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.
Double-eye leaf springs attach to hangers that are welded onto your trailer. One end of this spring will attach directly to the hanger with a suspension bolt. The other end will attach to shackle straps that are suspended from a hanger. These straps allow the spring to move and pivot so that it can better compensate for uneven pavement. If you have a tandem- or triple-axle trailer, the shackle straps will be attached to the equalizer that connects multiple springs.
To mount this spring, you will need hangers, shackle straps, and suspension bolts. If you are simply replacing a spring, you may still have hangers welded onto your trailer. You should, however, replace your shackle straps because they are usually the first component to wear out. You may choose to replace old suspension bolts as well. It is 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.

I pull a toy-hauler 5th wheel trailer between Alaska and the lower 48 through Canada twice a year. Much of the road is rough and caused me to break a leaf spring every trip. Since installing a shock absorber system and upgrading from 5-leaf to 6-leaf springs, I have so far eliminated suspension damages on the route.
Jayco, the manufacturer of our 4 year old RV, grossly undersized the axle leaf springs when it was built. The GVWR rating tag on the RV said it was good for 9750# but Jayco only put springs rated for a total of 8000#. Consequently the springs failed after 4 years and less than 5000 miles use. (See picture of old/new springs). I upsized the new springs to a total of 12000# and once again the RV sits as high, maybe 1/2 inch higher than when it was new. Etrailer.com site was easy and helpful to use. The springs and u-bolts arrived in just a few days and were well packaged. Thanks to etrailer we are safely on the road again.
I had rusted old bolts and leaf springs, these were great replacements. No issues look great work well and fast shipping. added 3 inches of lift upgrading the springs.
Brandy was super helpful. My package came in two days! I didn’t realize Etrailer was a one stop shop. Will definitely be buying from you guys again, thanks!
EXCELLENT QUALITY AND FIT - I JUST HAULED MY 25 FT CRUISERS-(FIRST TIME AFTER INSTALLATION OF NEW LEAF SPRINGS ) THEY HELD THE WEIGHT VERY WELL !!!!
First off I was in need of parts ASAP so I searched the web and found this site, that being said I made a purchase of greasable bolts, spring plates and new upgraded springs, 3 days later I received all Of my parts and installed without any problems. The new springs gave my trailer a much needed lift of about 4-5 inches and improved the ride by 100%. All in all this was a great experience and very good products. I will continue to purchase from them and highly recommend them to everyone who has a trailer!
I had great costumer service. When one of the springs I ordered was lost, Noah stepped up and expedited a replacement. Very professional all the way.
I had these springs on order for almost 7 months from another vendor with no delivery date in sight. So i searched and found them on etrailer website for less money and they were in stock and delivered to me within a weeks time. Awesome pricing and service. Will definitely order from them again.
It went together fine, lifted the trailer bed a good 5-6 inches off the tires and looks strong; time will tell. First picture is BEFORE, 2nd pic is AFTER
Never had any problem with parts I’ve purchased from Etrailer.
Huge improvement. No need to hesitate. If you’re looking at this option just buy it. Lowest cost solution out there for the level of improvement it provides. For this install I should have bought the HD shackle kit with wet bolts, I just bought shackles and hardware from the local dealer.
Lifted trailer back to like new height. The springs were twice as thick as the factory springs. I didn’t buy my dump trailer to look at. It gets used almost every day! Thanks for great prices and fast shipping.
Installed easily with no additional parts needed. Travelled 1250 miles with no problems. Handled the load well.
Brett - 11/03/2020E trailer is the best. Always fast shipping even on free ship items. The springs worked great and the customer service was even better.
This order was shipped out within 6 hours of my placing the order over the phone. Now that is great service! The 6-leaf spring was an exact replacement for the ones on my 40 foot Big Horn 5th Wheel, except they are better made and seem stronger. I am definitely satisfied with the quality of material I am getting from etrailer.com.

Great product for a great price! Fast s hipping
Great product and customer service
We are so pleased with our interaction with etrailer. We were dry camping in the desert and had no good access to the website. Lori got us the right parts we needed and even gave me her direct line number in case we needed it The only bad thing was one of the boxes was damaged and some of the nuts we needed were missing but we were able to use the old ones. We had to replace leaf springs. This is not etrailer's fault though. We would use them again in a second. Very friendly and helpful. Thanks for getting us back on the road.
I purchased a tractor, and it came with a home made equipment trailer with two 7,000 lb axles. It is an incredibly strong trailer, but they used light weight single leaf springs! Not safe! Since I didn’t want to cut and re-weld the hangers, these springs worked perfect with the dimensions I have. They give me a capacity 2,000 lbs under the axle rating (12K vs 14K). I also ordered u-bolts, return springs, adjusters, etc. All parts shipped quick, came on time, and were packaged well. I’ve ordered from etrailer before, and I’ll order from them again!
Hoping to remedy the problem I was having with low ground clearance on my 2007 Cyclone Toy Hauler, I decided that a spring change was in order. It has 5200 Lb. axles, and came with springs containing 4 leaves, which had gone a little flat over the years. After comparing information on all of the springs available from etrailer, which was very easy due to their accurate specifications and photographs, I found a set of 6000 Lb. springs (6 leaf) that would fit, and give me a little more height. (This has NO effect on increasing load limit, as the axle is still limiting. etrailer also carries the direct replacement 4 leaf springs it came with.) The springs, along with the also ordered hardware, came in just a few days, and the products were exactly what I had ordered and of high quality. I would definitely recommend and order from etrailer again! Easy!
I recently placed an order for new trailer springs and some brake parts. Daniellee made sure I had ALL the correct pieces put the new springs on. The box was damaged somewhere along the way in shipping and someone tried in vain to patch it up with tape. There was probaby a whole roll of packing tape on the end. Needless to say some parts fell out and were lost. I called them up immeditially and explained the issue. Bridget responded and had the missing parts in the mail the very next morning. AWESOME company and AWESOME customer service. Will continue to do business with them for any of my trailer needs.
Just received the springs so they are not yet installed. I will show photos of the entire new assembly including springs, shackles, and shocks.
