Single-Axle Trailer Hanger Kit for Double-Eye Springs - 3-1/4" Front, 1-1/4" Rear
Good kit with the necessary parts to replace leaf spring suspension. I welded the hangers rather than bolting them. The parts are not coated for the price point so you will need to paint them or they will rust immediately.

Dexter Trailer Springs Over-Under Conversion Kit
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.
One order gets you the kit for only one axle, and realized this after my order arrived for my project on a two axle trailer. Seems obvious now but that wasn’t labeled & pictures were deceiving as I saw two axle trailers advertised. Hardware all seems to be in good shape but packaging quality is poor. Before opening my package I could see into my box with loose hardware rolling around. Thankfully no nuts fell out during shipping. In the future please tape around all seams or place in more secure packaging.

Dexter Heavy-Duty Suspension Kit for Tandem-Axle Trailers - 1-3/4" Wide Double-Eye Springs
After receiving my shipment yesterday, I was concerned that parts may have been missing due to the shape of the shipping box and the lack of packing material. During the installation of the shackles, the third shackle nuts/bolts stripped out when tightened by hand. The shackle had to be cut off since the nuts could not be properly tightened. I have emailed etrailer with this issue and hopefully we can resolve the issue quickly.
I really wanted to give this kit a 5 star review, however it fell short in more than one way. The parts are very nice and heavy duty looking and went together purrty good. However, when I went to grease the shackles none took grease it just came out around the fitting, so I changed the end on my grease gun thinking it was just worn out, still same problem. I had to hold the fitting on the zirk as hard as I could and finally got them to take grease, one still hasn't taken grease and not sure what I'm going to do. I left all hardware loose to this point to make sure there was no un nessesary pressure on anything hoping it would take grease easy. It's like the heads of the zirks are a size to small. After greasing everything the best I could I tightened everything up, during this process I had 2 nuts that the threads pulled out of... Just as they got tight they started to loosen up, I was using a standard length 1\2 drive craftsman ratchet, and I'm not hulk. I ended up having a few nuts and washers that worked but still this shouldn't have happened. Makes me wonder about the rest of the metals strength. Looks heavy duty but I'm starting to wonder about longevity.

Tandem-Axle Trailer Hanger Kit for Double Eye Springs - 3-1/4" Tall Front/Center/Rear
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.

Rear Hanger with Bushing for Single Axle Trailer Suspensions with 1-3/4" Double Eye Springs
I think etrailer is Great. I think their customer service is fantastic. My wife and I were in Arkansas, 1200 miles from our home in Ft. Myers Florida. I replaced the original springs on our trailer with new heavy duty springs, but never changed the hangers or bolts. Our trailer was riding very poorly, we needed new hangers and bolts badly because we were headed on a very long 9000-mile trip with many stops all the way to the Monterey CA. etrailer found us a UPS Store along our route to send us the parts that we needed. Many thanks to etrailer for great parts and Fantastic customer service and for helping us with our most Wonderful Adventure!
Product was as advertised and work perfectly. I like your company and have purchased many items from you. The shipping was very good and arrived shortly after the purchase.

Dexter Trailer Springs Over-Under Conversion Kit
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!
