Usage
Use a 6,000 lbs. straight spring trailer axle for enclosed, utility, boat and RV trailers. Your trailer can handle varying load weights with a durable, custom-built axle, and you can enjoy a stable, smoother drive over uneven surfaces. Handle gravel or bumpy roads thanks to leaf springs and shackles that distribute the weight of the load on your trailer evenly, especially in tandem setups with the use of equalizers.
Maintenance and Repair
A 6,000 lbs. spring trailer axle is known for its simple upkeep. Replaceable components like bushings, U-bolts and other hardware are easy to unbolt and replace by bolting on new parts. Because these parts are easy to swap out, spring trailer axles are a cost-effective option for your trailer.
