SECTION 1
1.1 SUSPENSIONS
1.1.1 TORQUE VALUES
The suspension is the assembly that connects the axles to the trailer frame and absorbs shock
loads and braking loads through the leaf springs or air springs (air bags). It is therefore important
that it be maintained.
The life of the suspension depends upon keeping the connections tight. These bolts can become
loose from vibration and shock and, if not properly maintained at recommended torque, will shorten
the life of the suspension, reduce tire life, and eventual failure of the suspension, which could cause
a serious accident.
The following suspensions are standard on LUFKIN Trailers and the torque given must be
maintained at the recommended intervals as well as the periodic inspections as listed.
All fasteners on the suspension of your new LUFKIN Trailer were torqued before delivery to the
proper torque values. Due to vibration and shock loads it is necessary after a break-in period of
1000 miles or three months, and every six (6) months thereafter, to tighten all nuts and bolts to the
recommended torque. Always check the torque on the nut and not on the head of the bolt. Do not
lubricate the threads unless values given are for lubricated threads.
