Yes, I understand that. Pin weight aside, my suspension is most limited by my axles 12,000 lbs ((2) @ 6k each), then GVWR @ 14,300 lbs, then rims @ 15000 lbs ((4) @ 3750 each), then the tires @ 16,300 lbs. I may have over done it with the tires, but as the only component in that list that is expected to wear out / be replaced during the life of the trailer, I want a little piece of mind. Now I'm wondering if I should add IS, or axle manufacturer offers a kit adding shocks to the suspension. We are likely getting Trailair pinbox this winter.
