Add-on Air Suspension Stabilization for Spring-Ride Semi-Trailers
Works alongside spring suspension to reduce shock transfer and axle hop for semi-trailers
Spring ride trailers take a beating
Spring ride trailers take a beating
Spring-ride suspensions transmit significant vibration and shock through the trailer. This can lead to axle hop, increased tire wear, structural stress, and cargo damage.
The Smooth Ride System
Smooth Ride installs above the trailer axles and works alongside the existing spring suspension. The air bags absorb vibration and stabilize the suspension under load. Smooth Ride helps stabilize spring-ride trailers by adding controlled air support alongside the existing suspension.
