO plus shipping. This is for front and rear.

These were on the truck since December '19 so about 7 months.
These were the best upgrade I made to the truck in terms of ride and handling but I traded her in so no longer need. There is some pitting due to a northeast winter but its superficial. Half price of new $100 for the pair plus...
So I would agree that the sumo springs helped out. Couldnt resist with free shipping, no tax and 10% off. But I would say the eibach rear shocks were the single biggest improvement. I also removed the spacer as they engage too early unloaded. Actually that spacer on the factory bump stops and...
Would your opinion be that the 1,500lb sumo's or the timbrens would be too much? I usually do not tow long distances but due to the 'Rona our family rented a lake house a few hours drive. I am taking the boat and not looking forward to it due to how floaty the rear is. I put in Eibach shocks...
Yes this is what I was getting at and also understand to be true. Insurance companies pay to the extent of your coverage whether you are overloaded, speeding, drunk, etc. They dont pay for any excess liabilities regardless of the nature of the accident. Ive never heard anything different...
I too recommend towing within stated limits but criminal charges and insurance deserted him for 14lbs over hitch weight when operating within all axle and gvwr's? Now I have heard it all. 14 lbs is like 2 gallons of gas and a good bowel movement. How did they establish that? Please tell us...
Noticed a lot of big RVs or heavy dual axle trailers on this thread lately. For all you folks pulling big loads, are you finding the rear too bouncy? I did see that in one post and complained about it myself several months ago. Been trying to figure out if its my trailer setup or a common...
This is an excellent post as an engineer myself I can appreciate. However, I am electrical by degree, so if I weigh in on this and am wrong I have a built in excuse :sunglasses:
As you point out at the end this is very nuanced. We would have to know the Cd for the entire rig, not just the...
This is a myth I've seen repeated on a few forums. If you read your policy documents you'll probably see that the only way you are not covered is if you are attempting to outrun police. Your insurance covers negligence....if insurance only covered people when they are doing things the way they...
Jeeze Louise. 5 pages of this thread, just take the trailer you want to buy to a scale. If the dealer cant let you do that, they cant have a sale, simple. The dealership is not lying to you....they dont know exactly what it weighs. Neither does that gadget you just bought. You would have...
Yes I agree the ride is definitely better with the eibach rears. I notice mostly at very slow speeds i.e. navigating thru a bumpy parking lot or turning into a driveway the dampening is much improved whereas stock dampening felt non existent and you would get tossed around a lot. Also highway...
Hi Jason I was the person who received four rear shocks. Emailed you guys on the 23rd and have not heard back. I realize that perhaps nothing can get done if Eibach is shut down for the holidays but can you check the emails and send me some sort of acknowledgement of the issue? Order number...
