Features to know about

Bring Back a Smooth, Level Ride: 5-Leaf Slipper Spring Handles 7,000-lb Axles

When old springs start to sag or flatten, the ride gets rough and uneven. This 5-Leaf Slipper Spring with hook end restores proper suspension geometry and support for a 7,000-lb axle. Each spring has a 3,500-lb capacity and flexes to absorb road shock so the trailer rides smoother, tracks true, and reduces wear on frame and cargo.

Built for Heavy Workloads: Sturdy 2" Wide Steel Construction

A solid suspension starts with strong steel. This spring is built from durable steel leaves that measure 2" wide and 3/8" thick, stacked in a 5-leaf pack designed for high-duty performance. The steel construction holds up under heavy loads and long hauls, keeping the axle secure and suspension steady mile after mile.

Easy, Reliable Mounting: Hook End and 9/16" Nylon-Bushed Eye

Installing the spring is straightforward. The front eye connects to the frame hanger with a 9/16" suspension bolt, while the hooked slipper end slides smoothly into the rear hanger or equalizer. The included nylon bushing provides a snug fit and reduces noise and friction at the connection point.

Keeps Axle Alignment Tight: 26-5/8" Unloaded Length

Proper axle spacing keeps the trailer tracking straight. With a 26-5/8" length measured from the eye center to the end of the spring, this slipper spring maintains the right geometry for dependable handling. Replace springs in pairs to keep both sides equal and ensure even suspension performance.

Absorbs Road Shock and Reduces Wear: Flexible Multi-Leaf Design

Five individual leaves work together to flex and absorb bumps and jolts from uneven roads. This controlled movement helps protect the trailer structure and cargo from excess vibration, giving a smoother towing experience and extending the life of connected components.

Received the wrong spring. It did not fit. Returning it would take too long. I was forced to find another locally and purchase a second one. Unfortunately, I did not have any more time to allow this trailer to remain idle. The spring was thrown away, and the correct spring was sourced locally for less money. The service with etrailer was great and shipping was reasonable. Unfortunately, I just received the wrong spring.

  • Slipper Spring Hanger Positioning for 7,000 lb Tandem Axle
    The spring hanger placement is going to be determined by your axle spacing. For example, if your axles are spaced 33 inches apart, as shown in the attached diagram, a 7K axle slipper spring, like # e74SR, requires a distance of 28-1/2 inches between the front and center hangers and 29-1/2 inches between the center and rear hangers, when using our Tandem-Axle Trailer Hanger Kit for 2" Slipper Springs with 12" Long Equalizers, # APT6SE. I'm not sure exactly where you measured the 26-3/4...

  • Looking For Replacement Slipper Springs For My 7k Dexter Axle
    Hey Daniel, Chances are your slipper spring has flattened out over time and is longer than it originally was. Typically an older trailer that may not have had its suspension replaced anytime recently is around an inch longer than it was originally. With that said I do have a slipper spring for a 7k axle that is 26-5/6" long, which is probably what yours were originally. I will add you should replace both springs at the same time, you always should replace a minimum of 2 on your trailer....

  • Will Dexter Tandem-Axle Trailer Hanger Kit # HAP-105-205-01 Fit Dexter 7000 Axles on Dump Trailer
    If you have 2 inch wide 7k slipper springs like the part # e74SR and your current axles are 38 inches apart on center the hanger kit part # HAP-105-205-01 that you referenced would be what you'd need.

  • Parts Needed to Convert 7k Axle Trailer with 38 inch Wheelbase to Slipper Springs
    Hey Clark, so for a tandem slipper spring hanger kit designed for 38 inch wheelbases is the part # HAP-105-205-01. Then for the slipper springs you'd need the part # e74SR and you'd be set. For a u-bolt kit that is compatible with the 2 inch wide springs that I mentioned you'd then also need the part # APUBR-8.

  • Replacement for a Dexter 072-032-00 Slipper Spring
    Hey Donald. The Dexter 072-032-00 is a 26-1/2" long slipper spring, with a hook end, 5-leafs, that works with a 7,000 lbs axle. Our closest option to replacing this spring is the 5-Leaf Slipper Spring for 7,000-lb Trailer Axles - 26-1/2" Long item # EM78UJ. This spring is sold individually and each one has a 3,500 lbs capacity. What kind of trailer do you have? You can add this information and any other questions you have where it says Reply to Jerred H and I'll be happy to answer them.

  • Replacement 7k Slipper Springs For A Roadmaster Comfort Ride Leaf Spring Suspension Kit
    Hi Kirk, Having too stiff of a spring can give you a bouncy ride, which is most likely why you're having an issue with things being tossed around inside the trailer. I don't have one of the Comfort Ride slipper springs available to confirm if all the dimensions line up with the # e74SR, but Roadmaster does have replacement springs available under part # RM75EQ that you could use to drop your system down to the appropriate capacity.

  • Replacement Leaf Spring for a 2021 Gatormade Trailer
    Hey Diego. There's no database that shows me what parts on are your 2021 Gatormade trailer so I'll need you to take a measurement for me. What you'll need to do is jack up one side of your trailer and get the weight completely off of the suspension. Then you'll measure one of your leaf springs from the center of the mounting hole to the other center of the mounting hole. Leaf springs tend to stretch out over years of use so this is the best way to get the most accurate measurement for...

  • Recommended Replacement Slipper Springs for a Trailer
    Tom, we don't have any 26 1/2" long slipper springs, unfortunately. However, since springs do lengthen over time, you're likely going to need to use a shorter spring with the etrailer Rust-Resistant 4-Leaf Slipper Spring for 4,300-lb Trailer Axles # e33SR which is 26 1/4" long and has a 4,300 lb capacity.

