Question:
Hello, I’m looking at this suspension for my Turtleback Expedition trailer: ASR35HDS02 Timbren 3500HD 4” lift long spindles. Can you assist with what brakes/hubs I’d need that are compatible? Thank you

Hey Josh! I would be happy to help you find hubs and brakes to go with the Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension # ASR35HDS02. Since this is the heavy duty version it uses a larger spindle so you don't want to use your standard 3,500 lb hubs and brakes.
For hub and drum assemblies you can use the Easy Grease Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly # AKHD-655-6-EZ-K. Then for brakes you can use the etrailer Electric Trailer Brakes - Self-Adjusting # AKEBRK-7-SA along with the Mounting Bolts and Hardware for 12" Brake Assemblies # BRKH12. If you need anything else don't hesitate to reach out in the comments below.
