I think Don will find out he made a BIG mistake in the long run with spring ride bans. The long term maintenance will be much higher on the spring ride trailers if they are pulled many miles. The trailers and the non suspension parts will literally be shook apart from the bouncing.
I know this for a fact. I have two grain trailers. They are the same exact age,7 years old. Same brand and size. I have owned them since they where two years old. The spring ride has had to have the frame welded in several places in the last year. All were fatigue cracks. The air ride is still in fine shape. The spring ride is traded off on a new air ride one right now.
I will second the freight issues/damage they will have with the spring ride trailers. A local precast concrete business will not load a spring ride trailer. They say that any trip much over 150 miles will crack the concrete products in transit.
Can you imagine what a load of TVs will look like after bouncing across the country????
