Leaf Spring Recommendation for Older Trailer with 30 inch Springs

Question:

Hello, Ive enjoyed the wealth of information youve posted and that leads me to my question. I have an 1972 travel trailer in need of leaf springs. Ive followed the instructions for measuring the springs and am having trouble finding a replacement. The spring measurements are: A and B are 16. C=30 1/2, D=1. The springs are a double-eye type with a width of 1 3/4.inch The trailer empty weighs approx 1500lbs dry weight. Can you help me find a suitable substitute? Thanks.

30 inch long leaf springs are longer than what we have replacements for so the only option we'd have would be for you to move your hangers and go with a properly rated leaf spring for the axle capacity.

For a similar rated leaf spring we have the part # e77SR which will work great as it is for a 2k axle and the springs are 1-3/4 inch wide like you have as well.
