Measure from wheel center to wheel center to determine the trailer's wheelbase. The wheels should have a center caps that you can measure from center of center of. The MORryde Premium Rubber Suspension Kit for Tandem Axle Trailer # MR47ZR that you referenced is designed for 35 inch wheelbases.

Leaf spring capacity isn't easy to determine directly unless you find a part number or label on the spring pack. You can get a good idea by looking at the axle capacity which would listed on a sticker on the axle. Or you can measure the axle diameter. 3 inch diameter axles will have the capacity of the # MR47ZR that you referenced.
