Can the U-Bolt Plate # 117858 Be Used With 1-3/4 Wide Leaf Springs?  

Updated 07/08/2022 | Published 07/06/2022

Question:

Hello - etrailer only sells this U-bolt plate for a round 2.5inch axle and 9/16inch diameter bolts. However, this U-bolt is for 2inch leaf springs and my leaf springs are only 1.75. Is that going to be a problem or can I still use this? etrailer does not sell a U-bolt plate for 1.75inch wide leaf springs and 2.5inch round axles. Thanks!

Expert Reply:

Yes, you will be able to use the U-Bolt Plate # 117858 with the U-Bolt # 175668 on your 2-1/2" diameter round axle and 1-3/4" leaf springs. The 1/8" gap between the leaf springs and U-Bolt will not affect the clamping ability of the plate.
