• Upgrading Leaf Springs, Equalizers, and Wet Bolt Kit for 2018 Jayco 265RLS
  Hey Jeff! I can help you find the right parts to upgrade everything but you're going to need to take some measurements. For the leaf springs, you will need to get the spring eye to spring eye measurement or the flat length as outlined in the article I attached further down on this page. You don't want to go too crazy with a higher capacity or you're going to get a rough ride. 4,000 lb leaf springs like the 25-1/4" Long # e57SR or the 26" Long # e22YR would be a good choice if they match...

• 2,000 lb Rated Leaf Spring Replacement For A Dexter 072-042-00
  Hello Mark. Based on what I could find online, the Dexter 072-042-00 is a standard 1-3/4 inch wide double eye spring which is 25-1/4 inches long and rated for 1,750 lbs. To replace these, I recommend you use the 3-Leaf Double-Eye Spring # e57SR. This is a 2,000 lb rated 1-3/4" wide double eye spring that measures 25-1/4" long overall. So this will be a direct bolt-on replacement for your Dexter springs and it has the 2,000 lb rating you are looking for.

• Can 2.2K Heavier Rated Leaf Springs be Used on a 2022 Grand Design Imagine BHE Trailer
  Hey Steve, thanks for reaching out! According to my research your 2022 Grand Design Imagine BHE has a GVWR just shy of 7,000 lbs so increasing the leaf spring weight rating by 2.2K will result in a pretty noticeable stiffness and I don't recommend going that route. It's okay to have leaf springs that are rated a little higher, but 2.2K is pretty significant for this weight of trailer. If you can let me know what the length of your leaf springs are when they don't have weight on them (lift...

• Can 4k Axle Trailer Leaf Springs be Installed on 2019 Jayco Jayflight 267BHSW
  Hey James, you can go with a 4k axle leaf spring like the part # e22YR in place of what you have now while it has a slightly higher weight capacity it's not enough that it would create a harsh ride quality. This is a 26 inch long spring though so you should verify that is length you have. If you have something different let me know below.

• Replacement Leaf Springs for 2022 Sun Lite 16BH With Dexter Axle
  Hi Jason; do you know the capacity of your Dexter axle? More arch for height isn't really a thing, and I wouldn't get longer shackles since that would throw off suspension geometry and be uneven since the front hanger stays the same. It is acceptable to move to a higher capacity spring so that is the best option here. If you have a 3,500 lb axle (based on specs you probably do) the # e22YR you looked at would last longer with a capacity of 4,000 lbs. This also isn't such a large increase...

• Is There A More Robust 26" Long Leaf Spring To Use In Place Of e22YR?
  Hello again, Doug. The # e22YR spring is for a 4,000 lb axle, so technically this is already more robust than what would typically be used with your axle. If you want to bump up the capacity even farther, we do have the # e27SR spring which is 26" long and is for a 4,500 lb axle. Should be a bit more durable than what you have now, and it will fit into your suspension. Your spring breaking like that is a bit worrisome. Usually when we see this happen repeatedly it is because the springs...

• Looking For Leaf Springs For An E-Z Loader Boat Trailer
  Hello Jerry. It sounds like you are on the right track with the # e22YR double eye spring. If the old springs are measuring 26.3" when not under a load, this will be exactly the right spring. It has 3/8" thick leaves and the spring is 1-3/4" wide. As long as the 4,000 lb axle capacity (2,000 lbs per spring) is suitable for your axle.

• Looking For New Leaf Springs For 2022 Gulf Stream Vintage Cruiser 19RBS
  Hey Jeffrey, welcome back, and thanks for providing all those specs - it really helps. We do have a replacement leaf spring for you. I recommend the following: - 4-Leaf Double-Eye Spring for 4,000-lb Trailer Axles - 26" Long # e22YR You will need to replace the U-bolts since those can't be re used. For that use the CE Smith U-Bolt Kit # CE23002 (one kit per axle). The bearings don't necessarily need to be replaced unless they are worn or damaged. If I were you, I'd check each hub and...

• Can Slipper Springs be Used to Replace Double Eye Trailer Leaf Springs
  Hey Allen, good to hear from you! You can swap to the 30" Slipper Spring # e89SR, but it will require you to get a whole new hanger kit installed on your trailer which means cutting the old ones off and having new ones welded on by a professional. A much better option to beef up your suspension would be to install the 4K Double Eye Leaf Spring # e22YR because you'll continue to use the rest of your current components.

• Leaf Spring Replacement for Flat Trailer with 3.5K Axle
  Hi Rick, Thanks for your question! The "D" dimension is measured from the center of the spring eye down to the top of the leaf spring pack. It's a little difficult to tell from the photos, but it looks like yours is right around 4 inches, which is pretty typical. While the "D" dimension is worth considering, the most important factors when replacing leaf springs are matching the spring length and weight capacity. Based on the "D35" shown on your axle tag and the 2-3/8-inch axle tube...

