The trailer will rarely be setting perfectly level and without an equalizer the tires will be unequally loaded as well. In the case of leaf springs, it's done using a common, rotating equalizer. In your case, I'm not sure. I'd ask the manufacturer of the axles. This catalog shows the normal axle setup and may show your's as well. http://www.championtrailers.com/catalog_pdf.htm Question: On this axle each wheel has independent suspension. Would this take care of the situation you mentioned? Seems to me it might. For example, say the trailer was on totall level gound except for one wheel which was on a rock sticking up 3" above level. Hmmm, maybe not. I just don't know. |
