Equalizer Suspension System


Talbert Manufacturing, a trailer system manufacturer based in Rensselaer, Ind., has introduced its Equalizer, a nitrogen-assisted dampening system that hydraulically transfers loads in all terrains. The company says the Equalizer features a distinctive suspension system that oscillates around a central self-tracking pivot point to provide proportionate weight distribution in each axle grouping, regardless of varying road conditions. According to Talbert, The Equalizer also incorporates a dual 2-speed landing gear, which makes connecting the trailer to the axle attachment much easier. The product’s design also allows the axle attachment to be lifted out of the way easily for backing. The company says The Equalizer allows a 14-foot, 1-inch spread with 54-inch axle spacing; and a 14-foot, 7-inch spread with 60-inch axle spacing. The system is powered by a Honda gas engine power pack as standard.
