• Replacement Leaf Springs For An Ice Shanty Trailer
  Hey Adam, 24-5/8" is a standard sizing for 2,000lb leaf springs so the 4-Leaf Slipper Spring w/ Radius End for 2,000-lb Trailer Axles - 24-5/8" Long # e69SR is what you need. It unfortunately doesn't look like we offer a slipper spring in a higher capacity in a close enough length. You could weld on new hangers # APS4 to switch to double-eye leaf springs like the 3-Leaf Double-Eye Spring for 2,500-lb Trailer Axles - 25-1/8" Long # e66SR for a bit more capacity to prevent the tires from...

• Can a 4-Leaf Trailer Leaf Spring be Used in Place of a 3-Leaf Spring
  Yes, you can use 4-leaf springs in place of 3 leaf springs. The extra height of an additional leaf is minimal and won't really affect anything on the trailer. Provided that the springs used are replaced in pairs and not just one side of the trailer and they are the right length and capacity for the trailer you will be good to go.

• Replacement Parts for 1987 Trailer
  Hi Tim; I can get you everything aside from the hangers. All of our standard hangers are designed to weld on but you may be able to find that bolt-on style elsewhere online or at a local shop. Hangers like those do still exist although I'm not sure how easy they are to find. We don't have complete kits but I can piece it together for you. For the rest of your setup we have the following: -Dexter Trailer Idler Axle Beam with EZ-Lube Spindles - 72" Long - 2,200 lbs # T20BTR-EZ-7258 -Spring...

• Replacement Leaf Spring for 7k Rated Trailer Axle that is 25-1/4 inch Long
  Hey Michael, the leaf spring part # e66SR that you referenced would not work for you as it was designed for a much lighter 2,500 lb axle. So instead you'd want a leaf spring that was designed for 7k axles like the part # TRU52FR which is similar in length at 25-1/4 inches. How long is your current spring?

  Based on the measurements of your current leaf springs and the weight of the trailer the 3-Leaf Double-Eye Spring for 2,500-lb Trailer Axles # e66SR is going to be the best option we have.

This leaf spring has a eye to eye center length of 25-1/8". Your spring is likely sagging a bit to give you the 25-5/8" measurement. Be sure to check the information sticker on the front of your trailer to verify this spring is the correct weight capacity as well.

• How Close to Trailer Weight Should Capacity of Trailer Leaf Spring Be
  Our trailer leaf springs are rated for dynamic axle load. Which means the capacity listed but in use on the highway under normal circumstances. Since your trailer is 2,200 lbs loaded you want to go for a spring capacity 2,200 lbs or slightly higher. For you second question it sounds like your springs are worn out. You do want to have 4-1/2 inches of fender clearance between the fender and your tire when the trailer is unloaded. Ideally you are within a couple hundred lbs of the total...

• Recommended Suspension Kit and Leaf Springs With 34 Inches Between U-Bolts
  Based on the measurements you have given, the correct kit would be the # K71-657-00 Dexter E-Z Flex Suspension Kit - Double-Eye Springs - Triple Axle - 8,000 lbs. You want to use the short equalizers. The hangers you have are designed for the 7-3/4" short version. It is critical because if you use the wrong size equalizer the springs will not compress and operate correctly. It would move the shackles into a horizontal position which would not allow the suspension to cycle. It should look...

  The spring hanger mounting dimensions for the Triple-Axle Trailer Hanger Kit, item # APTT3, are as follows. From the center of the hole in the front hanger, to the center of the hole in the center front hanger, the distance should be 29-1/2 inches.

• Recommended Trailer Axle for 6 Foot Wide Trailer
  For a 6 foot wide trailer I recommend the Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension System with Hubs - 5 on 4-1/2 - Regular Tires - 2,000 lbs # A20RS545. This system will allow you to simply attach the assembly to the frame and then use a 2 inch square bar between the assemblies in the integrated holes. If you have a cross brace at the axle location, this bar (not included) is not needed. This will give you the perfect fit on your frame and will extend the wheels to the outside of the frame....

• Leaf Spring Recommendation for Calkins Single Axle Boat Trailer
  Trailer leaf springs to flatten out over time so you ideally go with replacements that are a little bit shorter. Since you said yours are pretty much flat you might need even shorter than usual. The size most likely ideal for you would be 25-1/8 inch like the # e54SR for a 3,500 lb axle. For a lower capacity we have the part # e66SR which is for a 2,500 lb axle.

• Trailer Leaf Spring Recommendations for a Boat Trailer with 1,900 Pound Boat
  The leaf springs should be rated to match the axle on the trailer. Spring # e27SR is rated for 2,250 pounds per spring so it fits 4,500 pound axles. These springs would be overkill for a boat weighing up to 1,900 pounds and it would be a very stiff and jarring ride for your boat. Your trailer axle may have a capacity listed on it somewhere and if not then there should be some capacity information on a placard or sticker near the front of the trailer somewhere. Whatever the gross capacity...

