Best 2005 GMC Sierra Trailer Leaf Spring Suspensions

Nice hardware kit, has everything you need including lock washers.

Ordered a lot of parts for a dump trailer rebuild in Sept. Didn't install some of the final parts until Christmas break. THEY SENT COARSE THREAD NUTS INSTEAD OF FINE. I ruined 2 u-bolts and need all 16 fine thread nuts. I'm outside 60 days so I was told I'm on my own. I've spent $5k+ on etrailer. I'll find some place else.......

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!!!

As advertised, about 1.5 hrs to install (single axle). great product easy to install.

Our trailer was so low...that it could not make it up a low curb and some driveways - especially when fully loaded. Went with the Dexter axle flip kit. The Dexter bracket and base plate pieces are worth the extra $20-$30 compared to other similar kits - they make fitment easier, eliminate any guesswork on placement, and decrease installation time because of it. Took 2-3 relaxed pace hours for us to do single axle install. Tools required were ratchet/wrench set (13/16 deep socket worked for us for most of the bolts), cheater bar (for working those rusty bolts off), drill, angle grinder (cutter disc for oem u-bolts and leaf spring bolts that are rusted or welded in place, stripper disc for cleaning area around new bracket for welding) welder, floor jack and jack stands. We had to remove the leaf springs, as the wheel mount brackets would not fit through the openings. Was hoping we wouldn’t have to, but it was pretty simple to do. We jacked the trailer up. Removed the wheels. Removed the axle. Cleaned the axle area where new brackets go. Set the height and placement of the new Dexter brackets. We left the OEM brackets on the axle and placed the Dexter ones in the exact same position 180 degrees on the other side. Welded them on. Reinstalled leaf springs. Reinstalled axle, reinstalled wheels. Then voila! We added 6 full inches of height. Super awesome.

great deal

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.

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!

The lift worked out perfectly,I had the place where I bought the trailer install them because I didn't have a welder to weld the saddle mounts to the axle and that's a must for a safe installation,also I had the place where I bought the trailer do it because they had the capability to align the axle perfect to the trailer after the installation. The lift added approximately 5 inches to the trailer hight so I could install the off road wheels and tires.The lift didn't affect the handling of the trailer at all.

Jaime at ETrailer was extremely helpful and got my order sent up ups ground since I was having issues using a P.O. Box. My parts arrived quickly and fit perfectly. I installed them last week and my trailer looks so much better and won’t be scraping on my driveway anymore!

Really liked the kit as soon as I opened the box. Well made,& much beefier than stock. Went together pretty easy. Probably spent the most time figuring-out where to put the jacks. My bushings were completely worn-out, so I did have a bit of an alignment issue. That was completely on me. Due yourself a favor and don't wait too long like I did. The results were very noticeable the first trip out. Took almost all of the slap out of the trailer suspension. Installed this kit on a 2003 Sierra 29f Fifth-Wheel toybox trailer. Primary useDirt Bike Mike is Off Road riding in the SoCal desert.

Customer service, response, shipping and ease of doing business are all top of class. The product is solid but kudos to the eTrailer staff for helping me out with a quality issue with one of the shackle assemblies. eTrailer has earned all my future business. It's great piece of mind to know they stand behind the products they sell.

I upgraded my leaf springs to 4000lbs springs and needed longer axle U bolts and Quinn at etrailer was helpful getting the correct bolts headed my way.

These seem to be working ok but do not appear to be designed for use with the HD upgraded Moryde greaseable shackle kit that I purchased with them . You can see in the photos that they rub and bind

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!

The wet shackle kit was purchased for a Neo enclosed snowmobile trailer that worn out shackles and bolts in the suspension. Removal of the old hardware went fine and the clean up of the springs also. The assy of the new shackles and hardware was relatively easy. Initial greasing of the new wet shackle set up was difficult but ultimately I got all zerks to take grease except one of the pins in one of the shackle plates with two pins. A couple of 300 mile trips and all took grease easily except that one pin and it still will not take grease. Its almost as if there is not a hole for the grease to travel thru.

Parts came on time. Great design to the grease fitting bolts

Just what i needed since my original equalizers were completely worn out .

Easy to install if you have jacks and stand mine was on a ranger boat trailer just towed over 700 mile and I'm Really satisfied

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.

Parts are a 5, delivery options questionable.Can't delivery 10 pounds of metal in a paper mailer. Was tore open on the bottom. I run a mailing business and I can tell you its not that much more expensive to use a box.

New bolts made replacement of springs easy

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.

These hangers are great for the center. They provide just enough clearance for your equalizer. Because of the length and being that I am a welder I added a support inside the hanger to keep them rigid!

great product and your staff was very knowledgeable and helpful I have told many friends about it and I will use your company again when needed

Worked great, paint is holding up, hardware was good quality, bolted right in…no issues, hold load at least as good as factory springs. Would recommend and buy again!!

Not only were the parts the right parts the kit had all I needed to do it right the videos made it as easy as it could be. The right parts that work and good videos on how to do it. I did call to be sure I was ordering everything I was going to need and was given great advise and was not encouraged to get things that I did not need. They are my go to team to get anything trailer done.

So far so good on my 2015 Open Range 3X427BHS! Overall, the old suspension system was just rusted and worn out and the tires were a maximum of 1" apart, which made me really nervous while pulling. It was tough to remove, but nothing a little WD-40 and some praying couldn't fix! Installation was pretty straight forward using the included directions and [online video] University. Looking forward to seeing how it rides this weekend on our next trip.

Installed a year ago, I made a drilling template to help locate the frame mounting bracket screw holes. Installed a set on (2) fivers, spent average of 2.5 hours for total installation per fiver. Helped the ride of the trailer. Would certainly recommend the shock kit.

everything fit right, free shipping and low prices made a great place to buy parts from. will be back when needing more trailer parts.

Easy installation holding up well.

The axles that I ordered last year are still working out great. But even better than the parts was the service I got from etrailer. It was so great working with a company who took the time to listen to my project and help me get the right parts I needed, especially coming right off the heels of a terrible experience dealing with bad information and wrong parts from a competitor. Even with some damages in shipping, the returns/ and replacements were no hassle, with most issues being quickly resolved and not even costing me any additional downtime. As a contractor keeping a small fleet rolling, your competency and professionalism have made me a customer for life!! You guys at etrailer will be my first stop for trailer parts.

Axles flipped, and going down the road.
