Ridewell Unveils Low-Ride-Height Trailer Suspensions

Sept. 14, 2016

Ridewell Suspensions has released two low-mount trailer suspensions to complement its RAR-266 product family.

One of the suspensions is rated at 20,000 pounds, while the other has a capacity of 25,000 pounds.  Both systems are available in drum or disc brake axle configurations with standard or custom axle widths.

The RAR-266 Low Mount 20K Trailer Suspension utilizes a narrow bushing design to achieve a lightweight, durable system that fits applications with limited space. The 20K suspension can be configured for use with 19.5” and 22.5” tires at a 7” ride height.

The 25K-version of the low mounting height system allows customers to standardize on a wide-bushing pivot connection while accommodating 6.5” to 9.5” ride heights. Both systems take advantage of a 5.75" large diameter axle combined with short cams to minimize axle weight. The integrated system saves installation time and requires less maintenance, the company says.

Ridewell manufactures suspensions for the truck, trailer, bus, and RV industries worldwide.  For more information, contact Ridewell Suspensions, P.O. Box 4586, Springfield, MO 65808.  Phone: 800.641.4122 www.ridewellcorp.com
