Note: This Axle-Less system requires crossbeam support. If your trailer frame doesn't have a crossmember in place, you can retrofit it with one, or you can add a support by running a piece of 2" x 3" steel tubing through the square holes cut into these units. You could also add a steel reinforcement bracket to the inside of the trailer frame.
Get more ground clearance and a more comfortable ride when you're towing with Timbren's Axle-Less trailer suspension. This suspension system provides great shock absorption to comfortably get you where you need to go and to protect your precious cargo as you travel - even on rough pavement. With 2 independently operating units, you'll get better handling when making tight turns. And because this system eliminates your axle and has lift spindles built in, you'll get even greater ground clearance.
Timbren Axle-Less Suspension vs. Other Suspension Systems
There are many suspension options for your trailer or camper. So, what makes Timbren Axle-Less different?
Axle-Less systems are a definitive upgrade over traditional leaf springs, in part because they allow you to do away with your thru-axle, allowing for maximum clearance. As you've probably noticed, having a leaf spring suspension means that your axle will always hang at least a few inches below your trailer's frame, resulting in limited ground clearance. This may make it difficult to navigate rough roads.
In addition, while leaf springs do a great job of supporting an even load, they may cause your trailer to bounce and rattle when it's empty or to bottom out with a heavy load. And they don't offer any type of shock absorption for a smooth ride - unless you have upgrades built in. With Timbren's Axle-Less system, gone are the days of dealing with these annoyances - this suspension is designed for a quiet, balanced ride, whether your trailer's fully loaded or empty.
A torsion axle is a step up in terms of shock absorption, and it provides more clearance than a traditional, leaf spring suspension, but that crossbeam will still hang down some. And if your torsion axle gets damaged in any way, it can't be repaired - you'll have to replace the entire thing with a setup that matches your exact trailer frame width.
With the Axle-Less system from Timbren, you won't have a low-hanging axle beam to get in the way when you're driving on rough roads. The lift spindles on this setup will also raise your deck height, making navigating those rough roads much easier. And the rubber springs and independent operation both combine to absorb shock and deliver a smooth, easy ride. In addition, the Axle-Less system can be easily maintained over time, and it will fit any trailer frame width, so you don't have to worry about potentially ordering the wrong size like you might with other systems.
Another suspension upgrade on the market is Timbren's Silent Ride. This setup is a great option to reduce bounce and rattle because it has the same AEON rubber springs as the Axle-Less system. But the Silent Ride still requires an axle, so you won't get the same ground clearance or low deck height as you will with the Axle-Less suspension.
Timbren Axle-Less Suspension Parts
The Timbren Axle-Less suspension is designed with you in mind. All of the parts work together so you can tow your trailer comfortably - regardless of load size.
- The jounce spring supports the weight of your trailer and cargo. It easily absorbs road shock and is constructed of AEON heavy-duty, hollow rubber.
- The rebound spring delivers a smooth, stable ride - regardless of how much cargo is on the trailer. It controls the movement of the jounce spring to minimize trailer body roll, bounce, rattle, and bottoming out.
- The trailing arm with integrated hanger attaches the suspension to the side and bottom of the trailer frame.
- The control arm carries the spindle and the hub. It pivots on strong, long-lasting polyurethane bushings that never require lubrication.
- The E-Z Lube, 2" lift spindle is simple to grease. If damaged, it can be removed and replaced, saving you both time and money compared to a traditional axle.
- The built-in hole accepts 2" x 3" steel tubing (not included) to add support to your trailer's frame. The tubing sits higher than a trailer axle, providing additional ground clearance.
Installing the Timbren Axle-Less Suspension
The first step in installing the Timbren Axle-Less suspension is to make sure that the mounting points for each unit are directly across from each other. The easiest way to measure this is to mark the desired mounting points on your trailer's frame. Then measure the distance between these points and the center of your trailer coupler. These measurements (A and B) need to be within 1/8" to keep your trailer frame square.
Once you have your mounting points lined up, you'll be ready to install the system. Drill 3 holes into your trailer frame at the desired mounting points. Then bolt each unit to the frame with Grade 5, 5/8" bolts (not included).
Keep Your Trailer Frame Square
Because Timbren's Axle-Less system eliminates your trailer's thru-axle, you'll have to find another way to get the crossbeam support that keeps your trailer frame square. You have a few different options to do this depending on your application and how much fabricating you're comfortable doing.
If you're building a trailer, the best option is to begin building with the Timbren Axle-Less in mind and include a crossmember where you want to install the units on your frame. You can also retrofit an existing trailer with a crossmember.
If you don't have a crossmember where you want to install the Axle-Less system (and you don't want to add one), pick up a section of 2" x 3" steel tubing from a nearby weld shop. This tubing will serve as a support to keep your trailer square. It will hang only about an inch down from your trailer frame, providing more clearance than a thru-axle.
After you've mounted both of the units to your frame, you'll need to drill 3 holes into the steel tubing and into the built-in, square holes. Then, insert the tubing through the holes and secure it with 3 bolts (not included) on each side.
The last option is to fabricate a reinforcement bracket that can be attached to the inside of your trailer frame and to the Axle-Less suspension. It may be a little harder to fabricate a compatible bracket than to mount steel tubing, but you may get additional clearance with this method.

