How are the torsion axles different from leaf springs in the way they ride? I
thought they were better - particularily for twin axle applications.

Thanks

I've never understood why one would want radials on a trailer anyway? It's
not like you're after cornering.

Radials have better load distribution than bias ply and they flex more
- bias ply tires will bounce under stress.


Indeed; I have four radials on my alum Yo Ho trailer, which also has
torsion bar suspension. It is a "different" kind of tow, and
disconcerting to watch if you are not used to torsion bar axles.
