Motorcycle Trailer

Long story short: my question is a simple one. My father bought a motorcycle trailer for his goldwing and until I can solve his problem, I cant get to working on my bike ! The trailer was a DIY special, that he got for a good price. The trailers suspension system is in bad shape, it is leaking oil (the shock absorbers) and is in an un-usable state. We have tried every search imaginable but we cant find anything. We will need one around tenish inches from eye to eye.. Ideas?

can you take the shock down to an auto parts store and try and match it up?

get a air shock, they are adjustable

scooter/moped shocks perhaps?

Try calling the manufacturer of the trailer. Never saw one with shocks (from small bike trailers to large excavator trailers), is it enclosed?

how about a single wheel trailer?

Is that measurement fully expanded or fully compressed ? Just take the shock to an experienced parts man and he can fix you up.

aaaah....motorcycle trailer...lol...got it.

Like others said, just match up some 10" shocks, you can search "10" shocks" on Ebay too.
