help.... what's best?
i'm building a 20' g/n and i just ordered 2 brand new dexters to slap under it. now i have to decided which suspension system to get. i have a choice of three, the torsion setup, the shackle setup or the slipper setup. can someone shed some light for me as to what the advantage of the slipper style setup has over the double eye... and vice versa!
thanx

If you have done the research, and the axles are all going to carry the same load equally I would go with the torsion axles. IMHO they are going to be the least amount of trouble and it is a lot smoother ride for whatever you are hauling and on the ride of the truck.
Good luck in your decision.

well i went ahead and got the slipper spring setup.i'm not really worried about the ride as i will be hauling the tractor and implements with it so perfect ride quality is not my high priority. i was looking for what would be strongest and last the longest. anywho i have everything all tacked up and ready to be double checked and completely welded up.