• Replacement Leaf Springs for 2015 Yetti 6x16 Fish House
  Based on measurements alone the etrailer Rust-Resistant 4-Leaf Double Eye Spring # e68SR would work as a replacement. However, the one thing you will need to find is the axle capacity on your trailer. Try checking for an axle tag to see if it is listed or if it has a serial number on it. You could also try contacting Yetti with your VIN to have them identify it. Yetti doesn't list anything about axle capacity or even GVWR for these trailers for me to take a guess. If you have a 3,500...

• Replacement Leaf Spring Recommendation for Trailer with 25-1/8 inch Springs and 2k Capacity
  Most likely the measurement is 25-1/8 inch as that is a common size. But in most cases we recommend measuring the spring with it off the trailer and typically there is a bit of stretch to old springs by around 1/2 inch or so. The spring you would want is the part # e66SR as it matches the capacity needed closely and it has a length of 25-1/8 inches like you have. When picking out leaf springs priority one is picking out the correct capacity and then finding a spring that is close to it...

• Leaf Spring, Hangers, U-Bolt Kit for 2000 Dri Doc Bass Boat Trailer
  For a leaf spring the etrailer spring part # e66SR would work great. This is a 2,500 lb axle leaf spring. Then for a hanger kit the # APS2 would be what you would want. It comes with hangers, shackles, bolts, etc. I don't know what axle diameter you have though so picking out a u-bolt kit would be a little more challenging. Most likely it is a 1-3/4 inch diameter axle though and would require the kit part # CE23000.

• Replacement Double Eye Leaf Spring That Measures Out To be 24 Inches Eye To Eye
  Over time leaf springs flatten out after a constant use. With your spring measuring out to be 24 inches eye to eye The 3-Leaf Double-Eye Spring # e66SR will not work for you. You would need The 3-Leaf Double-Eye Spring # SP-113275. This spring has a sturdy steel construction that has the nylon bushings included. It has a spring capacity of 1,000 pounds and has an axle capacity up to 2,000 pounds. From eye to eye on the spring is 23-1/2 inches, and has a spring width of 1-3/4 inches. You...

• Can Unique Leaf Springs be Replaced on a Very Old Trailer
  I believe the hubs are for 2,000 or 2,200 pound agricultural axles which is why the springs look so different. These hubs are designed for very low speed applications (5 to 10 miles per hour according to HADCO) so if you plan on going faster than that you will need to look at replacing the axle and hubs. You could use 2 of spring # e66SR. Each spring has a capacity of 1,250 pounds. If a new hanger kit is needed you can use # APS1. When used with spring e66SR the center to center distance...

• Can 2,000 lb Trailer Leaf Springs be Replaced with 2,500 lb Leaf Springs
  You certainly can go with a 2,500 lb rated axle leaf spring on a trailer that currently have 2,000 lb capacities. It would just give you a slightly stiffer suspension setup. You should note that doing this does not give you any additional weight capacity for your trailer. The weight capacity for a trailer is determined by several things like the axle capacity, brake capacity, coupler capacity etc. The part # e66SR that you referenced would be a great 2,500 lb leaf spring. It measure 25-1/8...

  The Dexter Trailer Idler Axle w/ Hubs part # 20545I-EZ-72-10 does not come with leaf springs but we do have the correct ones for you as well as the leaf spring hangers, shackle straps, u-bolts, and everything else you need to convert to a single axle.

• How Much Space Should be Between the Top of the Axles and the Bottom of a Boat Trailer
  Normally when using hanger kit # AP233-H248 with spring # e66SR the distance from the bottom of the frame to the center of the axles is going to be approximately 4-1/2 inches. Subtract half the width of the frame then to the top of the axles that would be 3-5/16 inches. Two inches might work out fine depending on how far the suspension travels but more height would likely be needed considering the heavier load. Hanger kit # APT4 would provide more height since it has taller hangers than...

• Picking Out Trailer Leaf Springs for Trailer with 30 inches between Hangers
  To pick out the correct suspension components for a trailer you want to do it by most importantly picking out the springs that closely match the capacity of the axle capacity needed. That is priority one. For example if you were using the springs part # 1020, # e66SR, # e34SR, # e28SR, or # e57SR with the hanger kit part # APT5 that comes with equalizers that are 7-3/4 inches long you would want the hanger spacing to be 29-1/2 inches which is pretty close to what you have. All of these...

• Replacing Inverted Leaf Spring Suspension on Old Utility Trailer
  The first thing you will want to do is to remove the current springs from the frame and the axle. You can still use your axle if it is in good working order, but you will also want to remove any hardware welded to the axle. To install leaf springs, you will first want a hanger kit. For your single axle trailer, I recommend Redline's Single-Axle Trailer Hanger Kit for Double-Eye Springs # APS1. This hanger kit will have a 1-1/2 inch drop for the front hanger, and a 7/8 inch drop for the...
