ROCKER ARMS
Locate the rocker arms (Ref. No. 6 of Detail A in Dia-
gram D. Note that the center bushing has a grease
zerk in it. Position the rocker arms up into the cen-
ter channel welded in the center of the tandem spring
bracket so that the grease zerk is pointing down. Align
the holes in the channel with the rocker arm. Secure in
place with a 3/4” x 4-1/2” hex bolt and lock nut. Tight-
en. Repeat this process on the other rocker arm and
spring bracket. Grease the rocker at this time by ap-
plying grease through the zerk just discussed.
NOTE: The grease zerk is positioned down so that
it is accesible for servicing when needed.
SPRINGS
Position the axles so they are properly aligned with the
trailer. Position the brake axle so that the disc brake
calipers are on the back side of the axle. The brake
axle must always be mounted as the rear axle to give
you the best braking possible (See Diagram D. There
is no right and left to the axle without brakes. It can be
mounted either way.
Place the springs on the topside of the spring pads
welded to the axle. (See chassis diagram). Note that
the hook end of the spring must be to the rear of the
trailer. Place a spring clamp on the top center of the
spring as shown. Next place the 1/2” x 6-1/2” U-bolts
down over the top of the spring clamp, spring and axle
as shown.
