Section 1. Trailer Adjustments.
WARNING: ALL SUSPENSION ADJUSTMENTS SHOULD BE
MADE TO BOTH SIDES EQUALLY!
The suspension on this trailer system is adjustable for varying loads
and terrain.
The shocks on this trailer are adjustable. Each shock has a collar in the
middle of the shock just below the spring. Turning the collar counterclockwise increases the stiffness of the spring as shown in Figure 1.
It is recommended that the shocks be stiffened for frequent heavy load
use. Lighter loads require less stiffness.
There are three different shock mounting points allowing for three different placements. The closer the shock comes to perpendicular with
respect to the frame, the stiffer it becomes (See Figure 2). Always
adjust both sides equally.
Section 2. Add On Trailer Attachments.

ets as shown in Figure 4.
Step 2. Using the supplied U-Bolts, attach the bed to the frame as
