Question:
Yes looking at the Timbren set up. My wheels are 14", tires 75R14. It is a five bolt hub with 2 5/8 inch center to center. I would like to use the existing brakes and hubs if able to do so. My trailer has no leaf springs.

Expert Reply:
The best option for lifting your torsion axle and getting a better ride quality would involve changing over to a Timbren Heavy-Duty Axle-Less Trailer Suspension. They have a couple options that will incorporate a lift right in the spindle. A 2" Lift # TASR35HDS07 or a 4" Lift # ASR3500S06. These utilize a rubber suspension system that each work independently of each other. This will offer you a better and smoother ride quality.
We do not carry any type of shock kits for torsion axle's like you have under your 2001 Casita Liberty Travel Trailer.
