Replacement Leaf Springs and Bushings for Tandem Axle Trailer
Published 12/12/2024
Question:
I am looking for Double Leaf Springs and Bushings for my tandem wheel trailer. Leaf Springs are 2 wide, 26 center to center, 5 leafs = 1-1/4 thick plus 5 deflection = 6-1/4 total. Axle is 3 round in middle but is flared down to 2-1/2 by the U-bolts 1/2 thick. I would need 4 each. Current Nylon Bushings are 2 pieces 1-1/4 OD plus a shoulder on the ends. They fit over 2-1/4 long steel sleeves 5/8 ID 9/16 bolts used. I would need a total of 12 setsprs for the leaf springs and shackles. Let me know if you have these parts or who else may have them. I can be reached via e-mail if you have further questions. Thanks, Mark

Hi Mark; are you saying these are double eye leaf springs? All double eye are 1-3/4" wide so I would double check that measurement. I will also need to know the axle capacity to see if we have leaf springs that match. The bushings sound like the Rubber Bushing with Steel Sleeve # DX77XR. These have a 5/8" ID, 1-3/8" OD, and are 2-3/16" long which seems to be right in line with your measurements. If you're looking for 2-1/2" U-bolts that isn't something we carry. We only have 2-3/8" for your typical 3,500 lb axle or 3" for your standard 5,200-7,000 lb axles.