  • Hanger Kit and Slipper Spring Spacing for Tandem 7,000 lb Axles to Add 16 Inch Wheels
    The spacing is going to depend on the size of your tires, so let's start with that. For a 16 inch wheel/tire combo with an 8 on 6-1/2" bolt pattern the best option is a ST235/80R16 size tire with a load range of G to handle the capacity of your trailer. . A ST235/80R16 tire will measure nearly 31 inches in diameter so if your axles centers are spaced 36 inches apart you will have plenty of room. For the slipper springs you were right on with the 5-Leaf Slipper Spring w/ Hook End for 7,000-lb...

    What you have is a slipper spring setup on your 2015 Kaufman car trailer. So what you need for a triple axle hanger kit then is the part # APTT6SE which comes with everything needed. If you need new leaf springs too you'd want the 7k rated part # e74SR for each one.

  • Can I Switch From 5-Leaf Slipper Springs to 7-Leaf Springs?
    You can switch from a 5-Leaf # e74SR to a 7-Leaf # e37SR as long as you are replacing all your leaf springs. Do note the 7-leaf springs are going to be roughly 3/4" taller so you may also need taller U-Bolts like the # MR66ZR which are 7-3/4" tall.

  • Converting from Double-Eye Leaf Springs to Slipper Springs on my Triple Axle Trailer
    When looking to convert your triple axle double eye spring trailer to slipper springs, I recommend going with the 5-Leaf Slipper Spring, # e74SR, for your 7,000 LB axles. This spring has a 3,500 LB capacity, an axle capacity of 7,000 LBS, and the height of this spring is the same as your current 6-Leaf Double-Eye Spring, # e64SR. When it comes to whether there will be a change in the ride height when switching from double eye springs to the slipper springs, this is going to depend on the...

  • How to Choose Correct Axle Placement for Tandem 7K Axles with Slipper Leaf Springs
    Slipper spring setups, like parts # e74SR and # APT6SE for 7K axles, do have different hanger sizes so what you'll want to do is cut off the older hangers and do some mock-ups of your new system before installing the hangers. Start off by mocking up the center hanger setup about 2/3rds of the way back on your trailer. From there you need to measure your tongue weight and shoot for something in the range of 10 - 15% of the weight of the trailer. If you're outside of that range then you...

  • Spring Hanger Spacing Dimensions for a Tandem Axle Slipper Spring Suspension on a 14,0000 lb Trailer
    The hanger spacing for a tandem axle trailer suspension setup can be determined, but you need to take into account the axle spacing needed for the overall diameter of your wheel and tire combination and the springs you will be using. Lets say that you plan on using 4 of the 5-Leaf Slipper Springs, # e74SR, for 7,000-lb Trailer Axles, and that your wheel and tire combinations are the Karrier ST235/85R16 Wheel and Tire, # AM32764.

  • Hanger Spacing Used When Installing Triple Axle Slipper Spring Kit
    I can give you a general estimate but the only way to get it just right is to mock up all the parts to determine the proper locations prior to permanently installing everything. On a triple axle trailer with 2 inch wide slipper springs the distance from the first and second hangers would be approximately 28-1/2 inches. From the second to third hangers it would be approximately 33 inches. And from the third to fourth hangers it would be approximately 28-1/2 inches. For this set up the center...

  • Recommendation To Replace Slipper Spring And Bushings
    Yes, you will need to replace the spring with something like Item # e74SR. It is best to replace all springs at the same time so that you have even support and maintenance for the trailer. We do not carry 2 inch never fail bushings. I contacted Lippert Components who manufactures never fail bushings and they do not have a 2 inch option available at this time. It also sounds like you have a new axle. Your hubs and axle shaft/spindle should work together so long as the bearing numbers...

  • Slipper Springs vs. Double Eye Springs, Would Either Cause Severe Alignment Problems
    Both slipper springs and double eye springs will work just as well as the other as long as they are rated for the weight of the trailer. Typically slipper springs are seen more on the heavier capacity trailers. The issue you are having would not have anything to do with your leaf spring style. You either have worn out suspension components on your trailer or the axle/spindle/hub has serious problems that need to be addressed. I would recommend you either examine everything I just mentioned...

  • Slipper Leaf Springs, Equalizer and Wet Bolts for 2009 PJ Dump Trailer 7 x 14 14K
    Yes, the leaf spring part # e74SR would work great on a tandem axle 14k trailer like your PJ dump trailer. The equalizer part # TREQ4541 is the correct one to use as well with this spring and trailer. For wet bolts you'd need the part # TRFA71063 for a 7/8 inch center bolt and then part # 126B2 for the 9/16 inch bolts and you'd be set.

    With the 26-5/8 inch long leaf spring part # e74SR you referenced and the hanger kit part # APT6SE you also mentioned the dimensions in the chart you referenced would be correct to use. The distance between the front and center hanger should be 28-1/2 inches, distance between center and rear hanger 29-1/2 inches, and the distance between axle centers 33 inches. This will then put the distance from the trailer frame to the axle center right at 4-1/2 inches.

    The 5-Leaf Slipper Spring w/ Hook End for 7,000-lb Trailer Axles # e74SR does appear to be the most likely to fit your suspension system. It is common for old springs to become wore out and sag. When they do this the overall length that you are measuring will become a little longer. As we know the length from center of eyelet to center of axle pin is 12" following the curve of the spring and that the center of the axle pin to the end of the spring is 16-1/16" following the curve.
