Video Transcript for etrailer Trailer Suspension - Leaf Spring Suspension - 28-5 Review

Today we're going to be taking a look at the front, center, or rear hanger for double eye springs. This hanger can be used as a front hanger on single axle applications and it can be used as a front, center, or rear hanger on tandem or triple axle applications. It's designed to fit 1 3/4 inch wide double eye springs with 9/16 inch diameter eyes. It will work with a 9/16 inch diameter bolt. Your hardware is sold separately. The units made from a sturdy steel construction that measures around 3/16 of an inch thick. It is a weld on application so it would get welded directly to the trailer frame. The holes on the top are not for a bolt on installation.

These holes are for if the installer would like to use button welds instead of or in addition to welding around the hanger. The height measurement for a hanger is taken from the center of the mount hole to the top of the hanger so for this particular unit it's going to give us a height measurement of 3 1/4 inches. The overall length of the unit edge to edge going this direction we're looking at a measurement of 3 inches. The overall height, that's going to give us a height of around 3 13/16 of an inch. When it comes to the width, measuring the external width first, that's going to measure about 2 3/8, internal width is going to measure about 1 7/8 - 1 15/16 of an inch. Then all the holes on the unit are going to have a diameter of 9/16 of an inch. That's going to do it for today's look at the front, center, or rear hanger for double eye springs..

by:

These hangers are great for the center. They provide just enough clearance for your equalizer. Because of the length and being that I am a welder I added a support inside the hanger to keep them rigid!



by:

Megan was very helpful with helping get this order together and communicating with parts being shipped from other locations. Thank you so very much Megan!!!!



by:

great product and your staff was very knowledgeable and helpful I have told many friends about it and I will use your company again when needed



by:

Really like dealing with e-trailer, but am rather disappointed with the Hangers I ordered. They were smashed so hard in the die press during manufacture, that I am concerned about stress cracks. I attached 2 pics, and you can see the steel was slammed so much that it literally pinched it over a sixteenth of an inch at the base of the ears. Sad thing is, I don't have alot of time, and am forced to use them. I hope they don't break. The hangers I got in a previous kit seemed fine. I wonder why these should be different.



by:

GOOD AND TO SPEC



by:

Just what I ordered and got here fast



by:

Fantastic product. Just wish your shipping was faster



by:

Product was high quality, arrived quickly and worked well!



by:

Etrailer is always wonderful to deal with. From full suspension kits to simple hangers, i always get more than i expect.



by:

This bracket is better than the original factory one!



by:

I rebuilt the under carriage of my older trailer and purchased parts from etrailer. I replaced single leaf spring with their 5 leaf springs and used their heavy duty suspension kit and heavy duty hangers. Everything works great and would recommend etrailer parts to anyone. Great prices and great and friendly service.

Still satisfied with the products I bought through etrailer! Works great!



by:

Service from E trailer is outstanding. Everyone does there utmost to insure that you are more than satisfied with the product and service.
Having said that, I need to be honest about the hangers I received. I have purchased these same hangers 3 times and in each case the holes for the 9/16" bolts were drilled off of perpendicular as they should be. It is not enough to create a problem but it is clearly not the way the holes should be drilled.



by:

I have never used these to comment. I carry them in case of a catastrophic failure, to have on hand to do a road repair.



by:

E-Trailer always has what I need good products good service fast shipping at reasonable prices!!



by:

I purchased the parts I needed to repair the suspension on an old Lil-Rider trailer. Knowing else had anything close to what I needed. The parts came quickly and we're exactly as advertised.



by:

The spring hangers I ordered are a fine product. I was planning to use some existing rectangle tube to make my own, but what with time constraints, I decided to order these from etrailer. I am glad I did. I couldn't have made them any nicer, I would have only burned time trying. I could have made them as good, yes. I have the tools to do so. But I could not have made them as nice as these in a short period of time. Great purchase, and it allowed me to work on other aspects of the trailer while these shipped. Shipping was quick too, all around a great deal.



by:

Easy to install and and the trailer I rebuilt is awesome now.

The unit is still going strong!



by:

I have built several trailers in the past and I am currently building a tilt bed car trailer. I have made several purchases from etrailer.com They are great people to deal with and all of the products that I have purchased have met or exceeded my expectations. The spring hangers are well formed with no distortion and true to specifications. Highly recommend etrailer.com



by:

Delivery was as promised and all parts were there. Great service. Raised 5th wheel 4 3/4 inches so it would be level when hooked up to 2016 Ram 2500.



by:

As usual, etrailer does the job and faaast shipping!!!
I will use these spring brackets to move my trailer axles forward and reduce tongue weight.



by:

Great service, fantastic shipping and delivery. All pieces of the suspension repair of my tandem trailer fit perfectly! I have another trailer to repair and I will be ordering my parts from etrailer.



by:

I ordered two trailer leaf hangers and a 10,000 trailer jack. The price was as cheap as I could find anywhere and super fast shipping! Thanks
Will be a return buyer.



by:

Simple and cheap. Easy to weld. Why four stars was that the holes from one side to other didn’t line up exactly which caused problems for my installation.



by:

Not good, one of the springs in my order was the wrong type. Customer service has a 20 + minute hold, also not good.



by:

Thank you for the quick customer servic e.

