When the road gets bumpy, the 4-leaf double-eye spring flexes to soak up the shock and keep things level. Each leaf works together to absorb impact from uneven surfaces, reducing bounce and keeping your trailer steady. With a spring capacity of 1,750 lbs and an axle capacity of 3,500 lbs, it’s built to maintain a smoother, more controlled ride under load.
Durability matters when you’re hauling heavy gear mile after mile. This steel spring provides the solid backbone your suspension system needs. Measuring 25-1/4" from eye to eye and 1-3/4" wide, it’s made to handle constant flex without losing shape. The 3" drop from center eye to the middle of the spring helps maintain proper suspension geometry for consistent performance.
Metal-on-metal wear can cause squeaks and looseness over time. This spring comes fitted with smooth nylon bushings that reduce friction and noise while the suspension moves. The 9/16" eye diameter with bushings (11/16" without) fits standard hardware and keeps motion quiet and controlled through every mile.
If your old springs have flattened or sagged, this direct-fit Dexter spring restores proper ride height and balance. It attaches to hangers on one end and shackle straps or an equalizer on the other, making it a straightforward swap for worn factory parts. Replacing in pairs keeps axle alignment true and ensures both sides of the trailer share the load evenly.

I am absolutely shocked to hear this on a Dexter leaf spring. What was the measurement of the one you took of?

Purchased a set of Dexter leaf springs for more money thinking they would last longer. One failed and went completely flat after 9 months. Unfortunately for me, e-trailer does not warranty the product, so I had to deal with the manufacturer for warranty replacement.

I totally get wanting to buy USA-made, but Dexter is still a reliable brand. While they are manufactured overseas, the I think you'll find the quality is still there. :)
