While the 150-LB # 362SA8207 will work the higher weight will make the door want to raise up off the ground which can be troublesome when trying to load something and the door starts to close itself. Both these kits can be narrowed down to the 88" width you are needing. Be sure to check out our etrailer Enclosed Trailer Transition Plate # e32JR as well. If you install this it will make the...

  I do not see any reason that you will not be able to use the Conventional Ramp Door Spring for 8' Wide Enclosed Trailer # 362SA8207 on your trailer. You will have to make sure that the top door is opened before the bottom half since the angle of the cable will drag on the top of the door if it is closed.
