Which Way Should Lippert Shocks Face on Tandem Axle Trailer
Question:
I have 2 sets for my tandem axle trailer. My question is does the front axle shock faces to the front of the trailer and back axle face to the back of the trailer.

When installing the shocks of the spring kit part # LC281281 you want to mount the shocks so that they are facing away (and up) from the equalizer of the axle to get the best performance.
See the direction of the shock in the picture I attached relative to the equalizer.
