So Im starting to plan a trailer build with an independent suspension. Im not looking for those in favor, against, or anything else. Im going to do an AT/Aussie style set up. I have everything spec'ed out and most are purchased or in my possession. 6K axle, D2600 airbags, ProComp shocks.
So here is my question: With my geometry, and steel sizes my shocks will be the limiting factor in suspension travel. About 6.5 inches, which seems ok to me. My truck has about 8" (Tundra). What would the best split of up and down be? 4/2.5, 3/3.5 etc. Is there a reason to split it even or anticipate the need for more up vs down. Just curious to see what the consensus, if there is one, is.
