Leaf spring suspensions offer a reliable and smooth ride for your trailer, making them a popular choice for enthusiasts looking to upgrade or replace their axles. Known for their durability and ease of installation, these suspensions are perfect for bringing new life to your trailer, whether you're hauling ATVs, snowmobiles, or firewood.
Leaf spring suspensions provide a smoother ride compared to rubber torsion axles, making them ideal for various terrains. They are durable, easy to install, and can handle heavy loads, which is perfect for trailers carrying ATVs, snowmobiles, or firewood. Plus, they often come with pre-installed components, saving you time during installation.
Leaf spring suspension can impact the ride height of your trailer, which is crucial for proper clearance and stability. Knowing the height from the spring mount to the axle helps in selecting the right spring for your needs. This ensures your trailer maintains the desired height, especially important for snowmobile trailers where an inch or two can make a difference.
While leaf spring suspensions are generally reliable, some have noted that spring bushings can be loose if not properly sized. It's important to ensure all components fit well to avoid any issues. Additionally, consider the width of your axle and fenders, as wider setups may require adjustments to avoid tire interference.
Installing a leaf spring suspension is typically straightforward, especially with pre-installed hubs and bearings. Many find the process quicker than expected, with some needing to weld spring mounts to fit specific trailer dimensions. Overall, it's a manageable DIY project for those with basic mechanical skills.
When choosing a leaf spring suspension, consider the load capacity, axle width, and ride height. Ensure the suspension matches your trailer's weight requirements and that the axle width fits your setup. Also, check if additional components like fenders or tires need adjustments to accommodate the new suspension.
