Timbren SES Kit

Has anyone used Timbren SES kits before? If so, any feedback? I am thinking about getting a set for my 97' F150 to help out with stability and sag for when I am towing (around 5000 lbs - travel trailer). I still will also use a weight distribution hitch set up as well. It does not seem to take much gear in the back of the truck to settle down the rear end a few inches.

Have em on my F350 and they work great. Can handle an extra ton in the bed. The weight distributing hitch alone might be good for the travel trailer though. They work very well. BUT if a small travel trailer sags your backend and you put a distribution hitch on it, you might end up taking weight off of your rear axle with the WD hitch.

The timbrens might solve both problems of weight in the bed and extra stability needed when towing. Then if the TT makes the front end light, add the WD hitch.
