Procedure for
Axle Assembly
1. Place teflon insulators on the axle beam mount and line up holes.
Some trailers will have two sets of holes with the front set as the
standard location. The rear set can be used to add tongue weight.
2. Set axle(s) on top of Teflon insulators so trailing arm taper is to the
rear of trailer. Start each of the four bolts but do not snug up yet. See
Fig. 1 and Fig. 2
3. Pick a point on the outer edge
of the axle(s) that can be easily
measured to on both sides. Measure
from the center of the coupler to
these points (fig. 3). Adjust axles so
these two measurements are equal
to within 1/16”. If mounting more
than one axle, start with the rear
and work forward.
4. Tighten all four bolts to 75 ft/
Ibs. Recheck alignment.
WARNING
Multi axle trailers must be level when towing.
Failure to do so will result in excessive tire
wear and reduced braking power.
