• Replacement Suspension Parts for 2015 Jayco White Hawk with Dexter Axles

• Crossmember Support Options for a 5th Wheel Trailer
• The correct crossmember support depends on the suspension you have on your 2015 27.5 ft. Jayco 5th wheel. Unfortunately that is not information we have, so you will need to take a look at your suspension to pick the correct option. I have listed the options we have below, listed by what suspensions they fit. Stock Leaf Spring Suspension # MR84AR LRE, RE, or TRE Leaf Spring Suspension # MR99ZR CRE, SRE, or Stock Leaf Spring Suspension # MR33WR All of these crossmember options adjusts...

• Availability of an Axle Kit That Includes Electric Brakes and Suspension for a 1967 Monitor Trailer
• We do have some pre-assembled trailer axles with electric brakes that are rated for 3,500 lbs which you can find on the linked page. What I recommend doing is installing one of our Timbren Axle-Less Suspension Options, like part # A35RS545E. The Timbren Axle-Less suspension has everything that you referenced and it is all in one nice package. The way that this axle installs is a lot easier than traditional axles because it takes a lot of the measuring out of the equation that you would...

• Availability of Timbren Axle-Less Suspension System With Hydraulic Brakes with 4000-lb Capacity
• Both of the Timbren Axle-Less suspension systems with brakes that we offer have a 3500-lb capacity and both also feature electric brakes, not hydraulic brakes. Part # A35RD545E is a kit with 4-inch drop spindles and part # A35RS545E has straight spindles. Neither of these would have the capacity you need for your trailer. We do offer a Timbren system rated for 5200-lbs, part # ASR5200S01, which includes 5-bolt brake flanges. With these you could use hydraulic brake assemblies # 23-325...

• Solution for 2017 Ford F-250 with 6 inch Lift Experiencing Sag When Towing Camper
• I have a solution for you, but it's not suspension enhancement for two reasons. Suspension enhancement for addressing sag created by trailer tongue weight is more of a bandaid to the real problem and also because fitting suspension enhancement to vehicles with 6 inch lifts is pretty difficult. Best option is a weight distribution system. These system reduce suspension sag by distributing some of the trailer's tongue weight to the front axle of the tow vehicle. In doing so the braking and...

• Suspension Enhancement For 2000 Ford F53 Motorhome
• The suspension enhancement we offer for your 2000 Ford F53 are designed to be installed between the axle and the vehicle frame. For your F53 I recommend the Firestone Vehicle Suspension, part # F2170. Installing any enhancement system will not increase the load-carrying capacity of the vehicle and should only be installed on a vehicle with a properly working suspension. The leaf springs we offer here are designed to work with trailer suspension. You may want to check with your motorhome...

• Recommended Solution for 3500-lbs Axle with Spring Seats 64 Inches Apart
• I may have a solution for you, but we do not have a stock axle with a 3500-lbs capacity and the spring seats 63" or 64" apart. However, you could go with an axle-less suspension system like the Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension System w Electric Brake Hubs - Straight Spindle - 3,500 lbs # A35RS545E, which is a great solution that will replace your axle and leaf spring suspension. This is a great alternative to a custom axle and it comes with the hubs and drums, and the brake assemblies...

• Availability of Dexter E-Z Flex Suspension System For Trailer with 34 Inch Axle Spacing
• All of the equalizer suspension enhancements I have for double-eye springs are designed to fit either 33 inch spacing ( # K71-652-00) or 35 inch spacing ( # K71-653-00) between axles. I do not offer any that are listed for a 34 inch axle center spacing. You might want to measure the distance from the center from one bolt hole to the center of the other bolt hole on your existing equalizer. If you get between 5-1/4 and 6-1/4 inches you could use the Dexter E-Z Flex Suspension System, part...

• Timbren Axle-Less 3500-lb Suspension System for Off-Road Teardrop Trailer
• We offer two Timbren axle-less systems rated for 3500-lbs, part # A35RD545E which has spindles with a 4-inch drop, and part # A35RS545E which would be better for your application since it will not reduce your ground clearance. For off-road use you do not want to use a kit that has drop spindles; this type is better for a ramped trailer where you want a low deck height. Kit # A35RS545E includes the frame-mount suspension assemblies, E-Z Lube spindles with 4- bolt brake flanges, hub/drums,...
