Re: [VAC] Henschen Dura-FLEX axle
The question arose as a result of a failure to get a 'hit' on "Henschen" and
"Dura-Torque", and 5 hits on "Henschen" and "Dura-Flex"... all 5 are
manufacturers of utility trailers, boat trailers, etc., who are using the
"Henschen Dura-Flex"suspension system... essentially a big fat rubber band
running through the axle, with torsion arms offset at each end. I suspect
that the Dura-Flex is used in smaller, lighter applications, whereas the
Dura-Torque is for RV's and travel trailers... was wondering if/what the
difference was... so...
I will indeed contact Jim Kitzmiller, and once again find myself in your
debt, Bill. Thanks...
