Timbren Axle Less Kit for Trailer that Weighs 3,045 lbs
Question:
Hi, I have a home made camper trailer that weighs 3045lbs. when fully loaded with all my gear. I bought from etrailer a 3500lb axel brakes and hubs, but used my own leaf springs new rubicon express 4 lift jeep springs Turns out the springs arent enough to support the weight...My misfortune... I,mlooking at 2 options and would like your advise on which of these would work best for my application? ASR35HDS05 and TASR5200S03 I am worried that the 3500lb unit might be pushing the limits and the 5200lb unit might be too stiff? What would you suggest?

Expert Reply:
Since your trailer weighs 3,045 lbs when loaded the 3,500 lb Timbren Axle Less kit part # ASR35HDS05 would be perfect unless you though you were going to eventually loaded down beyond 3,500 lbs. Then you'd want the # TASR5200S03 which has the higher 5,200 lb capacity. If you end up with too high of a capacity your ride quality might be a bit rougher.
