Timbren

Does the rear end sag when you load the pickup, hook up a heavy trailer or carry a camper in the bed? Timbren makes helper springs that add load support and stability when the vehicle is loaded. Here you’ll find Timbren SES helper springs for pickups, vans, SUVs and motorhomes, as well as axle-less trailer suspension.

Canadian helper springs for hauling and towing

Timbren is a Canadian brand specialising in suspension for vehicles that need to carry or tow a lot. The brand is best known for SES, the Suspension Enhancement System, a set of hollow rubber helper springs fitted between the axle and the frame. The idea is that the vehicle drives as normal when empty, while the helper springs take over and provide support when weight is added. Timbren also makes trailer suspension where each wheel has its own suspension unit without a through axle.

Timbren’s key products

SES helper springs are the core of the range. They are available for the front and rear axle of many pickups, vans, SUVs and motorhomes and come as vehicle-specific kits with brackets. The springs reduce sagging, body roll and bouncing when the vehicle is loaded or towing, giving a calmer and more predictable drive. Timbren also offers axle-less trailer suspension for many types of trailers. See each product for load capacity and vehicle fitment.

Frequently asked questions

Does Timbren SES affect comfort when the vehicle is empty?

On many models the helper springs are fitted with a small gap to the axle, so they only start working when the vehicle is loaded. That is why the vehicle drives largely as normal without a load. Check the installation details on each product.

Do helper springs increase the vehicle’s permitted gross weight?

No. Helper springs give better support and stability when the vehicle is loaded, but they do not change the permitted gross weight or towing capacity. Always stay within the vehicle’s stated limits.
