Indespension is a brand name. Not sure if it's still done this way but the way it worked a few years
back was you have a big square section mounted to the trailer, and a smaller square one to the arm
the wheel sits on. Put the smaller one inside, and put 4 rubber cyclinders in the gaps. The rubber
acts as spring and damper.
Yes, it is independent.
