Hellwig EZ 1000

These EZ-1000 helper spring kits from Hellwig can be easily adjusted to meet your changing needs. The 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 end rear-end sag and increase your vehicles level load carrying capacity up to the manufacturer’s Gross Vehicle Weight Rating. Their single split-leaf design and 1,000 lb. level load capacity is ideal for medium loads, giving you more control through level load management. They're easy to install--they just bolt right on without any hard-to-install compressors or air bags to fail.

Th EZ-1000 Hellwig Helper Spring is 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 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.

Customer Q&A - Hellwig 1251


I want to know it will work on a jeep wrangler 1993 2.5

Asked
Hellwig Helper Spring kit 1251 is designed specifically for the Toyota Tacoma 2 wheel drive and will not fit a Jeep. Hellwig does not offer a helper spring for a 1993 Jeep Wrangler. We recommend looking at Timbren kit JRYJ1 if you are looking for load support. It will fit the stock height 1993 Jeep Wrangler. Feel free to call us at 1-800-358-4751 if you have any additional questions.


Is this kit designed to use one helper spring on each side of the truck or two springs on each side ?

Asked
Hellwig Helper Spring kit 1251 kit includes two long and two short leaf helper springs. The short leaf helper spring will mount to the front of the axle and the long leaf helper spring will mount to the rear of the axle on the vehicle springs.

TruckSpring is a warehouse distributor for Hellwig products and we have been installing Hellwig air spring kits, Hellwig sway bars and Hellwig steel helper springs kits at our shop for years at our Michigan repair facility. We have a great working relationship with Hellwig and are very familiar with all of their suspension products. Hellwig products are made in the USA and we highly recommend them.

The history of Hellwig Products Co, Inc. began in Kansas City, Kansas in the early forties. With son Donald by his side, Rudolph, " Ruddy" Hellwig, began designing and manufacturing "Helper Springs". The business was moved to Southern California in the mid forties and incorporated in 1946.

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".

With a third generation of Hellwig, Don's son Mark directing the business a whole new series of innovations is being introduced. 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. Hellwig is proud to introduce the "FastRack" motorcycle racking system for toyhaulers and light trucks.
