Despite the size of your trailer, maintaining your steering and suspension system components is essential for control, comfort, and safety. Over time, components such as leaf springs, airbags, hangers, and shackles can wear down due to normal use. This deterioration affects your trailer’s handling and ride quality.
Signs of Suspension Issues:
- Your trailer tilts when making a turn
- Continuous bouncing after hitting a pothole or bump
- Steering wheel pulling to one side while driving
- Tires wearing out quickly or unevenly
A worn suspension system makes every bump, hole, and crack on the road feel more intense. It can also impact vehicle control when stopping or turning. Regular inspections and maintenance are crucial—neglecting a worn suspension can lead to catastrophic accidents that could have been prevented with proper care.
Every time you drive your trailer, the suspension system is working hard to absorb impacts from rough roads. Leaf and coil springs help mitigate these shocks, but over time, they degrade, affecting performance. Regular maintenance and inspections are essential to ensure your trailer’s integrity.
Suspension wear happens gradually, making it difficult to notice issues until significant damage occurs. Scheduling a professional inspection with our experienced technicians can give you peace of mind and save you money in the long run. A timely inspection allows you to plan for necessary repairs rather than dealing with unexpected breakdowns, costly emergency repairs, and extended downtime.
