How To Choose Correct Replacement Leaf Springs for a Gulf Stream Vintage Cruiser
Published 01/18/2023
Question:
We have a 2020 built in 2019 Gulf Stream Vintage Cruiser 19CSK. SIngle axle. Dry weight is 3400#. Leaf springs are starting to flatten out. Does it matter if it has the Lippert or Dexter axle when considering leaf springs? I am looking for 5 leaf ones if you have them.

In order to find the correct replacement leaf spring for a trailer you first need to start by noting the type whether that be slipper or double eye. Then, you'll need to measure their unloaded length via jacking up the trailer. If the springs are worn they will measure longer than their replacement. Lastly, you will need to note the axle capacity which is found on the tag in the center of the beam. Please note, the number of leaves does not really denote capacity as leaves have different thicknesses. The axle manufacturer does not matter either, the options we offer will work with Lippert, Dexter, and more. Once you have all this info you can choose the correct replacement from the list below. The springs should be replaced in pairs as well. The 4-Leaf Double-Eye Spring for 3,500-lb Trailer Axles part # e54SR is a pretty common replacement measuring 25-1/8".
Unfortunately, we have no way to look up leaf springs for any one particular trailer.
