Well done! This is the best explanation and conclusion I've encountered on KZbin regarding the different kinds of suspension. Brilliant video!

Excellent video and awesome editing. This was really helpful to get a better understanding of the suspension system under the camps. Very cool to see those camps rolling along out in rough country!

One benefit of the axle less systems is the off road benefit. The bottom of the trailer can be flat and slide over obstacles, no low hanging axles.

Consider a different mounting of your rear spring. Changing your equalizer to the type seen on the rear of tri-axle trailers with the fork on one end and changing the rigid mount at back with a shackle mount. When you plot the axle travel in a turn you find a more complimentary movement of the two. Not dragging the rear axle around a corner as is the practice now. Better tire wear and better braking forces. Most useful on highway trailers. Not my idea was more common on earlier travel trailers.

What are the rubber bumpers screwed to the frame underneath near the leaf sprung springs. I have two axel and there are four of these things. Als are these nessesary.

Are torsion axles an option? The spring set up gives the trailer a higher center of gravity.. much prefer lower profile.
@peakmountaincamps2 жыл бұрын
Torsion axles are very popular on livestock trailers and some car hauler type trailers. Most other trailers will come under sprung rather than over sprung giving them a lower center of gravity while maintaining the simplicity of the leaf spring setup.

What would make a tandem axle enclosed trailer suspension squeak?
@peakmountaincamps4 жыл бұрын
Rueben Taylor I’m assuming it’s a solid axle trailer not torsion? If that is the case it is most likely shackles. They do make greasable shackle bolts that will solve the squeaking. In the meantime you could spray them with wd40 or other types of lubricant. Keep in mind most lubricants will attract dirt to the area.

Torsion axles look like something i would have come up with if i were tasked with building a suspension system and as part of the challenge, the only materials available were two sizes of square tubing and some exercise bands. Absolutely asinine in my opinion.

I've been researching on RV trailer suspension upgrade, and the slipper spring system, e.g. Roadmaster Comfort Ride, piques my interest. You said in the video's description that double-eye system rides better than slipper spring system, yet you have failed to provide any evidence or demonstration to illustrate that point. You keep saying the choice of suspension depends on the application, yet you have failed to give examples of which suspension is suitable or best for what application. You keep coming back to the point that double-eye leaf spring system is cheap and easy to get parts anywhere, which makes it seems that it is your only criteria in choosing the double-eye leaf spring system. With the exception of the axel-less suspension (good for rough grounds), I think your video does not provide much useful information. You have not really elaborated anything, other than keep repeating two points: double-eye leaf spring suspension is cheap and parts are easy to obtain. You don't need 11 minutes to say all that.
