Some trailers have a torsion type suspension (no leafs) maybe thats what your looking at. If it really has no suspension I wouldnt use it.

Many of the old stock car trailers we used years ago were solid axle. They bounce all over the place when unloaded, but not too bad with weight on them. I don't think I'd want to buy one, but if that's all you got it's better than nothing.

And I'd do some research before I bought another torsion bar trailer. I have a Pace 24 and it eats tires - I was told it's the nature of the torsion bar suspension under it being harsh on tires.