Review from a similar Axle-Less Suspension in Trailer Axles
The axle-less suspension worked very well for my boat trailer. The suspension was easy to attach to the trailer frame and provided a lower profile than the traditional leaf spring and axle system.
Comments
After a year of use, still working well. The trailer tows well and the lower profile is helpful when launching.

Review from a similar Axle-Less Suspension in Trailer Axles
Installed the Timbren Axle-less suspension a little over a year ago and approximately 5000 miles ago. I have been extremely satisfied with the installation and performance thus far and have had no issues. I also chose to install an optional crossmember for more strength using a 1/4" thick piece of 2x3 steel. I had to increase the weight capacity of my campers suspension due to renovating the interior completely and adding more weight. I also strengthened the frame to accommodate the extra weight. In addition to installing the Timbren 5200LB system I installed new 12" electric brakes and upgraded to 225/75R15 tires with E load range rating.

Review from a similar Axle-Less Suspension in Trailer Axles
Very smooth pull. I'm very impressed on how the trailer pulls. My traditional axle trailer seemed to bounce a lot on the highway which made a lot of noise, but with the Timbren Axle-less that I installed on a new trailer, the trailer is so smooth and way less noise.
Great product.

Review from a similar Axle-Less Suspension in Trailer Axles
The trailer rides great down the road and no more worries about saltwater and rusty leaf springs. Not a cheap option but I’m very happy with the setup. When installing, just be sure to measure accurately and have sharp drill bits. A drill press type of guide also helps ensure correct drilling angles. The first picture is of a mounting gusset a local welding shop made. One is needed for each side and necessary to provide needed mounting strength-at least on my trailer frame. Pics 2 and 3 show the mounted suspension on one side of the trailer. Pic 4 shows the suspension on one side of the trailer with the axle attached and a separately purchased disc brake assembly mounted on it. Finally, pic 5 shows a 2” box channel between both suspension assemblies. Independent suspensions would have been nice, but I wanted to ensure trailer rigidity was maintained. So, after one year, so far, so good. It’s all smooth sailing down the highway.

Actually over a year, and still working great.

Incredible system. Handled our Overland trek through Colorado and Moab. These axles on our 1917 Ford bed ran multiple Jeep Badge of Honor trails. The suspension handled flawlessly. Handles off camber rocks and drop offs smoothly. We ran the 4 inch lift and off road offset to fit the factory Jeep wheels.

Review from a similar Axle-Less Suspension in Trailer Axles
I installed these on my single axle travel trailer to replace the axle and leaf springs. Weight savings was a wash with the required steel tube for added stability. I installed on an I-Beam using aluminum plate as a spacer. It took my friend and I 3 days to install everything. The hardest part was rerouting my black pipe propane line. I also had to install it just back of center due to a steel cross beam being in the way of the middle bolt hole. I replaced the brakes and hubs as well as the wheels to match the new hubs.
Overall we've been super happy with this upgrade. The trailer rides a lot smoother. I'm not finding random screws on the floor after a long bump ride.
We decided to do this after our leaf spring broke 2 times, 12k miles between. We were done dealing with a subpar suspension. I probably would not recommend doing this if your leaf springs are working for you. We put a lot of miles on our trailer. We aren't weekend campers.
Comments
1 year later still working great! Very happy with the performance. We have driven at least 20k miles with these springs and have not had a single issue. I also am happy I upgraded weight limits on everything.

Review from a similar Axle-Less Suspension in Trailer Axles
They have more pros than cons, but the second set I bought broke the flat plate that holds the spindle at about 8 months. The steel quality seemed less than I would expect since it basically peeled it back like a pop can as you can see in the pictures. Otherwise I like the clearance and ride. They last 2-3 years where the torsion axles I replaced would wear out in 4 months after driving down rough gravel roads. There is a grade zerk on the underside which I didn't realize until I bought the second set. That would have helped the first set last longer had I known about it.

