Suspension Maintenance
Spring Suspension
1. Make certain that all springs are properly located on
the wear pads. Twisted springs or cocked hangers
will cause uneven spring contact with wear pad and
will result in excessive wear on the spring
suspension. Check the shocks for excessive wear.
2. Replacing the equalizer bushings and the torque arm
bushings on the spring suspension is a complex
operation and should be left to trained service
personnel. If the bushings need to be replaced
contact a Landoll authorized service center or the
Landoll factory for servicing.
Air Ride Suspension
1. Physically check all nuts, bolts, and air line fittings for
proper torque (see torque chart below).
2. Check all other suspension components for any sign
of damage, looseness, wear or cracks.
3. With trailer on level surface and air pressure in
excess of 65 psi, all air springs should be of equal
firmness. The height control valve on right side of
front axle controls all air springs on tandem axle
suspensions.
Air Ride Height Adjustment
( See Figure 4-2 for parts identification)
1. Before adjusting, the vehicle must be empty with the
kingpin at operating height and have air supplied to
the trailer.
2. Disconnect linkage at the control arm and raise
control arm to the “up” position, raising the trailer until
a block can be placed between axle tube and
undercarriage frame
(See Figure 4-2.)
3. Position the wood block between the axle tube and
frame according to table below. Block height is
dependent upon suspension ride height and/or axle
brake size.
