Hi All! This is my first post here, as I have developed a sudden interest in trailer suspensions. I bought this trailer used for firewood, dump runs, and to haul my Branson tractor on rare occasions.
But I started looking at the suspension and don't understand what I am seeing. Anybody here seen a getup like this? Why is the equalizer tilted like that?
There are some worn parts. I hope that a local trailer guy will have these, as I was quoted $50 to fabricate them.
The trailer has been in use since 1980 and seems to work well, but I'm wondering about the suspension. Any comments from you experts? Thanks for reading!
