Best 1997 Chevrolet Blazer Trailer Leaf Spring Suspensions

This is a great kit! It included everything we needed to replace the old, worn-out brackets on our 6'x10' trailer. The directions were helpful and the brackets and hardware are nice and solid. We've had zero issues with the leaf springs (purchased on etrailer.com, also) or the brackets. Would definitely recommend!

Excellent, had everything I needed and more for my trailer. Everything fit well!

These did not fit my 3500 lb axle. It has been very difficult determining the correct size U-Bolts for my axle. It appears etrailer does not carry the size I need.

It is exactly as described. It seems solid. I also ordered the springs, and they appear to be solid as well. I look forward to continuing to do business with etrailer due to quality parts AND great customer service from the likes of Shawnee and the crew. Thank you!!!

The product themselves are quality however, the customer service and shipping is what was dissapointing. I originally ordered 4 items. I was told only one item was on backorder. Not a big deal. I checked a week later on the backorder and was told that they did not know when an item would come from the namufactuere. However, it was a different item from the first. So two items were not available and turned out to not be available. It was a lack of communication and I had to figure this out by calling after waiting a week and several misguided emails. Next was the packaging. It was all broken up and taped when I got it. Whoever packaged these items threw 4 heavy leaf springs and 2 sets of U-bolts into a box without securing them. They arrived but the two U-bolt packedges were previouly opened and sealed with masking tape and i'm missing all the nuts and lock washers from one package. The box could have come open during shipment but they were not secured inside the box at all, which led to the catstrophy inside the box. Due to all this, I will probably not order again from this site.

The bolts worked great but the base plate was not drilled out enough to be able to fit, I had to reuse the old plates which worked fine.

These are the exact bolts used by the manufacturer of my trailer. I had a spring break after 10yrs use, so am replacing the springs and all the bolts at the same time, thank you to etrailer for the springs (ordered earlier) and now the bolts/nuts, all arrived quickly and accurately, you are my first choice for all trailer parts for my 7 trailers, thank you and keep up the good work!

When I ordered my kit from etrailer to replace the double-eye leaf springs on my 1970 Shasta Trailer, I decided to save a few bucks and get the bolts at my local hardware store. Big mistake! You wouldn't think a simple 3 inch bolt would be hard to find in your local hardware store. But in fact, i checked five hardware stores and none of them had this particular bolt. What a waste of time! I should have learned my lesson by now, and just give all my parts business to etrailer.com. I have probably spent more than $1000 in the past several months refurbishing our 1970 Shasta. Totally satisfied with the selection at etrailer, and the service is second to none!

I purchased this kit for the standard 5' x 8' 2,000 lb. trailer from Lowes. I did an axle flip and added larger tires. This is the perfect kit for this trailer. It went on easy, and the bolts were slightly longer. Also the bolts in this kit were fine thread instead of course thread. Overall an improvemet over the factory hardware and I had no issues. Shipped in a timely manner and packaged well. I highly recommend this kit if you plan on flipping the axle or need a replacement.

Moved my axle below the leaf springs, works a lot better for my needs now. Paul helped me put an order together, got it shipped that day and delivered two days later. Quality parts and outstanding customer service.

Just what needed for my trailer. My old leaf springs were so rusted that I was one pot hole away from being broken down on the side of the road. These new ones are perfect.

When I asked questions about my order they answered back quickly. Everything fit like it should. Yes time will tell if the springs are good.

Excellent service and quick delivery and great price, all looks good, thanks for helping me out with these items that I can't find around my area anymore,AES

Bushings quiet the trailer for a short period of time. Bushings wear out and squeaks return quicker than I expected.

Shipped fast looks good will be putting it on my trailer this weekend.

I bought the spring kit to put on my home built trailer that I put my old heavy slide-in camper on. It more than met my expectations. There was no sway at 75mph or on the 5 mile trail back to camp.

Easy to install. Saw in one of etrailers videos that this bronze bushing should replace the nylon bushing in the leaf springs we got. The nylon ones pounded out okay and these bronze bushings were a nice, tight fit back in.

