For trailers carrying tall payloads or operating on rough roads, the drop in height (B) can be set to 60 mm or 90 mm to balance stability with clearance.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eMeasurement guidance for precise fit\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo ensure a perfect fit, Trojan builds each axle to your measurements.
