Hellwig 984 Details

Hellwig EZ 990

The EZ-990 helper springs are packaged complete with the same heavy duty powder coated and plated components, hardware and installation instructions as the heavy duty helper spring products. Ideally suited for light to medium towing and loads, these units are fully adjustable using the heavy duty u-bolts included in the kit using simple hand tools. If your tow and haul needs change, simply adjust the heavy duty u-bolts to suit the new requirement. Once installed and adjusted you are free to haul and or tow a multitude of equipment and commodities with greater control and stability.

These springs are hot-formed and heat-treated for strength and durability, and help to provide a safer, level ride. Made with high-quality, ASTM 5150 alloy spring steel, they're designed to eliminate rear-end sag and increase your vehicles level load carrying capacity up to the manufacturer’s Gross Vehicle Weight Rating. With 2,000 lb. They're easy to install and mount to your factory axle U-bolt plates without any hard-to-install compressors or air bags to fail.

Customer Q&A - Hellwig 984


Hi. I have a 2006 Ford F150 FX4 4x4. When towing our camper which weighs 5862 lbs. dry weight, the back end sits down about 3 inches or so, even with the equalizer hitch attached. Someone said to try helper springs to give the back end support and this would keep the back end from sitting down and help keep it level when towing the camper. Is this a fair assessment of how these might work in my situation or do they work differently?

Asked
Hellwig Helper springs are designed to provide extra support and prevent the rear of your 2006 Ford F-150 from sagging. Hellwig Helper spring kit 984 is rated for 2,000 lbs. If the tongue weight of your trailer is less than 2,000 lbs., which it should be on a 5862 lbs. trailer, you should be alright with this kit. We do have some higher capacity helper springs options also, if needed. If you have any questions about helper springs and how they work, feel free to call us at 1-800-358-4751.

By the mid 60's the company's southern California location proved to be to small and Don moved the Manufacturing facility to its current location in Visalia, California. Throughout the years Hellwig products has developed innovative suspension products that help vehicles handle loads and control sway. Products include Anti-Sway bars aftermarket and O.E.M. Also the most popular and imitated load assist products ever introduced to the light truck aftermarket, the "Load Pro 25 Series".

Included in these innovations is the "Next Generation" of load assist springs the patented "Pro Series" line of springs. Plus, a unique adjustable feature on new Anti-sway bar designs.
