Springs
Position the axle so that it is aligned with the trailer. Position
the brake axle so that the disc brake calipers are on the back
side of the axle.
Place the springs on the topside of the spring pads welded to
the axle. (See chassis diagram) The hook end of the spring
must be mounted to the rear of the trailer. Place a spring clamp
on the top center of the spring. Place the 1/2” x 6-1/2” U-bolts
over the top of the spring clamp, spring and axle. Place the
spring and axle U-bolt plate onto the ends of the two U-bolts.
Secure in place with 1/2” lock nuts. Tighten.
Axle
Place a spring bracket bushing (Ref #25) into the rear of the
spring bracket and secure with a 9/16” x 3 1/4” hex bolt and
hex lock nut. Repeat in other spring bracket. Position the axle
under the frame, hook the hook loop of the spring around the
bushings just installed. Note: If the axle is positioned too low,
the hooks will not hook around the bushings.
Raise the front of the springs up so they align with the
front hole of the spring bracket. Secure in place with
9/16” x 3-1/4” hex bolts and lock nuts.
Tighten all axle U-bolts and spring bolts.
One Axle Brake Installation
Cut the tape securing the brake line hose to the axle. Remove
the brass plug from the port in the brass block on the right
brake caliper. Thread in the male end of the brake hose and
tighten. Place the other end of the hose through the hole in
the brake line clip bracket and secure with a hose clip.
Remove the plastic cap from the end of the frame
brake line. This brake line is located coming out of the
black plastic tube in the side frame by the axle.
Uncoil the brake line so that it reaches the end of the hose just at-
tached to the brake line clip bracket. Thread the brake line fitting
into the brake line hose. Tighten. NOTE: All bleeding to the line
can be done through the bleeder on the right caliper.
Fill the actuator reservoir with brake fluid and bleed the line
per the instructions in the Brake Manual. NOTE: The axle is
already bled at the factory during assembly. All bleeding to the
line can be done through the bleeder on the right caliper.
For bleeding instructions see the ShoreLand’r Disc
Brake Manual.

Mount the tire and wheel assemblies using the 1/2”
fine threaded tapered lug nuts provided. Tighten to
80-90 ft/lb. of torque using the rotation pattern as
shown in the ShoreLandr’s Owners Manual.
Re-torque the lug nuts after 50 miles of driving and then
periodically thereafter.
