Note: This Axle-Less system requires crossbeam support. If your trailer frame doesn't have a crossmember in place, you can retrofit it with one, or you can add a support by running a piece of 2" x 2" steel tubing through the square holes cut into these units. You could also add a steel reinforcement bracket to the inside of the trailer frame.


Get more ground clearance and a more comfortable ride when you're towing with Timbren's Axle-Less trailer suspension. This suspension system provides great shock absorption to comfortably get you where you need to go and to protect your precious cargo as you travel - even on rough pavement. With 2 independently operating units, you'll get better handling when making tight turns. And because this system eliminates your axle and has standard-height spindles built in, you'll get more clearance without having to raise your deck height.


Timbren Axle-Less Suspension vs. Other Suspension Systems

There are many suspension options for your trailer or camper. So, what makes Timbren Axle-Less different?


Leaf Spring Example

Axle-Less systems are a definitive upgrade over traditional leaf springs, in part because they allow you to do away with your thru-axle, allowing for maximum clearance. As you've probably noticed, having a leaf spring suspension means that your axle will always hang at least a few inches below your trailer's frame, resulting in limited ground clearance. This may make it difficult to navigate rough roads.


In addition, while leaf springs do a great job of supporting an even load, they may cause your trailer to bounce and rattle when it's empty or to bottom out with a heavy load. And they don't offer any type of shock absorption for a smooth ride - unless you have upgrades built in. With Timbren's Axle-Less system, gone are the days of dealing with these annoyances - this suspension is designed for a quiet, balanced ride, whether your trailer's fully loaded or empty.


Torsion Axle Example

A torsion axle is a step up in terms of shock absorption, and it provides more clearance than a traditional, leaf spring suspension, but that crossbeam will still hang down some. And if your torsion axle gets damaged in any way, it can't be repaired - you'll have to replace the entire thing with a setup that matches your exact trailer frame width.


With the Axle-Less system from Timbren, you won't have a low-hanging axle beam to get in the way when you're driving on rough roads. The standard-height spindles on this setup will keep your deck height the same, so you'll get that extra clearance and still be able to easily load and unload your trailer. And the rubber springs and independent operation both combine to absorb shock and deliver a smooth, easy ride. In addition, the Axle-Less system can be easily maintained over time, and it will fit any trailer frame width, so you don't have to worry about potentially ordering the wrong size like you might with other systems.


Timbren Silent Ride Example

Another suspension upgrade on the market is Timbren's Silent Ride. This setup is a great option to reduce bounce and rattle because it has the same AEON rubber springs as the Axle-Less system. But the Silent Ride still requires an axle, so you won't get the same ground clearance or low deck height as you will with the Axle-Less suspension.


Timbren Axle-Less Suspension Parts

The Timbren Axle-Less suspension is designed with you in mind. All of the parts work together so you can tow your trailer comfortably - regardless of load size.


Timbren Axle-Less Suspension Parts Diagram

  1. The jounce spring supports the weight of your trailer and cargo. It easily absorbs road shock and is constructed of AEON heavy-duty, hollow rubber.
  2. The rebound spring delivers a smooth, stable ride - regardless of how much cargo is on the trailer. It controls the movement of the jounce spring to minimize trailer body roll, bounce, rattle, and bottoming out.
  3. The trailing arm with integrated hanger attaches the suspension to the side and bottom of the trailer frame.
  4. The control arm carries the spindle and the hub. It pivots on strong, long-lasting polyurethane bushings that never require lubrication.
  5. The E-Z Lube spindle is simple to grease. If damaged, it can be removed and replaced, saving you both time and money compared to a traditional axle.
  6. The built-in hole accepts 2" x 2" steel tubing (not included) to add support to your trailer's frame. The tubing sits higher than a trailer axle, providing additional ground clearance.

Installing the Timbren Axle-Less Suspension

Measuring Diagram

The first step in installing the Timbren Axle-Less suspension is to make sure that the mounting points for each unit are directly across from each other. The easiest way to measure this is to mark the desired mounting points on your trailer's frame. Then measure the distance between these points and the center of your trailer coupler. These measurements (A and B) need to be within 1/8" to keep your trailer frame square.


Once you have your mounting points lined up, you'll be ready to install the system. Drill 3 holes into your trailer frame at the desired mounting points. Then bolt each unit to the frame with Grade 8, 1/2" bolts (not included).


Keep Your Trailer Frame Square

Because Timbren's Axle-Less system eliminates your trailer's thru-axle, you'll have to find another way to get the crossbeam support that keeps your trailer frame square. You have a few different options to do this depending on your application and how much fabricating you're comfortable doing.


Crossmember Installation

If you're building a trailer, the best option is to begin building with the Timbren Axle-Less in mind and include a crossmember where you want to install the units on your frame. You can also retrofit an existing trailer with a crossmember.


