Hey Royal,
The 4 inch drop in those Timbren Axle-less Suspensions doesn't really reflect the distance from the frame. It is referring to how much lower the trailer would sit to the ground. If you were to use these it would lower your trailer by 4 inches.
Are you needing it to sit lower or are you looking for more clearance from the ground?

Hey Royal, Did you decide if you want your trailer to sit lower with the Timbren Axle-less Suspension, or are you looking for more ground clearance? I'm curious because your experience could help others make a decision.
