Single Axle Hanger Spacing Recommendation for a Leaf Spring # e54SR and Hanger Kit # APS3
Products Featured in This Question
Question:
In your question/answer about spacing on a single axle you reference e54SR spring 25 1/4 inch eye to eyeinch but you state hanger spacing should be 25 3/4 inchesinch you also reference hanger kit APS3 but it states hanger distance should be 24 7/8 inches. I am confused am I simply reading this wrong?

Expert Reply:
I attached the chart you referenced and it states that when you use a # e54SR spring with a hanger kit part # APS3 the hanger distance should be 24-7/8 inches.
The length of a spring when new and not installed on a trailer will be slightly shorter than when it flattens out from the weight of the trailer. Once the weight of the trailer is on the spring it will flatten out and be the right length.
