Hi, everybody, Andy here with etrailer.com. Let's take a real quick look together at this front hanger for your 1 3/4-inch-wide slipper spring. Now, this front hanger is going to give you an attachment point for your leaf spring. This hanger suspends your spring from the trailer frame, and this is going to fit 1 3/8-inch-wide slipper springs. It's gonna work with 9/16 of an inch diameter bolts. Of course, those items are sold separately.
This is constructed of 4 gauge thick steel Retrieving my ruler here, let's go over some measurements. So looking at the width, 2 1/4 inches. And the height, about 2 3/8 inches. And the depth, an inch and a half. That inner width, 1 7/8 inches.
I think that's gonna wrap up our real quick look today. I do hope that it was helpful for you. Again, my name is Andy. Thank you for joining me.

I used these 'front' brackets for both front and rear ends of my leaf springs, because I couldn't find a bolt-on rear bracket. I had to bend 1/4" offsets into each of my rear shackles to make the rear brackets work. I added a spacer between my shackles to keep them perpendicular. The original rear clip was 1-3/4" wide on the outside and the shackles were outside the clips. I used 3/8" bolts to attach the brackets to my 3"x1-1/2" steel tube trailer frame. The bracket mounting tabs are drilled for 7/16" bolts, and I would have preferred to use 7/16" bolts, but I couldn't find that size at my local hardware stores. I moved my axle forward to rebalance my boat trailer, because I put a smaller engine on which made tongue weight way too heavy. I went with bolt-on brackets because I could do it myself (I don't have welding equipment). Overall, I'm satsified.

Ron, The largest utility trailer we sell at this time is the Detail K2 Mighty Multi A-Frame Utility Trailer # K2MMT5X7. The bed dimensions are 88 inches long x 52 inches wide x 24 inches tall and has a 1.640 lb payload capacity. I hope this helps. I have attached a link for your reference. Thank you.

bracket worked well although it seems like the 9/16 hole is slightly larger on one side than the other making a tight fit with the bolt I purchased causing it to only go in the bracket from one side... not a problem but if you want to have both sides of the trailer with bolt and nut on same side of the bracket you might want to dry install before securing the bracket onto the frame to know which way to install the bracket

Bolt-On spring hangers can't be bought for love or money in any "Brick & Mortar" store in Atlanta. I tried. Etrailer had just the thing with the CE14016G and it's slip-spring sister the CE14017G. I appreciated the feature that I had choice of bolting through the single 1/2 in bolt hole in the center, or the smaller two on the the tabs. It sure beat looking for a welder or bumming an industrial drill press to put holes in the regular hangers. Etrailer did a timely job of shipping on time. The new springs are hung, and I'm looking forward to pulling my boat out of the water.

I rebuilt a small utility trailer. The axle was a little too far forward for me. I used these in case I didn’t like the position. I left the original hangers in place in case I wanted to change the axle back. I haven’t moved it back because the new position balances the trailer just right.