Review from a similar Axle-Less Suspension in Trailer Axles
Pleased with ETRAILER, will order here again. Not as happy with the torsion axle setup. 2 inch square opening for tying both axles together with your own 2" square tubing are not shaped to match 2x2x1/8 tubing. Grinding and welding of tubing required to make it fit. Also found the overslung stub axle left the end of the pivot arm without much ground clearance though the unit was intended and spec'd for atv tire off road use. A pivot arm with mounting pads top and bottom would be better and allow the user to choose high or low clearance use. I found the units were perfectly suited to offroad use once I fabricated new mounting pads and welded them to the bottom of the arms.
Comments
After a year of off road use, I couldnt be happier. My trailer rides smooth loaded or unloaded. No of that bunny hopp with leaf springs or rigid mount axles. The small rebound control snubber works perfectly! I modified my components for high clearance but the concept is sound, they work well. Great job Timbren!

Review from a similar Axle-Less Suspension in Trailer Axles
Purchased 2 sets of the Timbren 1200 Axle-less systems for upgrading the suspension on an older 30' ft glider trailer. Single axle with small (13") tires made towing tough due to porpoising, dragging on drive entrances do to poor flotation; also German made and metric, no repair parts. GVW 2000 lbs equated to bouncy ride.
Dual sets now allow the trailer to ride over bumps and sharp inclines easily, smoothly, little bounce on country roads; porpoising is history. My glider now rides securely, safely, quietly.
Install time 4 1/2 hours (includes head-scratching). Results are outstanding, units are totally solid. Recommend the square tube interconnect, easy and quick - trailer frame was on the light side, so a precautionary fix. Clean look underneath.
Ordered 5 wheels w/tires, very nice.
Helpful neighbor so impressed he ordered a HD single set for his new DIY snowmobile trailer.
Customer satisfaction 100%, from phone order, online support, product information, immediate shipping, install instructions, followup... HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

I have just a little more to add regarding my purchase: Two sets, of the Timbren Axle-less assemblies, 1200 lb, and 5 wheels. I placed the order via phone, and whoever was on-call that day provided great answers and recommendations regarding the units, wheels and tires. At 31 feet, the trailer originally exhibited amplified porpoising on any bumps or dips in the road. Also bouncing and occasional sideways tipping due to the single axle. It made a lot of noise on my mountain community washboards. I speculated that the Timbren units would solve most, if not all of these problems and they have. Installation on my older 31 ft European ie, metric and no longer manufactured glider trailer was a mere 4.5 hours from removal of the old single axle to setting the trailer back down on its new assemblies. Instructions are complete, precise, useful and helpful. Appreciated. Little to comment on as installation was all straight-forward. I would like to describe the maiden voyage to the airport and back, but there is nothing to tell, other than it towed beautifully proper alignment instructions, and all that I viewed from the rear view mirror looked like a magic carpet ride. It rides over washboards and pot holes like a marathon hurdler, the 4-wheel independent suspension is great. Packaging: the shipping boxes all arrived in good condition, but the cardboard component boxes inside them... not so much. Most were ripped and open due to heavy components lightly surrounded with brown packing paper, just token amounts. Parts: all was accounted for minus a pair of spindle axle washers for one set, easily replaced at the local farm and ranch supply. No squawk, just an fyi. I am very pleased with your product and support, and was happy to leave a 5-star review with photos. The upgraded suspension was also a topic this past weekend at the glider port by those who regularly trailer their ships to various soaring events, some as far as a thousand miles away. My compliments to eTrailers, hope you can use my info,

Review from a similar Axle-Less Suspension in Trailer Axles
I used these axles in a different way than most would. I needed a trailer that was small, could handle tight switch-backs, carry 600 lbs and be light. I had this idea and as a retired design engineer I saw a great possibility in this axle. I have made four of these trailers now, one as a camp trailer, 2 for trail work for State Parks and one as a utility trailer.

Review from a similar Axle-Less Suspension in Trailer Axles
Very exicited about these axels, I have been eyeing these for over a year. (Excellent service from etrailer, they had my parts to me in 1 day from the time of placing the order.) These axles seem to be well made and fit nicely with the Dexter hub and drum assembly and the 12" electric brake kit. I installed this all on a M1101/M1102 trailer frame after removing the factory axel assembly. I have not ran these on the road or off as of yet but will give another review at that time. The fit and finish are great and the packaging was good, a little banged up from shipping (missing 1 washer)

Review from a similar Axle-Less Suspension in Trailer Axles
The spring part seems weak. It has held up so far. Drove 3000 miles 1500 with a load of about 1200 lbs. Handles well on hiway but off road, like my gravel sandy clay road with wash boards, cattle guards and bumps, uneven terrain yet not serious off road altogether, the things are tipping at times and slowy becoming lower and less travel. Occasional the entire trailer bounces in air. These will need replacement before too much longer and seem a bit weak over all. Nice quiet sound and overall great but just not heavy enough to hold up off the smooth hiway

Timbren saved our RV road trip! The leafs on the axle on our 2018 Jayco TT came apart while driving in Maryland. We tried going to the manufacturer, but they were useless. Going to a RV mechanic meant being grounded for at least 2 months. Then we found Timbren. With the help of Timbren's excellent staff we purchased axle-less system through etrailer, who made sure we got as quick as possible. It came ahead of schedule, my husband installed the Timbren system and we were back on the road! The axle-less system is better than the original manufacturers. If you plan on taking your RV or TT farther than 100 miles GET THIS INSTALLED and get it through etrailer.

These units install easily, are well made, and perform great! The trailer doesn't bounce around like you see a lot of trailers do while traveling down a bumpy road. I traveled some unpaved roads with no issues. I am certainly glad I went axleless. I installed with 15" tires. Problem is I didn't go big enough.
I intended to install on an existing trailer that I had. Changed my mind and built a new trailer. The new trailer came in heavier than I had planned. 2k pound capacity is now too small. I have to watch what I load the trailer with so I don't over load the suspension. I intend on buying the 3500 pound units when I have the money.

See what our Experts say about this Timbren Trailer Axles
- Will Timbren Axle Less Kit Installed on 1/8 inch Thick Frame Rail Require Additional BracingSounds like your frame dimensions would be thick enough to handle the install of the # TASR5200S05 since it's 1/8 inch thick steel channel. It is harder to say though without seeing the frame and it's design aside from thickness. You might check with a local fabricator to see if they agree, which I think they will, if you wanted to err on the side of caution.
view full answer... - What Tool to Use to Snug Down Castle Nut of Timbren Axle Less SystemUsually when installing axle nuts like the castle nut that comes with the Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension System # TASR5200S05 you referenced you use a set of channel locks to snug the nut down. The reason for this is you don't really need to torque down the nut so using a wrench isn't recommended or needed since the amount of torque is so low. Typically you snug the nut down so that the hub is fully seated and then run the cotter pin through the spindle.

view full answer... - Switching to Timbren Axle-Less Suspension for 2012 Coachmen ClipperI have a solution for you, but the Timbren Axle-Less Trailer suspension # TASR5200S05 is not the best option because of the stiffness of the springs that this system uses. The 5200-lb Axle-less system springs are meant to carry a much heavier load than the approximately 2500-lb Coachmen Clipper, and when you use an overrated suspension system you're potentially causing way more jostling, bouncing and in turn, wear and tear on your camper. The Timbren Heavy-Duty Axle-Less Trailer Suspension...
view full answer... - Will Timbren 5200lb Axle-Less TASR5200S05 Have Same Ride Quality As Timbren Axle-Less 3500 HD?I would be happy to help! The Timbren Axle-Less 5200lb Suspension # TASR5200S05 you were looking at will have a stiffer ride than the same trailer with the 3500lb HD kit, the # TASR35HDS07. Both kits have the same 2" lift and use the same hub and drums, the # AKHD-655-6-EZ-K, with the main difference being the built in progressive rate AEON main spring. If you are loading the trailer close to 3500lbs I don't think the ride quality change will be glaringly obvious, but if the trailer is...
view full answer... - Replacing Existing 3500 lb Axle With a 5200 lb AxleWhen replacing a trailer axle, the spring seat spacing isn't super-critical because you can always relocate those by obtaining new spring seats and having them tacked into place where you need them. The hub face to hub face distance is what's critical. What's the hub face dimension of your current axles? We offer 5.2K axles in the 3 most popular lengths (hub face to hub face) of 86-1/2 inches, 89 inches or 95 inches. • 86-1/2 inch E-Z Lube axle, part # 8327816 for the axle only or # 8327816-EB...

