We offer two Timbren axles-less suspension kits that include electric drum brakes. Both are rated for 3500-lbs capacity (the pair, combined) and you can see them by clicking on the link provided. For a kit with straight spindles use part # A35RS545E. This kit can be used in a tandem application but not for a triple-axle set-up.
This kit uses the popular 5-on-4-1/2 wheel bolt pattern. It is intended for use with trailer wheels, not automobile wheels, which can have different offset.
The Timbren Axle-Less suspension system may require additional support on your trailer. If your trailer does not have a crossmember above the spot where you want to install the Timbren system, you may need to reinforce the frame. You can accomplish this three ways. First, you can retrofit the trailer with a crossmember. Second, you can build out the trailer frame. Third, you can use standard, 2-inch steel tubing to connect the 2 Timbren suspensions together using the built-in square hole on each unit.
