Trailer Springs and Suspension. Caravans, trailers, and campers can have multiple different types of suspension depending on their make and purpose. Replacing your springs and suspensions can enhance your travel experience as well as improve your ATM.
Here are some of the most common types of trailer springs and suspension systems available through Couplemate™:
Leaf springs are the most common type of caravan suspension. They are made up of a series of metal leaves that are stacked on top of each other.
The leaves are connected by shackles, which allow them to flex when the caravan goes over bumps.
Coil springs are another type of caravan suspension. They are made up of a series of coils that are wound together. Coil springs are more compact than leaf springs, and are commonly seen on car suspension or independent suspension.
Tailgate springs are common on horsefloats and ramp loaders.
They are made up of a series of coils that are wound together with one long level-like part.
It is important to have your caravan’s springs and suspension inspected regularly by a qualified mechanic. This will help to ensure that they are in good condition and that they are working properly. If the springs or shock absorbers are worn out, they will need to be replaced.
