SPRINGS

Position the axle so it is properly aligned with the trailer. Place the

springs on the topside of the spring pads welded to the axle. (See

Diagram D). Note that the hook end of the spring must be mounted

to the rear of the trailer. Place a spring clamp on the top center of

the spring as shown. Next place the ½” x 6 ½” U-bolts down over

the top of the spring clamp, spring and axle as shown.

Place the spring and axle U-bolt plate onto the ends of the two U-

bolts just placed. Secure in place with ½” lock nuts. Thread onto

the U-bolts but do not tighten securely until the complete unit is in

position on the trailer. Repeat on the other spring.

AXLE

Place one of the spring bracket bushings into the rear of the spring

bracket and secure with a 9/16” x 3 1/4” hex bolt and hex lock nut.

Repeat in other spring bracket.

Position the axle under the frame, then hook the hook loop of the

spring around the bushings just installed. Note that if the axle is

positioned too low when trying to hook, the hooks will not hook

around the bushings.

Raise the front of the springs up so they align with the front hole of

the spring bracket. Secure in place with 9/16” x 3 ¼” hex bolts and

lock nuts.

Tighten all axle U-bolts and spring bolts not tightened at this time.

TIRE AND WHEEL ASSEMBLIES

Mount the tire and wheel assemblies using the ½” ﬁne threaded

tapered lug nuts provided. Tighten to 85-95 ft/lb. of torque using the

rotation pattern as shown in the ShoreLandr’s Owners Manual.

Re-torque the lug nuts after 50 miles of driving and then periodi-

cally thereafter.
