Common on compacts (e.g., Corolla, Niro). One‑piece beam with trailing arms. Helper springs typically mount inside/above the coil.
Semi‑Trailing Arm with Coil
Independent layout with angled arms. Mounting varies by platform; fits near/on top of the OE coil.
Multi‑Link
Modern sedans/CUVs and many EVs. Multiple control arms; check space and coil location for fitment.
Compare Solutions

- Preserves empty‑ride comfort; simple install
- Durable and cost‑effective
Consider: fixed rate once installed (no on‑the‑fly adjustability).
Air Bags
- Adjustable support for variable loads

Consider: more components and upkeep; routing for air lines; higher cost.
Jounce Bumpers
- Simple, progressive bump control
Consider: can feel firmer over sharp bumps; less ride‑height recovery vs helper springs.

FAQ
Will this raise my empty ride height?
No. The system is passive when unloaded; it supports height under load.
Do helper springs change GVWR?
No. Helper springs do not increase your vehicle’s Gross Vehicle Weight Rating. Stay within manufacturer limits.
How long does installation take?
For an experienced DIYer or shop, typical time is 30–45 minutes per axle without welding or cutting.
Do I need an alignment afterward?
Usually not. If you replaced other suspension parts or see uneven wear, an alignment check is a good idea.
DIY vs pro install?
If you’re comfortable with suspension work and have proper equipment, DIY is fine. Otherwise, book an installer.