• What Leaf Springs Do I Need For 1998 Roadrunner Trailer?
  Hello Abel, thanks for reaching out. So leaf springs can flatten out and flex up to 1" longer than the original measurement. I do not think your springs were originally 25-1/4". It is more likely they were around 26" originally. Replacing a 3-leaf spring with a 4-leaf will lift the trailer a tiny bit higher, but you are talking about only 3/8" or the thickness of one leaf. As far as recommending a spring, I will need to know the weight capacity of your axle. For example, the 4-Leaf...

  Hey Mike, to pick out the correct replacement leaf springs for your Keystone Cougar 29RKS we need to know the axle capacity of the trailer as well as the length of your current springs.

• Replacement Leaf Spring for Wells Cargo T8520T2-D
  Hey Rick, he leaf spring part # e22YR that you tried can replace all of the springs you have now without having to change anything so this would work great. As a leaf spring breaks in and eventually wears out it stretches as it gets flatter which is why a shorter new spring is what you end up needing when it's time for replacement.

• Looking For New Axles And Leaf Springs For Trailer Rebuild
  Hey John, thanks for reaching out. Yes, I can definitely help point you in the right direction. For the axle replacement, I'll need to know the hub face (HF) length and spring center (SC) length of the current axle. If the axle sticker is still in tact, it should list these measurements. Otherwise, you can measure. We'll need to make sure the new axle is a direct length match to the old axle. Also, let me know what wheel bolt pattern you are working with. For the leaf springs, I'll...

• Replacement 26" Long Leaf Spring for a Boat Trailer
  Hey Mel. How did you get the 26-1/4" measurement on your current leaf springs? If the weight of the boat and trailer was still on the suspension they're probably going to be closer to 26" long if not shorter. Leaf springs like to stretch out after years of use and the only way to get an accurate measurement is to lift one side of your trailer up or take a measurement from the center of the spring eye to the center pin on the leaf spring along the curve( measurement B in that attached image)....

• Does etrailer Carry 24" Eye to Eye Leaf Springs
  Seth, with that length there aren't going to be any options that we have unfortunately. The closest springs we carry to your 24" are all slipper springs like the 4-Leaf Slipper Spring w/ Radius End for 2,000-lb Trailer Axles # e69SR.

• Can A 25-1/4" Leaf Spring Be Replaced With A 26" Leaf Spring?
  Hello Mark, thanks for reaching out. When replacing leaf springs, it is important the new springs are identical in length to the old ones. There is a small amount of tolerance, like 1/2" or less, but any more than this can throw the suspension off center like you are describing. It sounds like the 2" springs are just too long for your trailer and will need to be replaced. I see that you ordered the # e22YR springs which are for a 4,000 lb axle. We do offer a 25-1/4" spring for a 4,000...

• Replacement Leaf Springs For A 2020 Freedom Express SE Travel Trailer
  Hey Matt, The GVWR of your trailer is 7,500lbs so it's more likely that you have 3,500lb axles. To closest option to this would be the etrailer 4-Leaf Double-Eye Spring for 4,000-lb Trailer Axles - 26" Long # e22YR. I would definitely take a look at the axle tubes to find the axle tag sticker and confirm the weight capacity before purchasing a new set of leaf springs. If the axle tags are gone or painted over then you can measure the diameter of the axle tube with a caliper # PTW80157...

• Replacement Suspension Parts for a 2025 Grand Design 2800BH
  Hey Kevin! I tried looking up the parts through Grand Design, but their website is less than helpful when it comes to finding the specs (it's great to find replacement kits though!). I know the MORryde Shock Absorbing Suspension Equalizers # MR27ZR will work because that's the only kit they had listed. The Suspension Kit # MR76ZR will work if your shackles measure 3-1/8" long from center bolt hole to center bolt hole. The 4-Leaf Double-Eye Spring for 4,000-lb Trailer Axles # e22YR is...

I do not have a way to look up your trailer to know exactly what spring you will need though. There are two big pieces of info I will need in order to recommend the correct spring. The first is the weight capacity of the axle. There should be a tag on the axle that shows the individual weight capacity. The second piece of info is the length of the current springs....

• Replacement 26 Inch Long Double Eye Leaf Spring for Travel Trailer
  The 4-Leaf Double-Eye Spring for 4,000-lb Trailer Axles # e22YR looks to be exactly what you need. This measures 26" from center eye to center eye and is 1-3/4" wide. This is rated for 2,000 lbs so when you replace both springs together they are rated for 4,000 lbs (check to make sure this is rated high enough for your axle specs). Be sure to replace the leaf spring on both sides of the same axle to ensure that you have a consistent ride quality.
