Hi Billsam,I have had two trailers with that type of
suspension ,both worked fantastically until I hit a big pot hole with one bending the stub axle and found that its unrepairable,the second bent the chassis because they mount over suck a small section of chassis rail,
You cannot beat simple old fashion springs and good mounts u bolt etc,
I have also been involved in a few independant
suspension failures and normal spring failures,the difference being we could always get a bush fix for the normal
suspension but the independant
suspension trailers get a flat tray
home !

"I have also been involved in a few independant
suspension failures.... "
What's the most common failure with independent setups?
