Adjusting height on Dexter Torflex Axles
Re: 93 Coachmen TT. Seems the trailer is too low as the holding tank connections are only a few inches off the ground. Is there a way to adjust the height on these axles? Thanks!!

Most non adjustable rubber torsion axles will come at about a 22 degree downward angle. Lift the trailer up and see what the angle of the arms are. Compare that to the "loaded" angle. If they are level, either the rubber is old or they were set at a bad angle from the factory. The torsion arm should travel upward with a load and max out at about level which gives it the maximum leverage. They can work starting at level, but that isn't the best situation since the leverage decreases with the increase in the load.
As stated above, the rubber could be wore out. Remember, 25 years is about as much as you can expect out of them.
