The Conventional Ramp Door Spring for 8' Wide Enclosed Trailer - Dual Spring - 230-lb Capacity # 362SA8HD measures 96" wide x 4-7/8" tall x 5-3/4" deep. This spring is designed for doors that are 94-3/8" to 95-3/8" wide. If you can let me know what the width of your door is I might be able to locate something else that will work if that won't.
