Why Shouldn't Timbren Axle Less System be Used on Triple Axle Setup
Question:
I need a low profile trailer for my boat moving business, must be a triple 7k axle for the boats that weigh 15-17k , Im using triple flexiride 7k torsion axles now, but they suffer from a ride quality issue that I hope the Timbren setup will help. Im sourcing for a new trailer build now and weighing the options for suspension systems. I truly would be interested in an air ride system for adjustable ride height if you have any systems in that category as well, thanks,

Expert Reply:
The problem with using the Timbren axle less with a triple axle setup is the lack of equalizers which distribute the weight of the trailer over uneven terrain like bumps evenly between the axles. With a triple axle Timbren Axle Less setup the full weight of the trailer would be on an individual axle at any given moment which would exceed the axle's individual capacity.
