Switching from metal leaf springs to this system changes the way a trailer rides. The Aeon progressive-rate rubber springs absorb road shock and keep the trailer steady, even on rough or uneven ground. They compress more as the load increases, staying smooth when empty and firm when full. The result is less bounce, less rattle, and a quieter ride that protects your cargo and components mile after mile.
Uneven pavement or dirt tracks can make a trailer lean and sway. The pivoting arms in this setup help the trailer stay level by keeping all tires in contact with the ground. Each arm moves independently so the weight stays balanced across the suspension. It gives a steady, predictable feel when cornering or rolling over bumps.
The suspension arms are made from heavy-duty steel finished with a durable, rust-resistant powder coat. Fitted rubber bushings keep the system quiet and make sure the springs are always working. There’s no grease fittings or complex parts to service, so it’s virtually maintenance-free once installed.
This suspension is made for single-axle trailers with 2-1/2" square axles and a total weight capacity of 7,000 lbs. It installs using a 2" x 2" hollow steel crossmember with 3/16" wall thickness (not included). Bolt-on installs need Grade-5, 5/8" bolts. Once mounted, the two suspension units form a solid, self-contained system ready for years of use.
Every kit includes two suspension units backed by a 5-year limited warranty, plus a 10-year warranty on the rubber bushings and springs. That kind of coverage shows it’s built for the long haul, giving lasting performance on every road and in every load condition.

Worth the money! Super nice ride loaded and empty.
Just did a test fit but like everything about the product! Construction quality ease of assembly all first rate!

Perfect replacement for my car carrier axles
looks great solves spring hanging easier to install personal flat bed trailer
A more stable ride Wolf-Pup Forrester RV trailer.
Installation went well. Not yet used for a heavy load. Switched from leaf spring suspension and empty doesn't seem to bounce any less than prior to the switch. Moderate load does show some improvement.
Had some problems with missing parts, but customer service was on the ball. got rest of parts 4 days later.. So to say customer was very helpful is an understatement. Installment was easy. Instructions were helpful. etrailer has my vote....
I like the product. But the instructions aren’t the best one part of the instructions tell you to bolt the cross member on then when you look at the picture they tell you to weld it. If you look at your videos they showed a bracket on the front of the hanger that you can bolt it on. To weld it on you have to be careful not to burn the rubber part of the suspension that is right where they want you to weld it.
Ok, probably overkill and certainly makes for a premium utility trailer. But compared to other trailers, there’s zero rattling and bouncing around. Install went better than expected too. Did have to weld quick to keep the heat down since the rubbers are right on the other side!
Probably the best upgrade I will ever do to our Roof Top Tent trailer. Rides absolutely amazing. I’ll never run leaf springs again.
We used this on an aluminum utility trailer that originally had a leaf spring setup. Easy to install, we just flipped the trailer upside down...
Turned a so-so trailer into an awesome one. Thanks!
My worries about my trailer have been removed. I am very happy with the suspension system and would recommend these suspension systems.
It is quiet, but… Since they are both mounted to a solid axle it doesn’t provide any sway from side to side. It is very bouncy on uneven side to side bumps and doesn’t track well. I’m sure this works well in a spindle configuration when spindles/wheels are independent. I ordered new leaf springs to remove them. Quite disappointed.
I have had both leaf suspensions and torsion suspensions on pull behind campers. I decided to try these when I had to replace my torsion axles. The Timbrens are without a doubt the best suspension I have ever used. The trailer rides much smoother as it creates an independent suspension for each wheel. The rubber pad absorption design adds to the smoothness. The camper is also much more stable when towing and I don,t end up with stuff all over the floor of the camper from a rough ride. I am extremely satisfied and highly recommend this suspension system.
I’m really torn about these. On the one hand, they are silent and tow really really well. Until you hit a bump. So far, our microwave broke, the hood on our range came loose, and the Aeon (sp?) dampeners should ideally be taller to prevent the axle from hitting the frame when a pothole is hit. I have contacted the manufacturer and they have been super supportive and sent me 5k springs, but it didn’t fix the bottoming out issue. I am at a loss as to what to do next. So am I happy? Not really. Did it solve my issue? Kinda. What would make it perfect is a taller spring or some way to adjust the articulating arms so they are so closed (like scissors) and give the axle a reason to hit the frame. That jarring caused the microwave to break and the hood to come loose. We didn’t have these issues with the leaf springs.
Very nice product
