That truck is attractive, but it has a limited payload and towing capacity.
In the box, there are two. In 30 minutes, I was able to install it on my 2015 F150.
The total height, including the 1 inch spacer and bracket, is around 8 inches.
If they appear to be too close to the axle, you can choose not to install the 1" spacer that comes with them.

With two bolts for each, this is a very simple installation. 1 bolt was inserted into the bump stop's existing hole. Other people have gotten into the product. It has a great feel to it because it works like a spring and has some give at first. The 1000-pound capacity is ideal for my cab-over camper. When I first tested it, it weighed around 1400 pounds; now it weighs around 1,100 pounds, and I believe it will ride similarly to stock with the weight loaded. Because I have a 4x4 and did not use the spacer, there is a 1" or 1" gap. There's a 5" gap before it engages, so cornering feels stock until it engages after 1. Travel distance is 5". Better than airbags for off-road and handling, as airbags are bouncy and shift weight back and forth, rather than working like suspension is supposed to and absorb and compress without the rebound of airbags.
increases the level of stability Ford F150 2WD, 2018 model. I installed these today, and without the spacer, they make contact with the rear axle, affecting the unloaded right slightly but in a positive way. Corner lateral stability has improved. It feels like the rear end is somewhere in the middle of a 1/2 ton and a 3/4 ton. With the spacer, I would never use this on my 2wd 1/2 ton. It would have a negative impact on the front-to-back suspension balance. Modern 1/2 ton trucks are attempting to be both grocery getters and trailer tow vehicles, so if you do both, these are a must-have!.
Now is the time to purchase. On a 2010 Ford F150 4WD, it's been installed. It is very simple to set up. Each setup will be slightly different, but I have about an 1/8" of clearance above the axle with the spacer installed. Without the trailer, there was a small difference. In a good way, it feels more powerful around turns. The first time we tow our travel trailer, it was a world of difference. It was a lot more comfortable this time. It took almost all of the bounce out of the ride, which I thought was fantastic. I'm so impressed with the Sumo Springs that I'm going to order some for our travel trailer as well.
150 It was extremely simple to set up. The steps are straightforward. However, this item was not made to fit an F-type vehicle. 150 On other trucks, the sumo spring will impact on a flat surface. Using The F- It collides with the round axle tube at a speed of 150 kilometers per hour. The polly spring should have a half moon adapter to allow it to impact evenly on the axle tube, as opposed to being flat to round. For whatever it's worth, it appears that it would fit perfectly on my Tacoma. This review has been updated because the product is now operational.
They are efficient and effective in their work. It was simple to install, and I didn't even have to jack up my 2010 Ford F150. I could tell a difference in hard cornering after taking a quick ride after they were installed. The truck did not lean at the hall; instead, it simply went around the corner at ground level. I'm curious to see how they perform towing a 10,000-pound trailer. I'd give them five stars if I had the opportunity, but I haven't used them enough to do so.
150 The only problem with the installation is that the bolt tightening opening faces the inside of the vehicle, making it difficult to see what you're doing. Aside from that, they were fairly simple to set up.
These things are far more effective than I had anticipated. In fact, it can assist with side-to-side movement. Movement to the side. On my 2015 Max-, it was a great addition that was simple to install and didn't require removing the wheel. Tow a F150 that has been packaged.
I installed without the spacer, so there is a slight drop with load, but it stays fairly level with the load, and the ride is smooth and not bouncy.
