    Front leaf springs

    The trailer will stay with the tandems. I'll create a build thread for the trailer when the project starts, currently working on the airbrake conversion to the m816 wrecker. The axles will be gutted on the trailer for less rolling resistance.

    Front leaf springs

    4 roughly 12ft chain legs with 4 shortening hooks on 1 ring. Works great when needed but when bundled up it looks like that haha.

    Front leaf springs

    Air ride is outside the trailer budget haha. The trailer chassis will be shortened to roughly the end of the cab protector (minus the hitch section).

    Front leaf springs

    Pintle. Axle (or axles) will be near the rear of the trailer. Taking the m51a2 remains and turning it into a trailer. Plan is to have the bed swappable and will be mounted at the rear of the trailer. Between the hitch and the bed/beds will be generator, welder, and tools.

    Front leaf springs

    What is the weight rating of the front leaf springs on the 5 ton trucks? Planning a trailer project and trying to figure out if I can use just 1 rear axle with the front leaf springs, or if it will require the stock rear suspension. Maximum trailer weight including payload would be 25-30k.
