Looking a SumoSprings
I have the air bags from the old truck but I am considering putting SumoSprings on the new truck. 2020 F350 SRW CCSB.
Looking at the SumoSpring Rebel SSR-128-40-2 (blue) or the SSR-128-47-2 (black).
I'm thinking maybe with the SumoSprings I will also leave off the sway bar.
So those of you with SumoSprings witch do you have and how do you like them?
Also looking for opinions on the blue or black.

Can't go wrong with adjustability/versatility of bags.
. Using Sumos does not redistribute weight to the front like distribution/sway bars do so if you are a SRW truck hauling a heavy tag along trailer I would not get rid of the bars.
An issue i heard people complain about is when not towing sometimes the sumos constantly bump on every little dip in the road and can be annoying.

If the Sumo's are installed with a 1/2" to 1" gap unloaded you will not know they are there unloaded. I had the Black 1500 lb Sumo's and they did help with sag for sure. I tried Superspring leaf's, Timbrens, Sumo's and Roadmaster Active suspension to see what I liked best. I personally liked the Superspring add a leaf the best followed by the Roadmaster because they both helped with sway unloaded as well as loaded. The ride unloaded was not changed a whole lot. Never tried airbags on this truck so wont comment on them. If I were to use Sumo Springs I would leave the sway bar in place as Sumo's will not help with unloaded sway/roll if set up correctly.
