to shock or not to shock, that is the question?????????

Got them on mine.

I would install them if you don't have them.

Monroe has a kit that make things a little easier.

I'm going to try these too:http://dexteraxle.com/e_z_flex_suspension

yea, the brackets are all there but no shocks!!!!!!!!

Even easier!

A trailer supplier should be able to hook you up.

Measure the distance between the mounts before you call.

I was thinking about adding those Monroes. I think they'd help keep the thinks in my cabinets from getting tossed around.

My buddy had coil-overs on a custom 2-axle jet ski trailer he built in his garage. It had 4-wheel independent suspension. He worked for WestCoast performance back in the day, and would carry about 10 skis on his trailer, along with a bunch of race gear.

That trailer was sweet. You could cruise right over rail crossings and not even feel the trailer back there.

just thought it would be a better ride in the truck if the trailer wasn't trying to bounch the back of the truck as much. the wife and kids like to sleep while going down the road as well....(fifth wheel).......hehehehehehehehe!!!!!

I had shocks on my 35' Cedar Creek, it seemed to pull very good and nothing bounced around inside. It sure didn't hurt having them on.
