Best Toyota FJ Cruiser Trailer Suspension Parts

New suspension parts made a real difference in trailer handling. Original shackles holes were severely elongated, spring eye mounts were also needing attention. Thank you, etrailer for the needed parts and support.

These parts were a perfect replacement for my old rusted u bolts. I would recommend buying flat and lock washers to place on the u bolts under the nuts due to the holes in the plates being big enough that the nuts get a little torn up when you tighten them, also the nuts it came with aren't lock nuts.

I have received significant support from e-trailer over the past 10 days as I have made several purchases for a new axle, springs, and hangars for my utility trailer. William and others have went out of their way to assist. I have been very satisfied with all products received. I will post another review when the trailer is completed.

Good kit with the necessary parts to replace leaf spring suspension. I welded the hangers rather than bolting them. The parts are not coated for the price point so you will need to paint them or they will rust immediately.

This product did exactly what we needed it to. Bought a replacement axle from Dexter but it created clearance issues in the wheel wells. After installing this kit we have much more clearance and the trailer rides like a dream.

Outstanding product. I am so grateful the install video was added to the page. I am a hands on individual and struggle reading directions with numerous steps at times and it made it so much easier to install this. The explanation of how the mount has to sit flush with the axle seat once you tighten down the spacers was very helpful during the alignment stage. I still have to weld the brackets to the axle for extra support as recommended but I did notice that I will be gaining roughly 4” of clearance height to my trailer. This will allow me to sit more evenly with my lifted truck and get my trailer in my driveway easier since I have a water drainage built in to the entrance way with a big dip.

Product is as described, installation was easy & performed as expected.

I ordered these to help reduce the rolling (tilting) of my 18' travel trailer that I use off-road. Also, I am hoping it will absorb some of the shock. I have added some photos of before and after installation. The installation was simple, I used 5/16" sheet metal screws instead of the bolts supplied. Time will tell if they work as expected. As you can see from the photos, I have previously added an Etrailers shock mount kit to my axle. I made custom lower mounts that I welded to the axle and used the supplied upper mounts.

Great Experience! When I noticed that the leaf springs on my 44 year old boat trailer had cracked I thought I would never find replacements. I fully expected to have to have something custom built. I was amazed when I found the fantastic diagrams/descriptions dimensions for replacement springs on etrailer.com The phone support person was wonderfully helpful in confirming if items were in stock and ready to ship. The replacement springs arrived on time and everything bolted up perfectly! Thanks for such a great site!

Worked great fit was good. I did not use standard nuts furnished but used Nylon lock nuts instead.

Use these to rebuild the used trailer I have and with the new wheels she tracks and goes like new thanks for all the help, first trip 1000 mi round trip to pick up my new ride road fantastic thanks again

Compared to the original suspension parts that came off my trailer, these Dexter heavier duty suspension equalizer and shackle with treatable bronze bushing kit seems to be a major improvement. The shackles have double the thickness than original.

The parts in the U-Bolt kits (I had two of them) fit perfectly, and I am very pleased with everything about them.

The ladies at etrailer are awesome! Unbolts work on the new leaf springs , they know there products. I will buy from them for all my projects! Thank you

Product and service are excellent. You should consider using better shipping containers or using a different shipper. My box showed up with a hole in the bottom and the tape ripped almost gave way. By reading other comments this is not the first time.

Got these parts quickly and was able to rebuild my trailers entire suspension before hauling a car on a 1000 mile weekend road trip. Very glad I found E-trailer.

So glad I stumbled on these. Perfect fit for early Jeep CJ’s with 1.75” wide leaf springs . Saved me hours of cutting, welding, drilling to make my own.n

Perfect for installing updated axle in my 54 Chevy 3100. Thanks for the quality product and quick service.

All parts fit my rebuild of new springs for my 1999 Bear trailer that my G3 Bassboat sat on for 26 yrs(used a lot for fishing on weekends)

I Waited Too Long to Replace Trailer Bushings -The past few years I would hear “clunking” sound (different than “squeaking”) from my boat trailer, but I got concerned this year as it seemed louder. -With the boat off the trailer I could see wear around the shackle bolts -I called eTrailer to order the parts and was helped by Kayla to order the bushings/shackles/bolts/nuts for my tandem axle trailer -After trying to press the bushings in I realized I measured poorly and had two different bushings, the equalizer had 1 size and springs had a different size. -Amanda helped me get the second set of bushings (delaying the project for 5 days…but my fault) Right or wrong: -I applied anti-seize compound to the shackle bolt threads -I pre-loaded the “wet” bolts with marine grease to fill them up before inserting them into the suspension, adding grease when everything is installed -I tightened the bolts very securely and they backed off the nut ½ turn to allow for suspension movement Lessons learned: -Look for different size bushings in equalizer/springs and measure correctly ID & OD precisely -It takes some time to do this job (about 4 working hours per side) so try to do it when you are not under pressure -If you want the re-paint some parts, allow for primer and top coat drying time, i.e. overnight which adds time to the project, but it comes out better -Have a big breaker bar & extension/enforcer to help get the nuts on & off. My ½” impact gun could not tighten them all the way -A large “C” clamp will press the bushing in smooth & straight instead of using a hammer & block of wood “caveman style” -Annually inspect your trailer suspension for signs of wear and listen for increased noise Thanks again to Kayla, Amanda and eTrailer for help with this project.

