    Axle less suspension for camper.

    Anyone tried these? I'd love to mod the camper to remove the axle, I've not contacted them about a price yet but they look alright.

    Not a fan of the airbag and would rather a coil and shock but they can be quite tough however accidents can happen.

    Cool what we looking at there $2500, you'd have to love your camper .
    You would require a sturdy box section chassis, I like that
    Pic is of an independent flip over I can buy.
    Be interesting to see what they sell for[a pair]

    There is also another version which has an arm mounted into a rubber filled steel tube. The rubber is the absorbing agent. Very popular with heavy boat trailers, but they have many different weight classes. I'll see if I can find a link..

    Ye they look a lot more compact then the style in your pic, that just makes me wonder if they would be adequate for rough 4x4 action . We take our camper everywhere and this would make it so much more capable , though even with the axle its got more clearance then the troll lol

    That would be great these ones look as though they are missing that sideways support that the ones 3d shows.

    Just putting this out there ,but camper trailer wise for slow work ,wouldn't you be better off
    having more articulation at the ball via a tregg poly block or in my case an O'Brien coupling.
    Point being trailer only has one axle two wheels and can articulate side to side with no suspension movement.
    Do you get what I mean? just twist your hand from side to side ,you can nearly go till hand verticle.

    Have you welded a skid plate near the tregg for gully work,
    , It slides rather than digs in, works a treat,
    Pic is set up for a 4x4 Mag but being Un Australian I've un subscribed LOL

    Late edit;;;; I'm with you that's a lot of room to gain,
    make a huge skid pan, or slide rails