Steel Tubing Installation

If you don't have a crossmember where you want to install the Axle-Less system (and you don't want to add one), pick up a section of 2" x 2" steel tubing from a nearby weld shop. This tubing will serve as a support to keep your trailer square. It will hang only about an inch down from your trailer frame, providing more clearance than a thru-axle.


After you've mounted both of the units to your frame, you'll need to drill 3 holes into the steel tubing and into the built-in, square holes. Then, insert the tubing through the holes and secure it with 3 bolts (not included) on each side.


Reinforcement Bracket Installation

The last option is to fabricate a reinforcement bracket that can be attached to the inside of your trailer frame and to the Axle-Less suspension. It may be a little harder to fabricate a compatible bracket than to mount steel tubing, but you may get additional clearance with this method.

I am satisfied with the overall craftmanship of the product. But I was disappointed with the welding on the spindles. none of the weld splatter was buffed off, and the welds looked gobbed on, unlike all the other welds which look good.

I purchased the axles because I was intrigued. I would that the mount was 12 wider, and you might want to inform the buyer that the configuration makes it necessary to mount the axles more to the back of the trailer frame. But I am overall pleased with the axles.



by:

These axles were a perfect retrofit for a vintage tralier rebuild/mod. Service at etrailer was excellent. The parts were easy to fit with a little care. I would recommend this product and this supplier to anyone looking for trailer parts.



by:

No totally satisfied with the service I received since I wasn’t communicated on the logistic timing of sending the product out until four days after buying the products. I had to call several times to know what was goong on.. More comunication is needed.



by:

Worth the installation effort. My vintage trailer pulls better, stops better and gives me better mileage.



by:

It looks like a wonderful, well built system.

The shipment was partial, turns out they forgot the rest. Customer service corrected the matter, still took almost 2 additional weeks to get the rest.
The packaging for shipping -
The suspension pieces should be packed individually not together. The box was torn in half and falling out, scratched up like it had fallen out of the box during shipping when it arrived.
There were no installation / alignment shims or mounting hardware in the box, don't know if they were included and missing or they forgot that as well. I found no information on the paperwork for the inventory expected to be in the box.



by:

Products were delivered exactly as described. The tracking information and communication during the ordering process was also above expectations. I’d order from etrailer again.



by:

Best money we ever spent! Easy to install and the towing of the trailer has changed drastically for the better in every way. Thanks etrailer for selling a tremendously great product.



by:

The order arrived. They seem to be using heavier grade cardboard and only the box containing the spindles was torn open at the corner. All in all a good experience. Linda was very helpful.

Very nice addition to my trailer. Highly recommended

Very smooth pull. I'm very impressed on how the trailer pulls. My traditional axle trailer seemed to bounce a lot on the highway which made a lot of noise, but with the Timbren Axle-less that I installed on a new trailer, the trailer is so smooth and way less noise.
Great product.



by:

Installed the Timbren Axle-less suspension a little over a year ago and approximately 5000 miles ago. I have been extremely satisfied with the installation and performance thus far and have had no issues. I also chose to install an optional crossmember for more strength using a 1/4" thick piece of 2x3 steel. I had to increase the weight capacity of my campers suspension due to renovating the interior completely and adding more weight. I also strengthened the frame to accommodate the extra weight. In addition to installing the Timbren 5200LB system I installed new 12" electric brakes and upgraded to 225/75R15 tires with E load range rating.



by:

The axle-less suspension worked very well for my boat trailer. The suspension was easy to attach to the trailer frame and provided a lower profile than the traditional leaf spring and axle system.



by:

The service from etrailer has been great! They have been very helpful through the entire purchasing process. My one star is due to the quality of the product. First, for something as heavy duty as these are, you’d expect better packaging. On arrival, one of the spindles was sticking out of the box and the hand holds were torn on one of the other boxes. I was a little worried what I might find in the damaged box but everything seems to be intact. The disappointing part is the quality of the welds. For the price you are spending on these, I would expect a higher quality of fabrication. There is undercut in the welds that hold the three support plates together and big ol sloppy welds every where else. Unsure of what to do as my trailer has been designed around this suspension system.



by:

I purchased the 3500 lb. set w/4" drop. Wish they made a 2" drop. Install was fairly easy, but most of your time will be consumed with alignment measurements, acquiring shims, and making adjustments. I was lucky to have a very square trailer frame. However, the "slop" in the all of the mounting bolts (especially, the spindle mounts) is more than the 1/8" window they specify. You will want to preload all bolts before tightening, and then measure for alignment/toe-in. The units are supposed to have camber built-in, but it's not near enough (more shims). Also, this suspension has more travel then the documents indicated. I had to re-mount my fenders 1" higher to keep the tires front hitting. When fully loaded, you might have 1" of travel left. All that being said, the ride is better than I anticipated. It's less bouncy than a torsion axle, and very quiet. If I was building a trailer from scratch, I would use this system, again.



by:

It is important to know that your wheels are going to sit very tight to the trailer frame. I needed to add an extension to the hub for it to clear the sides of the camper I built.



