STEP 4 – Axle Assembly
1. Secure the leaf spring mounting brackets in the square holes on each side of the trailer with the
carriage bolt 3/8 X 3/4” and 3/8 lock nut using 9/16 socket; the round holes of the brackets should
be oriented closest to the center.
2. Where there is no cross-channel at the fastening location of the mounting bracket use a 9/16"
washer as a spacer.
3. Lay the axle between the mounting brackets.
4. Place the springs inside the mounting bracket with eye of the spring towards the front and the
flat side towards the back of the trailer. Secure the spring to mounting bracket with the 9/16-18
UNF X 3” hex bolts and 9/16 lock nuts using 7/8" socket and wrench.
5. Do not over-tighten as there needs to be movement in the spring. Do this for both sides.
6. Place the first U-bolt around the axle. Line up the leaf spring mount plate with the oval holes run-
ning in the same direction as your leaf spring. Hand-tighten with the 3/8 locking nut. Repeat for
all other U-bolts.
7. Secure all the U-bolts with a 9/16" socket.
8. Using two people, flip the frame.
CAUTION! FLIPPING THE TRAILER OVER REQUIRES TWO PEOPLE!

fully into position.
2. Feed each wire of the wire harness between the tongue channel and separate your wire as
follows.
• Yellow wire and brown wire on the driver’s side
• Green wire and brown wire on the passenger’s side
• Do not pull the white wire through, you will secure it to the coupler channel once it’s as-
sembled.
3. Slide the tongue connection bracket in place and hand tighten using the 3/8 X 3/4” flange
bolts on top.
4. On the bottom, in the four pre-drilled holes, secure with the cutting screws using a 1/2" socket.
5. Secure the top bolts using 9/16" socket.
6. Tighten all the bolts of the trailer frame using a 9/16" socket and wrench. If you are going
to add a plywood sheet before using the trailer, you don’t need to tighten the top bolts
until the plywood has been added.
