Pictures of the Timbrens

[RTOYZ]

Here are a couhere are some pics of the Timbrens

ple of shots of the timbrens. Sorry for the fuzzy first picture.

[DuneJunkie]

I love that liscense plate on your hauler....................

I want to get one on mine too!  cost extra?

also, about those Timbrens...............what dealer did you purchase those from?  I called, but I ended up talking to the manufacture, so, I need to call the plase that is sponsoring the TI club so I may use my membership!

[RTOYZ]

Hey dJ. You did call the right number for the timbrens. They directly are a club sponsor, what better than the manufacture. When you call them back to order ask for Ed Sanders and tell him your a TI member.

I place my order today! 

What a great freakin deal!  I can not believe the discount I got! 

So far, I have used my T.I. Membership twice.

I saved $90 the first time, and I just saved $89 this time.  Almost $200 in savings for a $20 T.I. Membership!

Is there a better deal?

[RTOYZ]

Hey DJ, Have you got your timbrens yet?? Show us some pics and how easy were they to install???

[DuneJunkie]

they should be here today..................!

[DuneJunkie]

ok, UPS came today and still no package........


maybe tomorrow........i hope!

[Towman]

Wow DJ, its been over a week and still nothing.  Where do they come from, New York ?

[RTOYZ]

Yep. The main office is in canada, but they ship out of NY.

[DuneJunkie]

Damn Towman is good!

[RTOYZ]

we only have the smartest on this site!

[DuneJunkie]

[DuneJunkie]

2:30 pm and still no stinkin UPS!  dang them!

[RTOYZ]

It's after 8:00, Did your Timbrens make it??

[Towman]

Well heck, I was being a smart a$$ saying they come from New York.  I thought that they come from like California or Seattle or somewhere closer than New York.  Hopefully you will get them in the next day or so.   

[DuneJunkie]

Your a smart feller there Towman.  I thought to myself...............damn...........i guess age does bring wisdom!

ok, today is a new day.........hopefully they arrive today!

I will have to put my truck in the shop @ work since it hasn't stopped raining here in 3 days!

[DuneJunkie]

ok, UPS came!

Got them!  i will take pics before during and after............so you can all see how easy they are !

[DuneJunkie]

and decided to put them on!  well, 1 hour and 12 mins................DONE!

guess what............no pics!  sorry.  I don't have a digital camera here...........

i can get some after though.......

I ordered Timbrens today for both my 2500 Quad Cab and the 3500 Mega Cab.  I called 1-800-263-3113 and spoke to Murray Beale as Ed Sanders was away for an hour.  Murray took my order and gave me the TI discount.  For the 2500 they were $181.95 reduced to $86.79.  For the 3500 they were $268.27 reduced to $128.25.  They're coming UPS Ground so I was told to expect them late next week.  Y'all have a great day!!!!

[DuneJunkie]

that is an awsome deal! i am very happy with mine!

[Dodgerblu]

Our Timbrens arrived today.....the kid is mounting them to the 2500 as I post.....guess I'll do the 3500 tomorrow.....y'all have a great weekend!!!
Date Posted: July 14, 2006, 06:50:56 PMSo when the bolt is tight but not extending through the nut and there is about 1/2" between the rubber and the mount.....what's up....do we need to apply more pressure on the bolt or will it strip out.  What did you use to install these??  Impacts??  Or do we need to get shorter bolts....I can't tell from the pics how much of the bolt is showing through the nut.

[RTOYZ]

When I put mine on, I did not use the spacers included and We used a deep socket to tighten the bolt in the center.

I really need to get me some, next week maybe.  How long for delivery?

[Dodgerblu]

If you have them shipped UPS Ground (must be the cheapest way) it will take at least 5 business days.....in reality add a couple of days to that.  Ours took just over a week to get to us.

[duraraptor]

A week, that's not bad at all.  I noticed last week my truck sure is squatted down.
Date Posted: July 16, 2006, 06:17:32 PMHad the wife order them for me today $124 I am guessing a little more because of the lift kit on my truck?

[RTOYZ]

what were they before the TI discount??? DId I forget to tell you how to get a special deal? 

[DuneJunkie]

what were they before the TI discount??? DId I forget to tell you how to get a special deal? 

mine were $198 before shipping, but with the TI discount they were half price!  then shipping, so, yea, my price was about that too!

[Dodgerblu]

Ok.....the Timbrens are now on both trucks....the 2500 Quad Cab & the 3500 Mega.  We put the brackets in a vise and ran the bolts in with an air impact.  Then installed the brackets on the truck.  Piece of cake......total install time on each truck was about 10 minutes.  Y'all have a great weekend!!!

[duraraptor]

Got mine and installed them the same day.  Just like Dodgerblu. 

[Dodgerblu]

Today we pulled the Ragen out to Trout Creek (which is about an hour from home) using the 2500.  What a difference in the ride.  The Timbrens are great!!!!

[RTOYZ]

I'm glad you like them, and the deal through the club is unbeatable.

[YFZ 450 Quadaholic]

Hi, new to the site.  I am very interested in these Timbrens.  Almost a year since this post was started - how do you all like them?  Are there any issues?  I have thought about getting airbags, but a trucker told me about these.....and then I saw this forum while googling one night.  Thanks!

[duraraptor]

I haven't had any issues, install them and forget them.  They dont effect your ride when empty, nothing to break or go wrong, and you can haul more weight than air bags.  Very happy with mine.

[Riding Mom]

I have had both the air bags and Timbrens now and I will never go back to the air bag. I love the ease of the Timbren and they have a lifetime warranty, Easy to install and never have to worry about them after that. They engage on themselves when needed and ride nice. Also as a club member you can get them at Wholesale prices. 

[RTOYZ]

I will ditto that of my wife (Riding Mom). We put the air bags on her suv and pulled a 25ft toy hauler and they had many problems. Broken air line, busted brass elbow and one bag had a bad seem. We love the Timbrens and they work great.

[DuneJunkie]

I, like the others am also very satisfied with mine.  They are a great addition to the truck for towing the hauler.  And as a T.I. member come at a great price with our sponsor discount!


Also, welcome to the site.

Thanks for the link!  Doesn't sound like something I'd need for an enclosed trailer??  Probably not heavy enough to mess with.

[DuneJunkie]

most likely not, however, when you get a bigger trailer, remember them.

Absolutely!  Always good to have info for future reference!

[RTOYZ]

I now have a set of Timbrens for my toy hauler, I will be putting them on this next weekend. I am working with timbrens directly to distribute weight over the axles on a multi axle trailer. I will post how they work soon.
