Erde trailer shock absorbers
Erde make a range of shock absorbers to fit their range of trailers (excluding the 102 model). Shock absorbers are designed to dampen the movement of the suspension arm. A trailer with shock absorbers will have less strain on its axle, which will give a smoother ride and increase the trailers life. These shock absorbers are supplied with all the fixtures and fittings needed to install them.
Good features of Erde shock absorbers:
- They give your trailer a smoother ride when it is loaded with goods
- The smoother ride increases the life of trailer parts
- The trailers load is bounced around less when loaded near to its capacity
Bad features of Erde shock absorbers:
- They are not available for all models of trailer
- They can be expensive
- Rubber torsion suspension really should not need to be dampened
- May cause the trailer to bounce more when empty
Shock absorbers are accessories that not every trailer owner will agree on. It depends on what your trailer is carrying and what terrain you are towing on. For regular road use, towing loads like garden waste ect. your trailers standard rubber torsion suspension should easily be sufficient.
