Keeping your axles in line is key for even tire wear and smooth tracking. This Dexter hanger set includes (2) 4-1/4" tall front hangers, (2) 3-1/2" tall center hangers, and (2) 5-1/4" tall rear hangers, giving each spring the right mount point to keep the suspension geometry correct. The matched heights maintain proper alignment so the axles move evenly and the trailer stays stable on the road.
These hangers are built to attach four 2" wide slipper springs directly to the trailer frame. They work with tandem setups rated from 3,500 lbs up to 8,000 lbs per axle, giving you a sturdy base for heavy-duty suspension performance. The hanger spacing guides—such as 28-3/4", 29-3/4", or 32-1/2" between mounts—help you place each component accurately for consistent travel and dependable handling.
Depending on axle size, the setup achieves 4-3/4", 5", or 5-1/4" of clearance between the trailer frame and axle. That precision spacing helps control ride height and keeps the springs working in their proper range. The result is predictable suspension movement that absorbs bumps without bottoming out or leaving the frame sitting too high.
Equalizers, shackle straps, bolts, and axle-mounting components are sold separately, so you can choose the exact hardware that fits your build or upgrade plan. This flexibility makes the hanger kit a solid starting point for a new suspension setup or a full refresh that restores smooth, stable towing performance.

Hi, everybody. Andy here with etrailer.com. Let's take a look at these Tandem Axle Trailer Hangers for your two inch Slipper Springs. These leaf spring mounting hangers are going to attach four two inch slipper leaf springs to your trailer frame. And they are designed for use on trailers with Tandem 3,500 pound, to 8,000 pound axles. Now on this product page, there is a table that you can use to determine the hangar location, based on the type of leaf springs.
And these hangers will achieve a four and three quarter inch, five inch, or five and a quarter inch clearance between the trailer frame and axle, depending on your axle size. So this is going to include two front hangers, two center hangers, and two rear hangers. Let me go ahead and retrieve my ruler, and just give you the measurements of these hangers. So measuring the front hangers first, we're gonna be measuring from the center of the bolt hole to the top of the hangar. So as you can see, our front hanger measures right at four and a quarter inches.
And then our center hanger, we are sitting right at three and a half inches. And then finally, our rear hangers, again from the center of the bolt hole all the way to the top. We are sitting right at five and a quarter inches tall. Now, equalizers, shackle straps, bolts, and the components that you're gonna need for mounting your axle to your springs are sold separately. That's gonna wrap up our look today.
I do hope that it was helpful for you. Again, my name is Andy. Thank you for joining me.
