These are rated at 1000 lbs verses the 500 lbs for these that most folks have used to date.

My current axles are 4400LB so I am on the high end for the TSS 107-40 unit. Loaded unit weights are well withing the stock GD spring ratings.
I just had a nice conversation with the folks, My use is for a bumper stop to prevent tire contact with the trailer. With my 16" upgrade I will be right at 3" clearance from tire to floor. I currently have 3.5" to 4" The supersprings folks thought the TSS 107-47 might better suite my needs. They would compress less then the blue model.
I also want to take some of the rocking and bounce out of the trailer. I have read the good reports on the blue model TSS 107-40. I also understand they reduce trailer rocking when stationary too, and soften the ride during travel. From looking at the installation on the spring perch they should not increase the stress on the trailer suspension or trailer frame.
Thoughts from the experts? I would love to hear from GD too on this topic and their thoughts. Would a moderator consider asking GD?
Thanks
