The current rubber puck is similar to a motor mount in that the puck is secured to the top and bottom plates of the wheel frame. I'm not sure a motor mount would have enough "give" to have the trailer ride a little softer.
I did notice that I could extend the wheel frame out and maybe adapt a bigger puck or even add in a motorcyle coil spring/shock setup. I also thought that I could have an adapter built that used some rubber bushings to help isolate the amount of vibrational energy transfer through the frame. I could secure the new adapter to the hitch adapter ears.
I still want to go with some sort of front bumper dampening device as I believe it should give me the most dampening effect over the rest of the other options.
