Above is a generic video of the installation and performance of a Timbren spring on the front of a vehicle equipped with a snow plow. Again, this is generic and installation procedure, parts and schematics may vary depending on applications.

When a plow is placed on the front end of the truck, the weight will stress and sag the front which can cause front end damage, uneven weight distribution and less power transfer from the rear tires. The timbren load booster is a solution that will correct these problems.

The unit first assembles with the appropriate mounting brackets and rubber cushion that will be held together with a single bolt.

Then, the stem of the bolt is placed through and existing hole typically above the radius arm on the frame and held tight with a small nut.

With the Timbren kit in place, the vehicle will remain level by the unit absorbing the additional weight and filling the void between the frame and radius arm. These small and simple to install kits prove to be one of the most affective products in redistributing weight to rear tires, avoiding front end damage and keeping the ride completely unaffected when the plow is not attached.
