• How To Convert A Torsion Axle To An Axle-Less Or Straight Axle System
• I do have a few options available for you however, we currently do not sell torsion axles. You have two options to consider for your trailer, the Timbren axle-less suspension and the Dexter straight axles. As you have a gross trailer weight (GTW) of 3,000 lbs. I recommend using a 3,500 lb setup. The Timbren System will provide you with a much easier method for converting from torsion springs in addition to containing fewer components.

• Trailer Suspension Parts Needed to Increase Trailer Capacity from 7000 to 10000 lbs Gross Weight
• Your best bet for upgrading the suspension on your trailer with 5,000 lb axles is to change out the springs from 1,750 lb capacity each to at least 2500 lb capacity each. Helper springs would not increase the capacity of your original suspension, they are designed to help your suspension handle loads up to the rated capacity of the suspension. If your trailer suspension is built with double eye springs you will need to measure the springs with no load on them from the spring eye center...

• Upgraded Suspension and Replacement Bearings for Tandem Axle Travel Trailer
• Because the RV manufacturers don't keep a database for that information, I have no way of looking up the suspension geometry of your travel trailer. I was able to determine that you have tandem 3500 lb axles that would use an L68149 inner and L44649 outer bearing which are available individually or in a kit as part # BK2-100. The kit includes the inner and outer bearing, the inner and outer race, the grease seal, the tang washer and a replacement cotter pin. To determine the correct suspension...

• Are Bushings for Trailer Suspension Spring Hangers Required
• Bushings do not always have to be used. Springs typically have bushings or they will use wet bolts depending on which part of the suspension system it is but not always. The bushings limit the wear on the suspension components. There are just different designs. Kits # APS2 and # APS5 use the same 7/8 inch hangers and it is those hangers that come with the bushings. I have included a link to our help article on double-eye trailer suspension for you.

• What Suspension Kit do You Recommend for My 3-Inch Diameter Mobile Home Axles?
• I have a great solution for your axles. Without knowing the specific setup of your types of axles, with mobile home axles, they are usually a one-time-use setup. Direct replacement parts are unfortunately not available. However, I recommend the Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension System - Spindle w/ Brake Flange - Regular Tires - 7K # TASR7KS01. With the Timbrens, you get the benefit of having a suspension system that adjusts independently on each side. If you need hubs that fit the 8...

• The closest thing that we have to torsion axles are the Timbren Axle-less Suspension Systems like part # ASR3500S05.

• How to Eliminate Sag in Rear Suspension of 2008 Toyota Highlander Caused By Towing Boat Trailer
• The # CSS-1145R Coil Sumo Springs you'd looked at would be an economical solution that would improve the rear end suspension sag you're experiencing, but might not remove all the sag depending on the trailer's tongue weight. Since you state that you don't have any other towing problems, this alternative might suffice for you. This being said, having the ride height compressed in the back causes a few effects you might not have considered. When the rear suspension is compressed by more...
