Why Brakes and Suspension Matter
Your towable’s braking system and suspension don’t just affect comfort—they directly impact safety, handling, and stopping distance. Worn brakes, weak bushings, or damaged shackles can lead to dangerous situations on the highway. That’s why regular inspections and timely maintenance are essential.