- Can Torsion Axle Spindles be Replaced on 2013 Rockwood 8280WS Fifth WheelSpindles can be replaced for torsion axles, though you would have to get them removed and put on by a professional welder. I have added a link to our selection of spindles for you to check out to see if we have one that matches the capacity and measurements you need. Another option worth considering is replacing the axle with the Timbren Axle-Less Suspension System. These are simply bolted or welded so you do not have to worry about finding an axle or spindle that meets any specific measurements....

- Recommended Replacement 5,200 Pound Axle for Extreme Boat TrailerWhile we may have an option for you, if you are strictly looking for a 5200 pound axel that has a dip in the middle, we do not carry any axle beams that have that specific dip you need. With that being said, a great option is the Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension System # TASR5200S05. Since the axle-less system comes does not come with a crosstube, you do not need to worry about the axle interfering with the trailer/boat. As far as installation, the Timbrens can be bolted or welded directly...
view full answer... - Hub and Drum Compatibility For Timbren Axle-less Suspension 5200-lbsIf you're going to use the Timbren Axle-less Suspension System 5200-lbs with brake flanges installed, like the 2" lift model # TASR5200S05 or 4" lift # TASR5200S03 , those are compatible with the Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly - 5.2K and 6K E-Z Lube Axles - 12" - 6 on 5-1/2 - Pre-Greased # AKHD-655-6-EZ-K since they have compatible inner/outer bearings, races and grease seals. However, the # AKHD-655-6-EZ-K are not compatible with the Timbren Axle-less Suspension # ASR5200S01 because the...
view full answer... - Recommended Hub and Drum Assembly for 5,200 and 7,000 Pound Timbren Axle-Less Trailer SuspensionLike any trailer suspension, you would be overloading it if you had all the weight on a single tire. Not just the suspension but other components as well. We do not have an option that includes the hub, bearings, and brakes for the 5,200 lb and 7,000 lb Timbren but I would be happy to recommend parts for a complete setup. The # TASR5200S05 and # TASR7KS01 use the same bearing combination so the same parts will work for both. For a hub and drum assembly with the bearings, races, and seal...
view full answer... - Solution for Custom Axle Replacement on REMEQ Boat TrailerI do have a solution for a replacement, but we do not create custom axles here at etrailer. For your REMEQ boat trailer I recommend using the Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension System. This system fits any frame width so you would not have to worry about the axle length for a replacement. Assuming you need a 5,200 lb axle like the # e45GR you were looking at, we have the # TASR5200S05. We have other options as well like the # ASR3500S05 for replacing a 3,500 lb axle or the # ASR2KHDS01...
view full answer... - Brake Assembly and Hub/Drums that Fit Timbren Axle Less Kit TASR5200S05Yes all three of the parts you mentioned are compatible with each other. The Axle kit part # TASR5200S05 fits the hub/drum # AKHD-655-6-K which also fits the brake assemblies # AKEBRK-7-SA. This will work with a wheel that has a 6 on 5-1/2 inch bolt pattern.
view full answer... - 5,200 Lb Timbren Axle-Less System With Compatible Hub, Drum and Electric BrakesThe Warner-style brake assemblies are no longer made and replacement parts are essentially non-existent at this point, so really your best option is going to be replacing your hub and drum as well as brake assemblies. You may also need to weld on a new brake mounting flange, which will be determined by the diameter of your axle. In order to find the correct replacement hubs for your trailer you need to know the weight rating of your axle, and also what bearings your current hub has. You...

view full answer... - Everything Needed for Upgrading a Jayco Travel Trailer's Axles from 3500 Pounds to 5200 PoundsUpgrading your axles to 5200 pounds is possible, but there's a lot more involved than just that and the wheels: You will need to upgrade your suspension (leaf springs) and your brakes. For that reason, I recommend going with one of our Timbren Axle-less systems. They act as the axle and the suspension, and they work independently which reduces the odds of uneven terrain affecting the entire axle. The 2" Lift Spindle w/ Brake Flange - 5,200 lbs, part # TASR5200S05, has the 5200-lb capacity...
view full answer... - Timbren Axle-Less Suspension Options With 2 Inch Lift SpindleI checked with the manufacturer, and there isn't an option for a 2 inch lift for the 2,200 lb Timbren systems. The only options that have a 2 inch lift are the 3,500 lb-rated and 5,200 lb-rated Timbren systems, and they each come with a brake flange welded on, though if you don't want to use brakes you don't have to use that flange. So if you want to go to a higher-rated system with the 2 inch lift you can use either of the following: - 3,500 lbs: Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension...
