Upgrading Travel Trailer Leaf Springs to a Heavier Duty Option
Updated 04/27/2021 | Published 04/24/2021 >
Question:
I have a travel trailer with a 2700lb axle weight. Leaf spring measures 23inch from what I can tell. Its a single axle trailer Its a 2020 crossroads Zinger 18bh. Just looking to get the correct leaf spring for the trailer, or maybe one a step up from what was on the from the factory. Any help as to which one I need?

Expert Reply:
To upgrade you current leaf springs, you will need to up their capacity to that of a 3,500 pound axle. The 3 Leaf Double Eye Spring # e59SR is the replacement I suggest. It measures 23 1/8 inches long from eye to eye and is the closest we have to your current spring. Each spring is also rated to 1,750 pounds giving you a total capacity of 3,500 pounds per axle.
