Note: To ensure proper axle alignment and suspension performance, leaf springs should always be replaced in pairs.
Leaf springs are an integral part of your trailer suspension system. The leaf springs provide the attachment points for your trailer's axle, suspending it from the frame of your trailer. Each spring flexes to absorb road shock as you travel, allowing the axle to move somewhat independently of the rest of your trailer. This helps to reduce wear and tear on the trailer and also ensures a smooth ride.
Slipper leaf springs attach to hangers that are welded onto your trailer. The eye of this spring will attach to the front hanger with a suspension bolt. The flat slipper end of the spring will slide into the rear hanger. If you have a tandem- or triple-axle trailer, the slipper end will slide into the equalizer that connects multiple springs. The shape of the slipper end of a leaf spring may vary slightly due to differences among trailer manufacturers. Because of this, it's important to check your leaf spring's slipper end before purchasing a replacement spring.
To mount this spring, you will need hangers, a suspension bolt, and possibly a spring keeper bolt, depending on the design of the rear hanger. If you are simply replacing a spring, you may still have hangers welded onto your trailer, but it would be wise to replace the bolts as they can experience wear. It is also recommended that you replace the other leaf spring in your setup at the same time. Because springs can sag and elongate as they wear, this new spring may not exactly match the old one, and the alignment of your trailer could be affected.
If you are fabricating a trailer, you will need to purchase a hanger kit for installation. To determine the type of hanger kit that you need, you must know the specific type of leaf spring that you have, as well as your axle capacity. Depending on the hanger kits used with them, springs can be configured to work for single-, tandem- or triple-axle applications. Hangers and other suspension components can also be purchased separately if there isn't a complete kit that works for your setup.

Today we're going to take a look at the 2-Leaf Slipper Spring for 1,800 pound trailer axles. Now, this is a nice strong, durable steel construction spring. It is designed to flex to absorb road shock and provide a nice smooth ride, which will help reduce wear and tear on your trailer and ensures a nice level ride on any bumpy or uneven surfaces, does mount to your trailer frame with hangers or a hanger kit. We do sell those separately on our website and lots of times we do list those on this product page as a related product. If you notice on the eye and it does include the nylon bushing in the spring eye. Few specs on this, we'll start with the spring capacity on this spring is 900 pounds. Now, when this one is matched with a spring on the other side of the axle, it'll meet the 1,800 pound axle capacity and if you notice, it is the 2 leafs.
Now, there are a couple measurements we're going to give. There's going to be the spring length and the spring length. Now, the spring length will measure from the center of eye to the very end over here. If we put a tape measure on that, you can see right at 30 inches for the spring length. Spring width, which is going to be measured edge to edge right there is going to be right at 1 3/4 inches for the spring width.
Now, the diameter on the eye itself is at 9/16 of an inch. This part number is for a quantity 1 spring. One last note I do want to mention is when go to replace your leaf springs, you want to ensure proper axle alignment and suspension performance, we do recommend to replace the leaf springs in pairs. That should do it for the review on 2-Leaf Slipper Spring for 1,800 pound trailer axles.

Slipper leaf spring acts as part of a trailer's suspension system by providing an attachment point for a 1,800-lb axle. Spring flexes to resist shock and also ensures a smooth ride. Includes bushing with 9/16" inner diameter.This is a good, light duty spring. I replaced a set that were about 30 years old and these springs were exactly the right size. While the original spring was 4 leaves, this one was only two, but much thicker steel. Over all, I think the trailer ride is better than the old spring, but I miss the nylon bushings that were used before. This spring has a steel sleeve for the shackle bolt. 92147

These leaf springs are amazing! I purchased two springs that replaced the old leaf slipper springs on a single axle toy hauler trailer. The measurement from the eye bolt to the end of the slipper spring was 29 1/4 inches. My old springs measured 32 inches because they were so worn and the 30” leaf slipper springs worked perfect! 529263

John B - 06/28/2018Needed to replace a broken spring on my ATV trailer. Ordered 2 new springs, as everyone says that you should replace both sides at the same time. Only took a little over an hour to remove both sides and put on new springs. Got to love air tools. PS do not forget to replace your U bolts as well. 380025
