The Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension System # A20RS545 will work well on a boat trailer. It has a heavy-duty steel construction which doesn't make it the best option for a salt water application, but it does have a black powder coat finish that helps to resist wear and corrosion and will hold up better than a standard painted axle in a saltwater environment. The Timbren Axle-Less system will have normal wear and tear as long as it is taken care of.

The spindles use the EZ Lube feature which allows you to grease the zerk fitting without having to take the whole hub off. This is a great time saver option that some people don't even know about. That is really the only maintenance that you will have to take care of.
