Sumo Springs
Looking for any info on these, any pros or cons, especially if done on a W-22 Workhorse Chassis. Thanks

- I've seen those with upgraded air bags and it looked like a good combo. I imagine it would give a smooth ride.
- I installed the fronts and took a short 100 mile trip it did smooth out the ride on the W-20 2005 Itasca 33V I liked it so much I ordered the rear set they are in will be trying them out in the next couple of weeks will keep you posted on results.
- On your W20/22 chassis, if you look underneath, you will see that there are already rubber springs that look almost exactly like the Sumo Springs. These are in various colors, like grey and yellow and serve the same purpose of cushioning the ride. Putting on the Sumo Springs would just be duplicating what you already have. Workhorse calls it their Stabil-Ride leaf spring system.
- I think they may help on a P30 chassis, but were pretty much useless on WH.
They don't make any contact up front due to ride height of existing suspension, so never really come into play.
I bought two sets, one for me, one for a friend. He installed his before I got around to mine, and based on what we saw/experienced, mine are still in a box in the garage. Wish I'd saved the money and gone straight to new shocks.

p.s. They're available ;)
