Expert Reply:
While you can upgrade to heavier leaf springs like the 4,000LB # e22YR to replace the 26" leaf springs you must understand this will not improve your ride quality for the trailer. A better option would be to install the Roadmaster Comfort Ride Leaf Spring Suspension Kit w/ Shock Absorbers # RM82MR. This will greatly improve your ride quality by reducing chucking and separating the axles so they perform more like an independent suspension rather than being linked together by an equalizer.
