Parts Needed to Jack Up Trailer to Replace Suspension Components
Question:
Hey guys question? Broke a spring on my 18 ft toy hauler which in turn the axle shifted and started to rub the inside of one of the tires ! So now I’m thinking I need to get all four wheels off the ground to replace all the suspension and put the axle back where it should be ! What is the best procedure to safely get all four wheels suspended? Thank you for the help !

Jack stands supporting the frame in four places would be best way to get the trailer off the ground for what you are wanting to do. For jack stands we have the part # PTW1605 which comes with a floor jack and we also have a pair of just the jack stands with the part # PTW41021.
I would recommend jacking up one side of the trailer and putting two jack stands on that side of the trailer and then going to the other side to do the same.
