Timbren Trailer Suspension Enhancement Options

Question:

I have a 2006 bantom Flier 18 foot camp trailer, the wheels on trailer dont have but 21/2 inches of clearance. The wheels punch out the wheel well liner, and i have gone from 15inch wheels to 14inch wheels to. Keep this from happening. I would. Like to have the rubber bumpers for added safety. I have leaf springs, i dont want to raise the trailer any higher from the ground. The bumpers may prevent the trailer from hitting the wheel liner. I do not have a llot of room to play with..

It sounds like you may need to look into the state of the suspension on your trailer. If there is so much movement that it has caused the tires to damage the fenders then something is not quite right. The Timbren springs like # TTRA1702 are designed to be installed on a trailer that has a suspension system that is in good working order so making sure yours is good would be the first step.

I have included a link to the installation instructions for you to view. These springs are 2-3/4 inches tall so they would be just a 1/4 inch larger than the space you have available. I have also linked the other systems we have that fit trailers.