  • Can a Trailer with Axles Over Leaf Springs Be Lifted
    If your axles are already above the leaf springs the only way to increase the height of the trailer is to install taller hangers. You should note that this route isn't going to give you a dramatic lift. The biggest issue your setup has is the tall rims and tires on your trailer. Normally trucks with lifts or large wheels can't tow fifth wheel trailers easily. If you are within a couple inches of being able to tow your trailer level without overhang/bed rail interference you could go...

  • How to Lift Rear of Trailer for Allowing Trailer to Sit Level
    You can do this by moving the axles from being above the leaf springs to below the leaf springs. The diameter of your trailer axle will determine the size of the parts that you will need to order. If your axle is 3 inches diameter, the Dexter Trailer Springs Over-Under Conversion Kit, # K71-385-00, would be a great choice and if your axle is 2-3/8 inch diameter you could use the Over-Under Kit, # K71-384-00. These kits can be installed without welding but the manufacturer strongly recommends...

  • How Do You Measure The Height Of An Equalizer?
    The height of your equalizer is measured from the center of the horizontal mounting holes, to the center of the upper mounting hole as shown as the 2" measurement in the included diagram of the # TREQ104. If you can send me this measurement, and if you are wanting a standard or cushioned equalizer I would be happy to recommend the correct replacement for you. I included a video of the # TREQ104 for you to take a look at.

  • How To Find Correct Replacement Leaf Spring Hanger for Grand Design Trailer
    In order to replace a leaf spring hanger you'll need to measure the existing to ensure you get the correct type and height. The Front/Center/Rear Hanger for Double-Eye Springs part # 28-5 for example is for double eye springs and measures 3-1/4" tall (from top of hanger to center of bolt hole). I have attached our full list of options below if this does not match what you need.

  • Suspension Setup Recommendation for a Camper Trailer that Will be Taken Offroad
    Leaf springs aren't any more designed for off-road use than slipper springs. What I would recommend is a Timbren axle-less system as they offer the best ground clearance since they do not have an axle that runs across the trailer. I attached a page that has all of the Timbren systems we offer for you to check out. You will want to pick out the system with enough capacity for the weight of your trailer and the same bolt pattern as your trailer wheels. For even more ground clearance some...

  • How To Fix Tires Hitting Fenders After Installing New Dexter E-Z Flex Equalizers
    To get your Dexter E-Z Flex Equalizer lower so the tires on your 2-17 Nitro Z19 boat trailer are not hitting the fenders I recommend having taller center hangers installed. Base on the pictures you provided it looks like your current hangers are pretty short. You will want to measure from the frame to the center of the hole in the hanger, and then use one of the options mentioned below as a replacement to get the clearance back. The available options are the 3-1/4" tall # 28-5, 3-5/8"...

  • How Can I Get More Ground Clearance if my Axles are Already Converted Under the Springs
    From that point the only option you will have to raise your camper would be to add longer spring hangers. Depending on your setup you can get a couple of inches out of these. Measure yours from the frame to the bolt hole and get longer ones like the Front/Center/Rear Hanger for Double-Eye Springs part # 28-5 that is 3-1/4" tall. The Tandem-Axle Trailer Hanger Kit for Double-Eye Springs Kit part # APT4 is also a great way to achieve this and refresh all of the other suspension components.

  • Can Trailer be Raised by Installing Longer Hangers
    Replacing your trailer's hangers with longer ones will raise it. Using # 28-5, which are 3-1/4 inch hangers, will likely give you the clearance you're looking for. Another option is an over-under kit. This moves the leaf springs over the axle lifting the trailer. It's often referred to as "flipping the axle' although this isn't the acutal process since trailer axles are bowed and cannot be install upside down. We carry two over-under kits depending on your axle size, part # K71-385-00...

  • Lifting My 5th Wheel With Axles Under Leaf Springs
    You will not be able to use a lift kit since your axles are already under the springs. Your only option is to go with taller hangers. You will have to measure the height of your existing hangers and use the weblink I will be including below to find the size hangers you need. When you are measuring the height of your suspension hangers, such as product # 28-5, please remember that distance is from the top of the hanger to the center of bolt hole. I have also included a product description link.

