The problem arises when the trailer carries too much weight and spring breaks before the owner gets the chance to upgrade his springs.

We located spring hangers at a distance 25mm longer than the spring.

Caravanning Problems Caused by Stretching U-Bolts

Single Axle Installation

• Locate the centre of the wheel well or arch. The centre pin is located here.
• Measure from the centre pin to the front of the Shackle.
• Use this measurement to clamp the front bracket into position from the centre of the wheel well.
• Measure the rear hanger (dumjack) from the spring length from the centre of the eye plus 25mm for 710mm springs.
• This length will be 735mm from the front mount.
• Weld both hangers into position.
• Install the front shackle bolt and spring into the hanger.
• Connect rear shackle plates and shackle pins into the rear of the spring.
• Shackle plates should be facing towards the front of the trailer. Once the load is applied, shackle plates will swing to the back of the chassis.
