Signs Your Caravan or Camper Trailer Shocks Need Replacing
Off-road towing subjects your caravan’s suspension to massive kinetic energy. Over time, internal fluid seals degrade. Look out for these signs that it is time for a replacement pair:
-
- Oil Leaking Down the Body: If you notice wet oil residue collecting on the outer housing of the shock absorber body, the internal seals have failed.
- Excessive Trailer Bounce: If your camper continues to rock or bounce repeatedly after hitting a bump, the shock is no longer controling the spring recoil.
- Scalloped Tyre Wear: Worn dampers cause wheels to track unevenly, leading to unique cupped or scalloped wear blocks across your tyre treads.
Why Choose LoadForce Oil-Filled Shock Absorbers?
Unlike standard gas shocks which can ride too stiffly on lighter trailers, oil-filled velocity-sensitive shock absorbers provide smooth, reliable dampening tailored for trailing arm and leaf spring rates. This reduces body roll, controls sway, and protects your caravan’s internal cabinetry from structural vibration damage.