    Finding replacement hangers for your 2018 Grand Design Reflection 303RLS will require measuring your existing hangers. We have no way of looking them up and although Grand Design does a great job listing parts, they don't list the hangers. We know that the width of your hanger is 1-3/4" since that is the standard for double-eye leaf springs. What you need to find is the height, which is the distance from center of bolt hole to top of hanger. This is listed as B in the diagram below. For...

  • Hanger Spacing for Tandem Trailer with 25-1/4 inch Leaf Springs and 7-3/4 inch Equalizers
    For a tandem axle trailer using 25-1/4-inch double-eye springs like # e57SR and a 7-3/4-inch equalizer like # TREQE1 the hanger spacing should be approximately 29-1/2-inches. This is a starting point and you may need to adjust this dimension slightly.

  • Replacement Hangers, Equalizer, U-Bolts, Springs For a 2015 Keystone Carbon 327 5TH Wheel Toy Hauler
    Thank you the pictures are a great help.

These straps are much thicker than the thin straps you got from the factory so they will not elongate like your current straps which now measure 1/8" longer.

  • Can a Trailer Suspension Hanger Be Drilled Out so that a Larger Bolt Could Be Used

  • Axle Hanger Spacing Using Dexter 33" Triple Suspension Kit With 24-7/8" Leaf Springs
    You will want to space the 2 center Hangers # 28-5 31-3/4" on center and then the 2 outer hangers 28-1/4" from the center of the center hangers. This is the correct spacing using the Dexter Heavy-Duty Suspension Kit for Triple-Axle Trailers # K71-360-00 and 6-Leaf Double-Eye Spring # e64SR.

  • Single Axle Trailer, Should the Hanger or Shackle Be on the Front of the Trailer Frame
    It sounds like you have a single axle trailer and are curious about whether or not to put the hanger like the part # 28-5 or a shackle in front on the trailer frame. We recommend you put the hanger in the front. The force from the bumps in the road not only pushes up on the suspension but it also pushes the axle to the rear of the trailer. Having the shackle in the rear allows that rearward shock get absorbed better as it allow for slight movement rearward.

  • Recommended Hangers and Shackles for Building Tandem 7,500 Pound Axle Trailer
    I recommend using the Dexter Heavy-Duty Suspension Kit for Tandem-Axle Trailers - 1-3/4" Wide Double Eye Springs # K71-359-00. This kit has heavy duty shackles, wet bolts, and also equalizers with built-in grease zerks. This will give you 33" axle spacing. Although there are no heavy duty hangers, I would use longer hangers for additional clearance. You can use the Front/Center/Rear Hanger for Double-Eye Springs - 3-1/4" Tall - 9/16" Bolt Hole # 28-5 in the front/rear and then the Front/Center/Rear...

  • What Happens if I Change the Size of Equalizers on 5th Wheel Camping Trailer
    When changing the size of the equalizer that is on a trailer, this will affect the size of hangers needed or the spacing of the hangers. For example, if you were to go with an equalizer that is one inch taller, you could keep the center hanger the same but would need one inch longer end hangers. If you replace your current equalizer with one that is longer, you would have two options. One would be to find shorter springs but the easier option would be to move the spring hangers further...

  • Should Shackles Always Angle Upwards And How To Correct If The Angle Is Off
    Thank you for the pictures. The shackles should always be pointing up at about a 45 degree angle towards the axle. There is not a specific angle set in stone, but they should should make a "W" shape at all times. They appear to be positioned correctly in your first picture. However in pictures 2 and 3, something is definitely off. The shackle should never hang below the equalizer like that.

  • Availability of 1-1/8 Inch Tall Rear Hanger For 1-3/4 Inch Wide Trailer Leaf Springs
    The # 93003-3X rear hanger measures just over 1-1/4 inch in height (measured from the center of the bolt hole to the top of the hanger) at 1-9/32 in height which is absolutely close enough to the 1-1/8 inch height you were looking for that the articulation of the suspension will make up for that miniscule height difference.

  • How Are Shackle Straps Supposed to Be Positioned When The Trailer Is Loaded?
    As far as repositioning the hole in your hanger, that will depend on how much longer the new leaf springs are versus the stock spring. Say for example the new springs are 1" longer than stock when measured center eye to center eye across. I would say split that distance in half. So moving the hole out 1/2" will get you to where the shackles should be at an appropriate angle. Adding a bit more arc and leaves will add to your ride height. As far as the shackle strap position, there is not...

  • Effect on Trailer Handling from Installing Axle Over-Under Flip Kit
    You ask a very good question and I am happy to respond. Axle over-under kits # K71-384-00 and # K71-385-00 will raise the height of a trailer by the sum of two dimensions: the axle diameter plus the height of the leaf spring stack. So a 3-inch axle and a 2-inch thick leaf spring stack will mean that an over-under kit will result in 5-inches of total lift for the trailer. The linked photo shows the relative positions of spring and axle after installation of a kit. Raising the height of...