I give this average rating, because I did get what I ordered, but the nuts for the wet bolts I ordered are extra, i ordered a triple axle upgrade kit which everything was included, so the bolt with out the nuts are useless, on your end someone must think, he’s ordering only bolts maybe check with the customer to make sure they get all they need for a repair.

My old trailer had some play in the suspension and visibly worn parts so I just ordered every thing except for the axles them selves. Glad I did too. Here are some pics of the old parts and new.

High quality appears to be stronger than the original from the factory.

Worked and fit perfect. Thanks

Quick delivery and excellent customer service (with follow-up emails to ensure that everything was ok with the order). This replaced a broken bolt on a 1956 camper trailer, and it's a very close match to the original.

Just what I was looking for to add another 1 or 2 leaf spring to the springs on the truck. Great service, fast shipping. great company to do business with.

You have a great inventory of parts. I was surprised that you had what I needed.

Quality Bolt. I will use Etrailer again. I could not find these bolts locally mainly because I work six days a week and the parts suppliers in the area only work five. This made Etrailer a awesome option. Price was the same as the local suppliers and I had the parts in four days allowing me to finish my trailer without having to take time off from work to chase parts, another added savings. Thank you Etrailer.

Nice quality and length to replace on tent trailer square axle u bolt

Got the kit today. Some of the nuts were oval and would not fit on the bolt of course. Now I have to go to box store and find nuts that fit! Not very good quality control!!

This is exactly what I needed, Perfect fit, Easy installation. Old suspension worn out.

Had a leaf spring break on my off-road trailer in Mexico. Left it at a boat yard until I received the parts from trailer & returned to replace. Only took 2 hrs to replace both leafsprinhs, shackles, bolts etc. And we were back on the road.

Great Experience! When I noticed that the leaf springs on my 44 year old boat trailer had cracked I thought I would never find replacements. I fully expected to have to have something custom built. I was amazed when I found the fantastic diagrams/descriptions dimensions for replacement springs on etrailer.com The phone support person was wonderfully helpful in confirming if items were in stock and ready to ship. The replacement springs arrived on time and everything bolted up perfectly! Thanks for such a great site!

My 6' x 10' landscape trailer was a homemade by a prior owner. While it was mostly constructed very well, the spring hangers were not correct. The spacing for the springs was also wrong, and it had very little fender clearance. There was also evidence that the spring U-bolts had contacted the frame on occasion. (I do not carry loads anywhere near the 3500# axle rating.) I added an extra set of holes on the front hangers in case the ride height proved to be too much, but I like the way it sits with the stock holes. I don't think I'll be utilizing the extra holes. This kit was just the ticket to increase the suspension travel and fender clearance on my landscape trailer. Now it "sits right"!

Used this kit to get rid of the annoying slip springs on my Harbor Freight trailer. Everything fit nicely and the trailer is makes much less noise. I re-made the base-plate these weld onto with some Angle iron I picked up at Home Depot. (See enclosed pictures) All-in-all I am happy with this suspension kit and would recommend if you are doing a similar project.

Works like their supposed too. I've built several trailers and all were built with etrailer parts, good quality, good service and great prices.

The exact part I needed

Had a hard time finding the u bolts until I found etrailer.com. They had exactly what I was looking for. The quality of the u bolts, nuts and the spring plates I purchased from them was great. Much better than all the wrong sized ones that I could locate locally. I would definitely buy from them again. Their communication was good as well.

They the ONLY ones I found that had the right size(apparently, 1 3/4" square axles are not common) as well as the mounting plates at a VERY reasonable price. I needed them quickly, paid a little extra in shipping, got them this morning, and finished the tandem axle trailer rebuild in early afternoon. Noticed the mounting plates were a full 1/4' thick, much stronger than my old 3/16" plates! This is he type of company one should do business with; thank you "etrailer" and your entire staff

My manufactured trailer did not have this type with a grease fitting. They wore out the bushing in no time. I really like the design and ability to lubricate the bushing.

About a year ago, I replaced my leaf springs, dry shackles with wet shackles, upgraded the bushings to brass, and I also installed sumo springs on the trailer,the trailer is very stable on the road, neither wind or semi trucks push the trailer, not that they ever really did but these sumo Springs made it much better. All the plates and things that were loose in the trailer no longer bounce around and are found on the floor at the end of a trip.
