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.

Videos are provided as a guide only. Refer to manufacturer installation instructions and specs for complete information.
Today we're going to take a look at the 2-Leaf Slipper Spring for thousand-pound trailer axles. This is a nice strong durable steel construction. It is designed to flex to absorb road shock, provide a nice smooth ride which will help produce wear and tear on your trailer and insures a nice level ride on bumpy and uneven surfaces. It is designed to mount to your trailer frame with hangers or a hanger kit which we do sell separately on our website and we do usually list them as a related product on this product page. If you noticed on the eye it does include the nylon bushing. Few specs on this. The spring capacity for this one spring is five hundred pounds.
When this is matched with another spring on the other side of the axle it'll match the axle capacity of a thousand pounds. If you notice it is two leaves. I do want to give you a few dimensions. There's a couple of dimensions that are critical when getting or ordering your springs. The spring length and the spring width.
I'll measure the length from the center of this side to the very end over here and you can see spring length is going to be right at 24 and 5/8 inches. The spring width which is going to be measured edge to edge here. Tape measure on it, you can see is 1 and 3/4 inches. The diameter of the spring eye right here is 9/16 of an inch. This part number is for quantity of one spring and just to know I do want to mention is when you do order your leaf springs you do want to make sure to ensure proper axle alignment and suspension performance. We do recommend that these springs should always be replaced in pairs.
That should do it for the review on the 2-Leaves Slipper Spring for a thousand-pound trailer axles.

Slipper leaf spring acts as part of a trailer's suspension system by providing an attachment point for a 1,000-lb axle. Spring flexes to resist shock and also ensures a smooth ride. Includes bushing with 9/16" inner diameter.The Slipper spring on a Calkins Trailer (23 yrs old) disintegrated and It took a while to find the replacement because Calkins in now defunct. The E trailer parts arrived in a few days . Everything went well except that the U bolt treads were too short so I had to jury-rig the second plate underneath so that the clamps tightened round the Axle and it is working fine. The first photos show Pre and Post the third photo shows that the axle itself is also corroded and though still strong, I reinforced it with Carbon fiber. 230237
