North Central South Dakota
We have a 2016 Wilson Pacesetter 50' triple axle air ride trailer. When the air is dropped from suspension the frame rails drop all the way down onto the tires and rub if we drive it. Problem with this is when dumping at certain pits and piling conveyors at the elevator where you have to dump front and rear hoppers separate and pull ahead between, the tires rub on the frame rails and panels that enclose the rear end. If we ever blow an air bag we wouldn't be able to drive it home this way either. Wondering if there's a way we can put stops or blocks in the suspension to keep it from dropping so far when air is dumped.
