Silent Ride SuspensionA suspension is judged by how well it protects a loaded trailer from road shock and vibration.

If your load is valuable livestock, or a product affected by shock and vibration, or you just want a smooth quiet trailer, Silent Ride is the only sensible solution. And with zero maintenance, the financial justification for this upgrade couldn't be easier.
Silent Ride is a unique design: A walking beam riding on a single pivot point creates the most equalised trailer suspension on the market. Progressive rubber "springs" work just as well loaded or unloaded. When your trailer is empty, the trailer will not bounce around thanks to the rubber rebound spring, so you are guaranteed a safe, smooth ride at all times.

Components
Aeon® springThe jounce spring - or Aeon® spring - is the heart of the Silent Ride suspension. Its unique shape and progressive spring rate allow for variable load conditions. |
BushingsBonded rubber bushings are press fitted, allowing the outside of the bushing to be fully engaged in the control arm. The result is an extremely durable, long-lasting bushing that requires no maintenance. |
Rebound SpringThis spring acts as a shock absorber creating constant tension on the jounce spring. When your trailer is empty, the trailer will not bounce around. You are guaranteed a safe, smooth ride at all times. |
Unlike most suspensions, the Silent Ride works just as well loaded or unloaded. Made of natural rubber, the ride is always smooth and quiet. Aeon® springs have been tested and proven on rough terrain and in harsh environments for over 50 years.
