SPRINGFIELD, Mo. — Ridewell Suspensions has unveiled the RAR-200 Narrow-Top trailer suspension in a 23,000 lb. capacity rating. Weighing in at less than 244 pounds, depending on ride height, the Narrow-Top is lighter than Ridewells RideLite due to its narrow hanger and trailing arm.

The Narrow-Top is equipped with the new FiberTech bushing at the pivot. Front and rear wings are integral to the hanger and provide lateral stability, easy installation and direct integration to the frame crossmembers, explains the manufacturer.

Additional features of Ridewells 200NT include non-captured axle; pre-located height control valve mounting; patented contoured axle seat; axle alignment adjustment capacity at the hanger; and mounting heights from 14 to 17.

The Narrow-Top suspension is designed for tanker, flatbed, grain, container chassis and bottom dump trailers.
