    No, I said it doesn't have a permanent sag. It rebounds just fine once the trailer is unhooked.


    Anyway, the Timbrens. They may not be airbags, but I've heard they help a lot with load carrying, specifically tongue weight. And don't mess with your de-trailered offroad capability. Any opinions?

    I just searched Timbrens to look for the thread I was talking about and there are about 15 Timbren threads , but I can't see the one I was thinking about

    I'm not baiting you , I don't care

    I was looking into them before I bought my Wheelers Superbumps and some people complained that the Timbrens had an aggressive rebound

    An aggresive rebound I don't worry about too much. All I'm caring about right now is handling the tongue weight and not sacrificing too much in offroad capability de-trailered.


    Seems like Timbrens are a good compromise. RideRites, they don't sound too good, offroad not so good. AAL's maybe, maybe too much lift. Full replacement packs, maybe, but again maybe too much lift. I keep going back to the Timbren as a good compromise and was looking for pros/cons.
