Springs
Positions the axle so that it is aligned with the trailer.
Place the springs on the top side of the spring pads welded
to the axle. 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.#6) 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 the 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.
