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.

Today we're going to be taking a look at a 4-leaf double-eye spring for a five thousands pound trailer axles. It's going to be made from a durable steel construction. These are designed to flex. That way it absorbs road shock and provides a smooth ride. It's also going to reduce ware and tear on your trailer, and it's going to insure a level ride on bumpy and uneven surfaces. It's designed to mount to the trailer frame with hangers or a hanger kit.
Those items are sold separately. If you're in need of something like that you can check out your options here at etrailer.com. The nylon bushings here on the eyes, pre-installed, they are included. This is going to contain a total of four leaves. It's going to have a spring capacity of 2500 pounds and it's designed for a 5000 pound trailer axle. A few measurements to go over with you real quick, the first one, we want to take a look at the spring length.
That's measuring from the center of one eye to the center of the other. If we do that for this particular leaf spring we can see that that's going to give us a measurement of twenty five and one quarter inches. The spring width edge to edge is one and three quarters of an inch and then the diameter of the eye is nine sixteenths of an inch. Please note that in order to assure proper axle alignment and suspension performance, it is recommended that your leaf springs should always be replaced in pairs. That's going to do it for today's look at the 4-leaf double-eye spring for 5000 pound trailer axles.

Double-eye leaf spring acts as part of a trailer's suspension system by providing an attachment point for a 5,000-lb axle. Spring flexes to resist shock and also ensures a smooth ride. Includes bushings with 9/16" inner diameter.The springs look good. I am in the process of installing them now. They are the correct ones and fit well. The only miss was on my part. The shackles and bolts should always be replaced at the same time and I should have ordered them with the springs. 557022
I have been buying products from etrailer since 2009. I come back because the customer service in helping me find the right part or return a part is always, year after year, excellent! I needed 6 leaf springs for my toy hauler and couldn't find a part number. I called and Sandy helped me find a great replacement spring. I needed the springs quickly so we could go on a planned trip. Ordered them Tuesday, they arrived Thursday in perfect condition. I installed them and wow, the ride height restored, the camper sits square and wheels all straight. THANK YOU Sandy and etrailer. I will keep coming back. Michael 403680
I replaced all 4 springs under my 20' trailer and what a difference. Made it like new and at a very affordable price. The tables, charts, diagrams and descriptions given with all etrailer parts makes it so much easier to figure out what is needed and the correct parts. Had the order in my hands in less than 4 days from ordering. This is the fourth, or fifth, order I've placed with Etrailer and I will continue to order from them in the future, as the need arises. The products have been quality, price is unbeatable and shipping is quick. The tech support is also outstanding. Questions answered in a timely matter with a detailed answer and part references. Great Company to deal with. Thanks, Ken 460783
Ordered another three now that I know they will work for my needs. 548997
I ordered these to replace 4400# springs on our fifth wheel that are 10 years old. I was expecting the ride height to increase but it did not. They appear to be of acceptable quality but as with most products time will tell. We haven't used them yet but are planning a long trip next month. 286904
Its been a year now. One long trip out west and no issues. No sag at all. Overall positive results with these reasonably priced springs.

The springs were installed without any problems. The wet-bolt bushings pressed into the spring eyes as they should, with no deformation such as what had been the case with the springs supplied with the OEM axle. 608798

Excellent products, very Happy. I spent a lot of time searching the internet for these products. Pricing, quality and delivery were great ! I made the right choice to order from etrailer.com 493664
Excellent price and good part. Looks to be well made and the installation went good as these were exact replacement size but heavier capacity. 493538
We are glad to hear that your new leaf springs are working out for you. Just be aware that increasing the capacity of the springs will not necessarily increase the load bearing capacity of your trailer. If your coupler, hubs, tires or the trailer frame itself has a lower weight rating, youll be limited to the capacity of the lowest rated component.
