You most certainly can put a stronger leaf spring on your trailer. Just keep in mind that it could very well make your trailer ride a little more rigid and won't be as smooth depending on what you upgrade to.

We do have a variety of leaf springs that I have attached for you to filter through. You will want to choose one that has the desired weight capacity and center eye measurements that match your current leaf springs.

For example, the 4-Leaf Double-Eye Spring for 3,500-lb Trailer Axles # e54SR is labeled as being 25-1/8" long. This means that from the center of the spring eye to the center of the spring eye it measures 25-1/8".
