Old springs tend to stretch out as they wear out so in your situation you would want to go with a slightly shorter spring like the 25-1/4 inch length which we have in a 4k capacity part # e57SR, 5k with part # e28SR, or 6k part # e78SR.

Definitely looks like the springs are being overloaded and need to be replaced. You can use higher rated leaf springs but, the higher you go the stiffer the ride will be. Since we know the weight class with your axles the next step would be to…

Answer 2

It's okay to replace leaf springs with ones rated for more weight and pretty common to do so but keep in mind, the higher you go the rougher the ride will be. If you have a utility trailer then I'd probably opt for the higher rated 5,000 lb…

Since you measured your springs with weight on them I am going to recommend a couple of different length springs as replacements. You will want to verify how long your springs are without weight on them before purchasing. The compression caused by…

I have linked an article below which will help you to accurately measure your leaf springs to ensure you get the correct length. With your 5th wheel trailer having a 12,000lb GVWR you will most likely have 6,000lb double eye leaf springs like #e34SR.…

I don't have a way to look up what you would need but if you measure your current springs we can help point you in the right direction. We have 6k axle springs that will work great but we don't have any 5,200 lb options. So for a 26 long…

The only real difference between your current 3-leaf springs and the 4-Leaf Double-Eye Spring for 3,500-lb Trailer Axles - 27" Long #SP-210275 will be the thickness of the leaf spring stack. This will be 3/8" thicker when compared to what…

Answer 9

Dexter 4,000 lb axle leaf springs like the part #e48SR for 26 inches long or part #e57SR for 25-1/4 inch would work great with a 3,500 lb axle. There would be no issue with 1,700 lbs of weight either.

Answer 10

As long as the weight capacity is inline with your trailer/axle rating and the measurements match your current springs, the number of leaves in a spring pack does not matter. The difference between a 3 and 4 leaf spring pack within the same weight…

Answer 11

Hey Brian, thanks for reaching out! The measurements you have are similar to the 4-Leaf Double-Eye Spring for 4,400-lb Trailer Axles #DX95CR so it sounds like your leaf springs aren't flattening out as of yet. If you drive on some pretty rough…

Answer 12

Hey Kevin thanks for your question. There is not much downside to going with the 5,000 lb springs instead of the 3,500 lb. A higher rated spring may make the ride a bit more "chunky" at times, since the spring would not flex as easily.…
