GENERAL INFORMATION
Installation instructions, ride height calculations, welding instructions, torque specifications, and hanger placement can be found in
publication XL-MS175 on the SAF-HOLLAND website www.safholland.us. Warranty is 5 years parts and labor. Duralite suspensions
by design require a minimum amount of maintenance, however, suspensions in “over the road” operations require periodic checks
to be certain of continued trouble-free performance. We recommend, after an initial loaded run-in period of at least 1,000 miles,
that you recheck the trailer axle alignment and retorque all fasteners, including U-bolts. Routine visual inspection and appropriate
maintenance of suspension is required every six months or 25,000 miles, whichever comes first. This includes inspecting and re-
torquing all fasteners and U-bolts as required.

MOUNTING HEIGHT SPRING SEAT SELECTION
I M P O R T A N T : It is the installer’s responsibility to select the correct mounting height. There should be at least 4½” of vertical tire clearance
with an unloaded vehicle. In addition, clearance must be provided at the side, front, and rear of the tires to prevent tire contact during suspension
movement. The mounting heights, shown below, are nominal values and may vary due to variations in the leaf springs and other components.
I M P O R T A N T : Mounting heights should not exceed 17½˝ for best performance. Mounting height should provide a minimum
of 4 ½˝ of tire clearance with an empty vehicle. This table applies to under mount or flange mount hangers on a multi-axle suspension.
For single axle suspensions, subtract ½˝ from the above heights. For straddle mount hangers, subtract ½˝ from above heights.
I M P O R T A N T : Mounting heights less than 4 ½˝ are not suggested due to lack of clearance between
the axle and trailer frame. Mounting height should provide a minimum of 4 ½˝ of tire clearance with an empty
vehicle. Sufficient clearance should be provided for axle movement. This table applies to under mount or flange
mount hangers with a multi-axle suspension. For single axle suspensions, subract ½˝ from the above heights. For
straddle mount hangers, subract ½˝ from the above heights.
