Published 06/14/2016

Question:

I have a 195 bayliner. Factory trailer. Has reverse c springs. Back of them ride in frame. Its very loud. And factory says its fine. Is their a way to fix this? Or can I convert to a double eye system?

Sounds like your trailer has slipper springs and you are wanting to convert it to a double-eye system. This is definitely possible. It would be just a matter of changing springs and hangers.

You would need to go with a leaf spring that is rated for the weight of your trailer when it is loaded an ready to go. I attached a page that has all of the double eye springs we offer. At the top is a chart that has all of the springs and their capacities. Select the capacity you need and then on the product page the correct hanger kit will be listed as a related product.
