Description

Overview

Freighter VE50 suspension rocker is the cast equaliser that links the spring ends in the mechanical suspension and lets the axle group share load through the centre pivot. It suits the VE50 9’1 tri-axle layout, so it is the right replacement when the original rocker shows bore wear, cracked cast sections, or damaged spring contact faces. A worn rocker can also upset suspension movement through the equaliser position, which then puts more stress into the surrounding bush and pin hardware.

Features

• Cast equaliser for Freighter VE50 mechanical suspension
• 9’1 tri-axle spread application
• Dimension guide A 465mm, B 585mm, C 122mm
• Load-sharing rocker design for leaf spring suspension

Compliance and Safety

Inspect the centre bore, end faces, and surrounding hanger and pin hardware before fitting, because extra movement in those areas can damage a new rocker quickly. Replace worn bushes, pins, washers, and fasteners at the same time when the suspension has visible play, cracking, or oval wear through the working surfaces.

Trailer Applications

The Freighter VE50 suspension rocker works in the equaliser position on tri-axle mechanical suspension, where it balances spring movement between axles as the trailer travels over uneven ground. It is the part to change when the existing rocker has worn through the bush area, cracked around the ends, or no longer holds the suspension geometry properly.
