How Canadians Build Dump trailers
What happens here
The trailer is equipped with 8,000 lb axle components from Lippert. The suspension system features Lippert's patented 'Equiflex' rubber torsion knuckles. This innovative design incorporates rubber torsion elements within the axle suspension, providing a significantly smoother ride, even when the trailer is empty or carrying heavy loads. This 'smooth even when empty' characteristic is a key benefit, reducing vibrations and wear on both the trailer and the tow vehicle.
Goal: Highlight the benefits of the advanced rubber torsion suspension system.
