Wanting to put these on my 2500 to help support cars with the minuteman slide in Wrecker unit. Springs are almost level right now.

Opinions on these? Seem cheaper than competitors and more load capacity.

I put a set of those on my truck because it used to settle way down when I towed my trailer.
What I like about them is that you can adjust them so they only add support when your springs need it. I set mine to where the cross bar on the shakle was just touching the spring. You can also use them to lift you spring up a little but I found it makes for a very stiff ride.

i run 5000# supersprings as well as firestone ride rites.it's a progressive ,same as the hellwig but a single spring on rollers.works fantastic.

Thank you for the replies, I did not know they were adjustable like that, thats awesome!

BC can you link me to the 5000# ones? are they 3 inch wide?

I've used them, there are a bunch of brands, but i'd only buy reputable ones. I've seen too many cheap sets snap either the spring itself, or the ubolts that hold it.

As was mentioned, you can set them up to have little to no assist when unloaded, or have a bit of preload. Just understand with any spring, it takes a bit of movement before full support is achieved. I set mine up before I replaced the packs to about an inch of preload. It didn't change the ride much when unloaded, but when I put trailers on it dropped about an inch less than before.

Does anyone have a good brand they've used, or links to any that are cheaper with a warranty just in case?
