Pohl Transportation switched our entire trailer fleet to Liteflex composite springs about 10 years ago as we found them to be more reliable, economical and operationally efficient than the alternatives. Given this experience, I would definitely recommend Liteflex composite springs to anyone looking to improve their operations.

Dibble Trucking has been using Liteflex Springs for over 20 years. We are currently running them on 70 of our MC331 LP trailers. The ride is comparable to Air Ride and much lighter than steel springs. Very impressive given the weight we carry and the miles we travel. Thank you for a great product!
