Recommended Timbren Axle-less System For 2021 Lance Model 2445 Trailer Trailer
Question:
Hello, I just bought a 2021 Lance Model 2445 Travel Trailer that has dual torsion axles with 205/75R15 wheels/tires. I am going to be pulling the trailer with a 2017 F-150 XLT 5.0L V8 that has a 4inch suspension lift on 35inch off-road tires and would like to increase the ground clearance on the trailer as well as closer to the level of my truck. Also, looking to provide better off-road capability for the trailer i.e. wider all-terrain tires than the factory wheels/tires. The trailer has a an axle weight of 4,970lbs and a GVWR of 7,600lbs Looking for the best Axle-Less Suspension recommendation that supports the most lift/ground clearance and will allow for wider tires as well as all components necessary to change out the axles. Thanks for your help!

I have an option that will fit the bill but is missing one feature you are looking which is having the longer spindle for wider off-road tires. The Timbren Axle-less Suspension kits in the rating you need for your trailer do not come with the longer spindles for wider off-road tires.
I recommend the Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension System - 4" Lift Spindle w/ Brake Flange - 5,200 lbs # TASR5200S03 which has 4" lift to better level your 2021 Lance Model 2445 Travel trailer to your 2017 Ford F-150 lifted 4" on 35" tires. The # TASR5200S03 replaces your leaf spring suspension with built in progressive rate AEON main springs which do a great job at absorbing road shock, and allow the wheels to move independently making them better suited for being used off road.
The 12" brakes used on your current axles will work just fine with the Timbren system mentioned, and as long as your current axles use inner bearing # 25580 and outer bearing # 15123 or # LM67048 you will be able to reuse your drums as well.
If you would rather go ahead and use all new components you will need hub and drum assembly # 8-201-5UC3-EZ and braking assemblies # AKEBRK-7-SA.
I included videos for the products mentioned for you to take a look at.
