When every millimeter of suspension travel counts, Eibach ERS Helper Springs are the key to precision preload management and consistent handling performance. Designed for use with coilover setups and custom suspension systems, this 3.75-inch inside diameter (ID) helper spring ensures your main spring remains properly seated throughout full suspension droop — eliminating noise, slack, or unpredictable behavior under load transitions.
Engineered from premium spring steel and tested under the same rigorous standards as Eibach’s world-renowned racing springs, this 6.07-inch-long, 45 lb/in helper spring keeps tension in your system without adding unnecessary rate or ride-height change. Whether you’re fine-tuning damping balance on a time-attack build or maximizing traction in off-road terrain, Eibach’s precision-wound design ensures consistent coil behavior through every inch of travel.
Helper springs aren’t about lift or load — they’re about control. During droop or rebound, a coilover’s main spring can momentarily lose contact with its perch, creating instability when the suspension compresses again. A properly spec’d helper spring maintains light tension on the main coil at all times, ensuring seamless transition from rebound to compression and keeping your suspension geometry stable.
By using a flat-wire profile, Eibach minimizes block height and maximizes travel, allowing the spring to fully collapse under compression without altering the main spring rate. The result is smoother response, improved wheel control, and predictable handling dynamics across all suspension positions.

Eibach Helper Springs are ideal for both motorsport and performance street applications, including:
Coilover conversions and custom suspension systems
Time-attack, autocross, and circuit builds
Desert and rally setups requiring full droop articulation
Track cars needing consistent main spring preload
Off-road race vehicles balancing long travel and predictability
Whether your suspension sees 3 inches of travel or 30, a helper spring ensures your coil stays in place and your alignment remains consistent through every compression cycle.
When installed in conjunction with Eibach ERS main springs, these helpers allow for exact preload tuning, giving you the ability to fine-tune corner balance, droop control, and shock response — critical for precise handling on and off the track.
Installation is simple but precision matters. Always pair your helper spring with an appropriate divider (tender spring) spacer to ensure proper transition between the helper and main spring. Compress both springs slightly during assembly to confirm correct preload and verify that full compression occurs without coil bind.
For dual-rate or progressive setups, Eibach helper springs can also be combined with tender springs for advanced tuning flexibility. Always measure available shock stroke and coilover body length before selecting final spring stack height.
Eibach’s racing heritage defines its engineering. Each helper spring is cold-wound, heat-treated, shot-peened, and pre-set to load for consistent performance under extreme stress. The result is a component that maintains dimensional integrity through thousands of suspension cycles, even under professional racing conditions.
From Formula Drift and IMSA road racing to King of the Hammers-level off-road punishment, Eibach springs are trusted worldwide for their combination of precision, reliability, and predictable performance characteristics.
