Question:
I purchased two 3500 lbs axle from you guys a week or so ago. But I now need to replace my double eye leaf springs which are mobile home leaf springs. The dimensions of my current setup are as follows. The current leaf springs are 25.5inch in length from center of eyes. My equalizers are 9inch in overall length. The distance between center of front spring mount and center of equalizer mount is 30inch and the same the rear axle for a total of length of 60. What springs, equalizers and shackle kit to I need to go with. My other questions is the center equalizer that is currently on my trailer is 9inch long. I cant find any kits with this size.

Helpful Expert Reply:
Mobile home axles/suspension are typically designed for one time use, so picking out components to work with mobile home components can be tricky. Your best bet is to do what you did with your axles and just start over with quality stuff that you will know will work.
First let's start with a spring. For a 3,500 lb spring the part # e54SR would be a great choice. For a u-bolt kit you would want part # APUBR-1. For a tandem axle hanger kit you would want the part # APT3. For a bolt you would want the part # 166081.
