• Which MORryde Suspension Upgrade Kit For 2-5/8 Shackle Straps
• Between the two kits, the better option for replacing your 2-5/8" shackle straps is the version with the shorter 2-1/4" shackle straps, which is the following part number: - MORryde Suspension Upgrade Kit for Tandem Axle Trailers # MR46ZR This will lower your trailer ever so slightly, but still allow enough room for suspension travel. Going with longer shackle straps like the other kit has will result in more movement within your suspension, which can lead to suspension components wearing...

• Best Way to Improve Suspension Quality on 2017 Grand Design Reflection 29RS
• Hey Tom, so going with a different leaf spring that has a different amount of leaves will not change the bouncing you mentioned. The best way to stop that would be to add shocks to the suspension which will slow down the up and down movement. Now with that said the absolute best solution would be the Roadmaster Comfort Ride system part # RM-2460-2560. This replaces the entire suspension setup and will give the trailer essentially vehicle suspension that will be much smoother and won't...

• Recommended Trailer Hubs For The Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension # ASR2000S01
• Hey David, If you got a 2k Timbren Axle-Less Suspension with just the spindle then you most likely have the # ASR2000S01. This uses bearing # L44649 for both the inner and outer bearings and # 10-9 for the grease seal. For a compatible hub you could use the etrailer Easy Grease Trailer Idler Hub Assembly for 2K Axles # AKIHUB-440-2-EZ-2K for a 4 on 4 bolt pattern. There currently isn't a 6 on 5.5 bolt pattern available that's going to be compatible with the spindle. There is a 5 on 4.5...

• Parts Needed To Lift The Suspension Of A 2021 Forest River R-POD RP-195
• Hi Mark, To lift the trailer you'll need to first check the suspension to see if yours is underslung or overslung. If your axle sits above the leaf spring (underslung) then you can measure the tube diameter and use an over-under-conversion kit (2-3/8" dimeter axles # K71-384-00 & 3" diameter axles # K71-385-00) to gain height equal to the diameter of the axle tube plus the height of the spring stack. If you already have an overslung suspension then you'd have to cut off the current...

The Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension item # ASR3500S06 works with wheels up to 16" so the Taskmaster ST235/75R15 Radial Off-Road Tire w/ 15" Vesper Black Mod Wheel item # TA65RR will indeed be compatible.

• Upgraded Suspension Kit For Arctic Wolf 5th Wheel Trailer
• Hey Calvin, For a suspension upgrade kit on your Arctic Wolf 5th wheel trailer what you need to do is measure the length of your shackle straps from center to center to get the right length.

• Will Using 2 of the Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension Kits Double the Capacity?
• Yes, you can use 2 of the Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension Kits # ASR35HDS02 which will give you a total trailer GVWR of 7,000lbs. Do understand you must include the weight of the trailer into this calculation. If you are needing to carry 7,000lbs above the weight of the trailer you will want 2 of the Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension Systems # T99GR which each have a 5,200lb capacity.

• Why Can't Saris MHS be Used at Rear of 5th Wheel Trailer
• RVs in general have a much rougher ride quality than vehicles due to the less sophisticated suspension (mostly trailer) but also the much longer length between the rear axle of the motorhome and the rear bumper. This exaggerates the movement from bumps which puts an additional strain on the bike rack. So fifth wheel trailers have the worse suspension and the increased length to bumper from axle which is why they have the harshest ride quality and the motorhomes only have one element of...

• Replacement Suspension Components for 1970's Tandem Axle Horse Trailer
• We do have replacement parts for your trailer. Starting with the equalizer we have the # TREQR89. It sounds like you have 3-1/8" shackle straps so I recommend the MORryde Suspension Upgrade Kit # MR76ZR. This comes with wet bolts, bronze bushings, and 1/2" thick shackle straps. I believe you're talking about hangers when you gave those shackle dimensions. The closest we have to your front and rear are the # 115918 which are 2-3/8" tall. The closest thing we have to 6-3/4" is the 5-7/16"...

• Will the Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement Work With a 2021 Ram 1500 Warlock W/ Air Suspension
• Kevin, the Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System # TDR1500DS will physically fit but the factory air suspension system will likely interfere with the jounce springs. When these were tested on trucks with air suspension, the air suspension system had problems while trying to lower the truck. Unfortunately, all of the other suspension enhancements are going to run into the same issue.

• Recommended Axle-less Suspension System for a Commercial Trailer
• Hey Landon, that looks like you're looking for the Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension # ASR2000S02. This is the same concept as the AB Tools version with 2 separate suspension units, has a bit larger capacity at 2K instead of 1,653 lbs (750KG), and includes a 4 bolt flange with a straight spindle.

• Determining The Correct MORryde Suspension Upgrade Kit For A Forest River Wildwood 233RBXL
• Hey Beatrice, To find the right fit for your trailer's suspension you'll need to take a quick measurement of your current shackle straps. You'll need to measure from the center of one bolt hole to the center of the other bolt hole. The MORryde upgrade kit # MR46ZR you were looking at has a 2-1/4" center to center measurement. If you find your measurement is instead 3-1/8" you'll want part # MR76ZR. If you want to upgrade the equalizer as well then you can measure your current one based...

• What Type of Bolt is Used On Slipper End of Slipper Spring Suspensions
• The bolt on the slipper end of a slipper spring suspension is a regular shackle bolt. It basically looks like a regular bolt. This can be seen in the Tandem-Axle Trailer Hanger Kit for 2" Slipper Springs # APT6SE. If you're looking for replacement shackle bolts you will need to measure the length and diameter of your current bolts so they match. I have attached a link below to all of our suspension bolts, along with a help article on slipper spring trailer suspension for your reference.

• Suspension Issues On A 2012 Prime Time Crusader
• Hello Will, interesting question. It sounds like the suspension components you are using are not sized correctly. I suspect either the leaf springs, shackles or equalizer may be too long. When replacing suspension components like leaf springs, equalizers and shackles, the replacement parts must be identical in size to the stock components. There is a small amount of tolerance there but not much. Usually when we see suspension all out of wack like this it is due to incorrectly sized components....

• Upgraded Equalizers for a 2018 Coleman Light 2515RL
• The correct Never Fail Tandem Axle Suspension Upgrade Hardware Kit for your 2018 Coleman Light 2515RL is part # LC281285. However, this kit is more for longevity and maintenance purposes than it is for improved ride quality or anything of that nature. If you are looking for something to help with this then you would want to use the Equa-Flex Cushioned Equalizers part # LC279687 or the Road Armor Shock Absorbing Equalizer Kit part # LC696740 which both contain rubber cores to minimize chucking...