I think etrailer is Great. I think their customer service is fantastic. My wife and I were in Arkansas, 1200 miles from our home in Ft. Myers Florida. I replaced the original springs on our trailer with new heavy duty springs, but never changed the hangers or bolts. Our trailer was riding very poorly, we needed new hangers and bolts badly because we were headed on a very long 9000-mile trip with many stops all the way to the Monterey CA. etrailer found us a UPS Store along our route to send us the parts that we needed. Many thanks to etrailer for great parts and Fantastic customer service and for helping us with our most Wonderful Adventure!

Great experience!!!

I received my first order of shackle straps and the envelope was taped up with no straps. I emailed etrailer and within minutes I had new ones on the way. No questions asked. Very impressed with the fast delivery of new ones. That's what I call a great business. Thanks a lot. U guys are really a 5 star outfit.

Before and after installation

I had to adjust my U-bolts a bit, but after that, the plates will do the job.

Great product fast service...

The shackle and bolts fixed my problem .Original shackle had pointed or right angle corner and the trailer hung up. The new shackle had a radius corner and didn't catch the frame. Works great

Everything was what was expected and the delivery was on time. I will always look to etrailer for my trailer parts. I built a trailer from scratch and it was etrailer that helped build it.

Direct replacement, great quality

Great product , delivered on time

Perfect fit for the 2020 Geopro 19FD with the 3500# torflex axle. This resolves the issues with bottoming out on any road ramp angles and the ultra low tank discharge ports. The parts are really well made and the installation is simple. Be prepared for the 150 ft-lbs of torque on those bolts. (Always use a torque wrench!)

Straightforward instructions, only had to extend wires on my 2022 E-pro bunkhouse. Follow the instructions to the T and it’ll take a handful of hours. I’ve lifted a jeep and two trucks, so have lowered axels before, this was a piece of cake. Had to also adjust my equalizer hitch but after having two busted pipes from traveling, hoping this keeps them away from those deep potholes. Only time will tell! I installed on my own and love the result! Before and after lift pictures attached.

I installed the TSS-107-40 on a 32ft. 7500lb. travel trailer about a year ago. I also installed front axle Sumo springs SSF-302-47 and rear axle Sumo Springs SSR-312-54 on my 2022 Ram 2500. This is a review for all 3. I Have been on 7 camping trips since the Sumo springs were installed on my trailer. There's a noticeable difference on good roads. Smooths out the ride and less body roll when trucks pass me so it helps with sway. But I just took a trip down I95 through SC and the road was terrible. I mean SCDOT should be ashamed. Especially any bridges - even small ones over creeks - the dips and ramps before and after the bridges were terrible. You felt like you were being launched off of a ramp. This is where these things really did their job. They kept the contents of the trailer from being tossed and kept the trailer tracking well and immediately dampened bounce and porpoising. I also installed front axle Sumo springs SSF-302-47 and rear axle Sumo Springs SSR-312-54 on my 2022 Ram 2500 and again - noticeable difference immediately in the smoothness of the ride while towing. I bought the heavier weight springs and was worried about the stiffness of the ride with no trailer - and there is stiffness - but man am I glad I had them on the Interstate going through SC. Before I got them I could feel my suspension bottom out front and rear in certain situations. Now - not a problem. You'll have to be ok with a stiffer ride when not pulling a trailer - but you'll be happy you have them during stressful highway driving. I keep a lot of weight on my truck even without a trailer - bed cap, bed slide, tools and other items so that helps with the stiffness when not towing. I also installed the spacer on the truck rear Sumo Springs so they are engaged all the time. Not installing the spacers may help with the stiffness. I may take my spacers out. Easy installation for the most part. I did it with 2 jacks and a jack stand. The trailer Sumo Springs were even easier than the truck springs. Just be aware that these springs - IMO - are not to improve the comfort of your truck ride in general but more to improve the performance of your truck while under significant load. Having said that, they did help a lot with body roll while cornering with no trailer which was kind of a nice bonus. The rear springs also helped with squatting under the hitch weight of the trailer. You may also notice on the trailer spring picture that the gas line had to be re-routed a bit - there's a kit that comes with the springs that makes that very easy - you're able to use the existing holes.

Fast and easy install. Have kept my travel trailer’s cheap China leaf springs from re-shaping themselves into an ‘n,’ from the factory ‘u’ shape. Highly Satisfied!

The holes to mount to top of axle fit fine. It's the holes the mount on the side, to the frame bracket are filled too low. They're off by half a diameter.

I purchased this item for 2015 micro mini with torsion axles.Simply put, the suspension lift for this trailer is no longer available.Three of the holes lined up perfectly.The 2 bottom holes and the one front one that bolts to the trailer. With an angle grinder, I cut the button rail of the lift kit with an angle gri der and had to drill the top hole of the bracket on the trailer to install the fourth screw and torque all bolts. It fits and operates perfectly and my minor mini went from 6 inches of ground clearance to 9 inches of clearance at the lowest part of the trailer. A beautiful retro fit for an item that is no longer available for purchase anywhere!!! If.your handy with an and grinder this modification is possible with this kit and well worth it!!! Sorry no photos as of yet.
