I am installing triple axle slipper springs on my trailer and need to know,the proper spacing for 26 5/8inch long springs.

Expert Reply:
I can give you a general estimate but the only way to get it just right is to mock up all the parts to determine the proper locations prior to permanently installing everything.
On a triple axle trailer with 2 inch wide slipper springs the distance from the first and second hangers would be approximately 29-1/2 inches. From the second to third hangers it would be approximately 34 inches. And from the third to fourth hangers it would be approximately 29-1/2 inches. For this set up the center to center distance from axle to axle would be approximately 34 inches. This is also assuming the use of 12 inch equalizers.
If you need a complete kit then I recommend # APTT6SE.
