supersprings

[the6shooter]

Just finished installing a set of supersprings to my 2004 nissan titan, for towing the new tractor for this mowing season.
Haven't yet hooked up the trailer and load yet, but just driving around town there is definatly a difference.
A little stiffer, but handling has improved, they are not supposed to really work untill a load is placed on them, we will soon see.
I'll let everyone know how they perform.

I have superspings in my 2500hd and love them. I adjusted my to their tightest point and it really firms up the back end.

Do you have a link to what you put on the Titan? I have a 08 Titan and they upped the springs from 07 but I would still like to see what is out there if needed.

LoadandTow.com is where I got mine from, $485.10 w/ free shipping
they did stiffen up the backend, handling seems to be alot better

My 08 Titan already seems stiff to me. Comparing it to the numerous F-150's I have owned. There is a GVWR increase in 07 like I mentioned so we have different springs to start with. Never had any other brands of 1/2 tons but would say its ride is comparable to the 2005 Dmax I had. I tell people all the time I love the Titan but the down side is the 3/4 ton like ride and the poor fuel economy.

Thanks for the link.

Supersprings are excellent for "tightening up" the back end of a tow vehicle. I have them on my Dodge 2500 quad cab 4 X 4 V10. Pretty good ride unloaded as well.

Another term for these springs or others like them is " Progressive " .
I have had a set of those on my '84 ford F250 4x4 since '90 when we purchased it . As the load increases , the added spring takes up more and more . And as noted depending on how you install , they can feel normal with no weight or the truck can ride like it has no springs at all , which is how my old ford rides when empty .

Shove a pallet of retaining wall blocks in ( 3200# ) or drop 4000# of rock in to the bed and the ride is so much better . I think even the shocks are able to work when it loaded .
