Comfort Ride Slipper Spring Systems
The comfort ride axle system with not work with torsion axles
Comfort Ride Slipper Springs attach to a central hanger that isolates each axle, so the two springs are no longer connected.
Each spring is free to absorb and dissipate energy, which equates to less shake, rattle, and roll in the trailer and in the truck.
For tandem axle trailers or fifth wheels.
Comfort Ride shock absorber and slipper leaf spring systems will significantly reduce the cause of these common symptoms:
Chucking - the truck is rocked forward and aft when the trailer goes over uneven pavement (dips, frost heaves, and the infamous bridge expansion joints)
Axle roll-up - during braking, the trailer's rear tires are lifted enough to cause a loss in traction (and a rise in the driver's blood pressure)
Suspension rebound - when one tire goes over an obstacle, the trailer tips sideways. After the tire clears the obstacle, the leaf springs (and the trailer with them) rebound like a pogo stick.
Comfort Ride shock absorber and slipper leaf spring kits can be purchased and installed separately, but in combination, the whole is greater than the parts - the two components provide a more significant improvement in ride quality.
