My brother just bought a 1998 Sailfish and he needs a trailer for it! The Loadrite 9000 and the Venture 9200 trailers were recommended. The Loadrite uses torsion bar suspension and the Venture uses leaf springs. Other than that, the 2 trailers are very similar. How well do the torsion bar suspensions hold up? How long do they last? It seems to me that they would let water into the axle tubes and cause the tubes to rust out. Has any ever had to replace the torsion bars or axle tubes on a trailer with torsion bar suspension?
We have much experience with leaf spring suspensions on boat trailers and our current trailers' leaf spring suspensions have lasted 20 years and are still going strong? Will the torsion bar suspensions last like that?
Thanks,
Ron
