Final Assembly Instructions
Remove the small parts from the frame by cutting the
bands. Remove the bolt bag and sort all the nuts and bolts
by size.
Springs:
Mount the springs under the axle with the 1/2” X 6-1/2”
axle u-bolts from the top down. Install the spring plate
under the axle. Tighten with 1/2” flange lock nuts evenly.
Fenders:
Install the fenders and spring bracket assembly to the side
frame using 1/2” u-bolts (Ref.#12) in the area that would
best provide the proper tongue weight.
Rocker Arm:
Align center hole of 6239210, rocker arm, with the center
hole of the spring bracket. Secure with 3/4” X 4-1/2” hex
bolt from the outside-in. Tighten with a 3/4” hex lock nut.
Axle:
Make certain hook end of the springs point in the same
direction to the rear of the trailer - on both axles! Place one
of the spring bushings (Ref.#66) into the rear of the spring
bracket and secure with a 9/16” X 3-1/4” hex bolt and 9/16”
hex lock nut. Repeat on the other side. Position the axle
under the frame, then hook the spring loop around the
bushing just installed. Raise the axle assembly up so the
front of the springs line up with the front spring bracket
hole. Insert the other two (2) 9/16” X 3-1/4” hex bolts and
9/16” hex lock nuts. Tighten all nuts and bolts but do not
over tighten. Allow the spring room enough to move.
Mount the tire and rim assemblies using 80-90 ft. lbs. of
torque on the lug nuts using a proper tightening procedure.
Tongue:
Install the 9’ tongue wire and grommet in the tongue.
Install the tongue into the nose cone of the trailer frame.
Secure the tongue plate cover (Ref.#4) and the rear of the
tongue with a 1/2” X 1-1/2” hex bolt, 1/2” flat washer and
1/2” hex lock nut. Secure the tongue into the side of the
frame tongue cap using a 1/2” X 4” hex bolt and 1/2” flange
lock nut. Tighten both bolts. Install the coupler on the
tongue and secure with one (1) 1/2” X 4” and two (2) 1/2” X
1” hex bolts. Tighten using 1/2” flange lock nuts. Do not
overtighten.
Actuator & Safety Chain:
Slide the actuator (Ref.#107) into the actuator housing
unit (Ref.#105) and secure with two (2) pins and snap
rings provided with the actuator. Secure the actuator -
