Ridewell Suspensions's Ridelite is a lightweight, 25,000-lb, .-cap. integrated suspension trailer system designed for platform, tank, dump, grain and specialized trailers.

A variety of 5-in. round, non-captured axles make it possible to replace or maintain axles while preserving other parts.

Speed Set alignment allows 1-in. adjustment at the hanger. Pre-mounted shock brackets and attachable, no-weld valve mounts also contribute to ease of installation.
