FAQs
What is the maximum load capacity for these suspension units?
Each pair of AB Tools Trsp33 suspension units has a maximum weight capacity of 500kg.
Are hubs included with these suspension units?
No, hubs are not included but are available separately in the AB Tools shop. These units are designed to fit standard 1" trailer stub axles.
What type of stub axle do these units fit?
They are fitted with standard 1" trailer stub axles.
Are these units suitable for light use?
While durable, their heavy-duty construction is optimized for daily business use. For very light or infrequent trailer use, they might be more robust than necessary.
What makes the solid suspension arm better than hollow ones?
The solid arm provides greater strength and is less prone to rusting compared to cheaper hollow box section suspension arms, leading to a longer lifespan.
Do I need any special tools for installation?
Standard trailer maintenance tools for securing bolts and nuts will be required. Specific tools for hub mounting might also be necessary depending on your hub type.
Troubleshooting
Suspension unit is noisy or clunks
Check that all mounting bolts securing the suspension unit to the trailer frame are tight. Also, ensure the hub is securely attached and the castle nut is correctly tightened with a split pin.
Uneven trailer ride or handling
Verify that the weight is evenly distributed on the trailer. Ensure both suspension units are correctly installed and functioning. Check for any damage or excessive wear on either unit.
Hub not fitting correctly
Confirm that the suspension unit is designed for a standard 1" trailer stub axle. Ensure the hub being used is compatible with this axle size and the suspension unit's mounting specifications. Mounting hole sizes should be compared against the product image.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These suspension units are designed to fit standard 1" trailer stub axles. Ensure your trailer is equipped with the correct size stub axle before installation.

Care Instructions:
- Periodically check all mounting bolts and hub nuts for tightness.
- Clean the suspension arms and surrounding areas with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris, especially if exposed to corrosive materials.
- Inspect for any signs of wear or damage, though the heavy-duty construction minimizes this risk.
