Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

ATTENTION: GMC C-1500 PICKUP TRUCK OWNERS

"Are You Looking For A Stable, More Comfortable Ride?..."

Then SuperSprings are what you've been waiting for to give your C-1500 Truck the security and stability whether hauling a heavy load, towing or just great handling.

"So, What Are SuperSprings..."

SuperSprings are patented self-adjusting suspension stabilizers engineered for your C-1500Pickup with leaf spring rear suspension systems. SuperSprings by design provide users extra load capacity and additional vehicle handling and control, both without hardening the ride.

SuperSprings install easily and quickly directly over your C-1500 existing rear leaf springs. They work in parallel with the GMC C-1500 Pickups existing suspension system and “kick-in” on demand. This is accomplished via SuperSprings patented tapered spring blade and rolling shackles.

"How Does a SuperSpring Work?..."

The increases in load carrying capacity delivered by installing Super Springs helps eliminate vehicle rear-end sag and improves towing capabilities. Super Springs unique anti-sway properties reduce body roll providing enhanced driver safety and control. These features are most noticeable when cornering, encountering strong cross winds or dealing with wind buffeting from other traffic.

SuperSprings are progressive in nature in that they work on an as-needed basis. The installed springs are under nominal tension even when the vehicle is unloaded. This is for two reasons:

So that there is no rattle or noise from the installed SuperSpring
So that the patented rollers will activate automatically

SuperSpring with Shackle

As the rear leaf springs on your C-1500 truck comes under load, the factory springs react as they are designed too. The center of the springs move vertically causing the overall leaves to flex and “flatten” out. This movement in the factory spring activates the SuperSpring through the rollers at the end of each leaf. Because the SuperSpring rollers are under tension, a movement in the factory spring causes them to move, seeking their new point of least resistance.

This simple roller principal allows the SuperSprings on your GMCC-1500 Pickup to activate and deactivate automatically, free of any manual adjustment!
