The 3-Leaf Slipper Spring w/ Radius End for 1,500-lb Trailer Axles - 24-5/8" Long # SP-178275 may be a fit however you will need to confirm the axle capacity first. Your existing leaf springs are going to be longer due to stretching over time. This leaf spring has a 22-3/4" eye to slipper rest measurement compared to your 23" and overall length is 24-5/8" compared to your 26". If you can let me know your axle capacity, I would be happy to confirm or recommend another option if necessary.

Included is a video resource with additional information on this leaf spring.

@Clifton Sweet, what is the weight rating of your axles and the length (center eye to center eye) of your leaf springs?

@JonG I need a 241/2 give or take 3 leaf slipper spring for a 3000 lb axle. Do I need two 1500 lb. springs or two 3000 lb. springs?

@Clifton You need springs rated for a 3,000 lb axle, so the springs themselves will be rated for at least 1,500 lbs each. The closest thing we have for your situation is the 4-Leaf Slipper Spring w/ Hook End for 4,000-lb Trailer Axles - 26-5/8" Long # SP-230275. This is a little longer than what you're needing and it's slightly rated over what you need, so if you're length is 24-1/2" length then I recommend reaching out to your local trailer shop for a replacement.

You can use leaf springs that are rated higher than the axle without any issues as long as they measure the correct measurement for your trailer. For example the 6-leaf double eye spring for 7,000 lb axles part #e64SR measures 24-7/8" eye to…
