I'm in the market for a 24' enclosed trailer. I can purchase a new 24' enclosed trailer with 5200# spring axles, or 5200# torsion axles for $1000 more ($5800 Cargo Mate vs. $6800 Pace).
What are the pros & cons fro going with the cheaper spring axles. I'm using the trailer for towing in the Texas CMC region.
Thanks for any input.
Randy

torsion bar axles give you a lower ride height and CG, with the same suspension travel.
