Thread: Boat trailer clearance (engineers pls )

I'm looking at options to temporary lift my trailer , as when and if I'm going into the high country lakes I've got no clearance . From the photos do you think that the trailer could be lifted at this point ? By bolting the whole section lower under the trailer frame .

You could add a length of RHS under the main chassis between the spring hanger frame, bolt the hanger frame to the packer RHS & then use u-bolts to hold the whole lot together. Using u-bolts is common practice for trailer spring frame mounts to chassis as then the axle position can be move fore and aft to get correct draw bar download and balance.

Do a spring over job. Put the axle under the spring rather than on top of it. Quick and simple.
