The Hutch 9700 Series remains the
leader in our long and distinguished line of
trailer suspension systems. Hutch Suspensions
incorporate innovative thinking that results
in a durable and reliable system that not only
extends service life, reduces downtime and
protects your cargo but also provides a
smooth and comfortable ride.
The 9700 Series suspensions are available in single and tandem configurations.
In addition to standard overslung configuration, an underslung configuration is available for reduced mounting heights. Mounting height (Mtg/ht) is the distance from the center line of the axle to the top of the spring hangers.
All 9700 Series suspensions are available with either fabricated or cast hangers and rockers. These hangers come in various styles.
Spring seats and U-bolts to fit 5" round axles (shown below) are standard. These spring seats range in height from 3/4" to 4 3/4".
Determine the mounting height (Mtg/ht) your application requires. For you convience, a Mounting Height Chart may be found below. From this chart please note that mounting height is dependent upon:
