R&P Service Insight
Suspension rebuilds are best handled as a complete system when multiple wear points are already apart.
-
Complete Refresh: Replaces springs, shackles, equalizers, bushings, bolts, hangers, U-bolts, and tie plates.
-
Greaseable Hardware: Wet bolts and bronze bushings help improve serviceability at the suspension pivot points.
-
Fitment Check: Always confirm spring length, hanger layout, equalizer dimensions, axle tube size, and bolt hole measurements before ordering.
R&P Knowledge Hub
Compatibility: Built for tandem trailer axle suspension rebuilds when the existing layout matches the listed spring, hanger, shackle, equalizer, U-bolt, and tie plate dimensions.
Vehicle / System Fit: Trailer tandem axle suspension systems using double-eye leaf springs and equalizer-style suspension.
Installation Notes: Hangers may require welding. Suspension geometry should be measured before removal so the axle spacing, hanger position, and equalizer location are maintained.
Performance Insight: New wet bolts and bronze bushings help reduce sloppy suspension movement caused by worn pivot hardware.

R&P Repair Insight
A worn tandem suspension can create uneven tire wear, rough towing, loose tracking, clunking, or visible movement in the shackles and equalizers. Replacing the suspension as a system helps restore the connection points between the trailer frame, leaf springs, equalizers, and axles.
-
Measure First: Confirm spring eye-to-eye length, spring width, equalizer spacing, shackle length, and hanger height.
-
Inspect the Frame: Check hanger welds, frame condition, and axle alignment before installation.
-
Torque & Grease: Follow proper torque procedures and grease all serviceable pivot points after assembly.