by:

Spindles broke. Would not warranty them



by:

The trailer rides great down the road and no more worries about saltwater and rusty leaf springs. Not a cheap option but I’m very happy with the setup. When installing, just be sure to measure accurately and have sharp drill bits. A drill press type of guide also helps ensure correct drilling angles. The first picture is of a mounting gusset a local welding shop made. One is needed for each side and necessary to provide needed mounting strength-at least on my trailer frame. Pics 2 and 3 show the mounted suspension on one side of the trailer. Pic 4 shows the suspension on one side of the trailer with the axle attached and a separately purchased disc brake assembly mounted on it. Finally, pic 5 shows a 2” box channel between both suspension assemblies. Independent suspensions would have been nice, but I wanted to ensure trailer rigidity was maintained. So, after one year, so far, so good. It’s all smooth sailing down the highway.

We made an amazing creation out of those two axle-less axles.
We made a large fuel cell that is used for offroad use and it has worked excellent this entire time.
They are really great products and we would love to work with them again.
Actually, we do a ton of social media stuff and youtube and if you ever have interest in sending us products to build content around, I would love to have the opportunity!

  • Recommended 5 Lug Timbren Axle-Less System for 13" Trailer Tires
    The Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension # ASR2KHDS09 you're looking at is actually not going to work with your trailer tires since this kit is only going to work with trailer wheels that are 16" or larger. So, instead I'd recommend going with the Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension w Electric Brakes # A35RS545E. This is also an axle-less system that has a 3.5K capacity, a 5 on 4 1/2 bolt pattern, will work with 16" wheels or smaller, and Includes hubs (with bearings, races, and seals)...

    The closest axle we have is the Trailer Axle Beam with Easy Grease Spindles # e93GR to your 93-7/8" axle. This 7,000lb axle has a 94" hub face measurement with 79" spring center. The spring center can be modified to fit your springs by removing the spring seats and replacing them with new Seats # TRSS300. This will require the Brakes # 23-464-465 and 2 Hubs # 42866UC3-EZ to create an entire assembly. Otherwise if you need a 3,500lb axle you can use the Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension...

  • Where to Place Axles When Building a Trailer
    Let me start by saying that the Timbren Axle-Less Suspension System # A35RS545E you purchased is not for triple axle trailers. I would just suggest making your trailer a tandem axle and going with either the Timbren Silent Ride Suspension for Tandem Axle Trailers 14,000 pound # TSR14KT01, or 10,000 pound # TSR10KT02. You will still need 3 inch axles to fit your trailer's frame. I've attached a picture that can help you determine where to place your axles. You basically want to locate...

    I have some part recommendations for you as the Dexter 8-283 hub is obsolete. This used a spindle which is also obsolete. I recommend having a new axle put on as it will be easier to upgrade your axle than having new spindles, brakes and hubs installed. Your hubs were used on a 2,800lb axle and going to a 3,500lb axle will be your best option.

This system fits any frame width and provides a smooth, quiet, safe ride with a complete suspension replacement.. It is also available with electric brake...

  • Recommended Axle Installation with Spring Seats Too Wide for Spring Locations
    Moving the spring seats that far is not recommended for the reason your friend gave as it doesn't carry the weight evenly. My recommendation for you so you don't need to worry about the springs is to use the Timbren Axle-Less System # A35RS545E. This will replace leaf springs and mount to your frame giving you the support needed. You can use a 2 inch square bar between the assemblies in the integrated holes. Another option is to use the Timbren Silent Ride Suspension for Tandem Axle...

  • How Much Clearance Do I Need Between My Tire and Fender?
    You are going to want a minimum of three inches of clearance between the top of the wheel and the bottom of the fender when fully loaded.

This system will travel up to 1-3/4" before the AEON progressive-rate main spring makes contact. Once this spring makes contact it will not travel anymore....

  • What 5 On 5 1/2 Hub Available For Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension System
    The Timbren options we have available fit a 5 on 4-1/2 bolt pattern or a 6 on 5-1/2 bolt pattern. I recommend measuring your bolt pattern to make sure 5 on 5-1/2 is what you need. To confirm your measurement, use the distance between the center of one bolt hole to the center of the bolt hole adjacent to it (article on bolt patterns attached). If this measurement is 3-1/4 inches then you have a confirmed 5 on 5-1/2 pattern. If the 5 on 5-1/2 pattern holds true then a Timbren option...

  • Recommended Timbren Axle-Less Suspension for 3,100 lb Off-Road Trailer
    If your trailer has a GVWR (gross vehicle weight rating) of 3,100 lbs then you definitely want to go with 3,500 lb axles like the Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension System # A35RS545E you referenced. This doesn't really have to do as much with accounting for bumps as it does with just the general weight of your trailer. As long as your suspension components are rated for at least the GVWR of your trailer then you are good to go. The manufacturers keep things in mind like bumps when...
