Is Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension System # A4WS440 Rated for 400 Pounds Total
Question:
i am looking to attach these to a frame which will be mounted to a repuposed 500 gallon propane tank. tank weight is roughly 845 pounds. the axiol less suspension devices state 400 pound capacity. is this capacity for the set, or each? i need 4 devices so the question becomes am i getting 1600 pounds of suspension, or am i getting 8oo pounds of suspension? indeed if each device is good for 400 pounds do you have devices which have a lower rating perhaps in the 250 -300 pound area?

Expert Reply:
The 400 pound capacity for the Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension System # A4WS440 is for the set not for each. If you were to get two sets of these that would be a total capacity of 800 pounds.
You would need to go up to the next highest capacity, # A12RS440, rated for 1,200 pounds for one set.
