2008 Jayco Jayflight 32BHDS Leaf Spring Replacement
Published 06/12/2020 >
Question:
Thank you for your reply. I in a bit of a time crunch so I was looking for bolt-on replacement parts only. We leave for a two week trip in just 4 weeks. So I have decided to go with the triangular OE style equalizer that is 6.06” x 4” (which matches what is on the unit now) and just install new springs and a wet-bolt kit. So as far as the springs I am not sure what I need. The axles are rated at 5200lbs each and the gross GWRV of the travel trailer is 9,670 lbs. So maybe 2500 lbs. springs?

I can see what the best possible cushioned equalizer would be for your trailer but I don't have a way to look up what you have or see how far off the # K71-564-00 would be from it working. What dimensions do you have?As far as the leaf spring is concerned 25-1/4 inch would be the better option. What capacity are you looking for.
