Question:
I have a 2001 Load Rite boat trailer and need to replace the springs. They are 1 3/4 wide, 26 1/2 center of bolts. Spring is open eye type. Axle is 2 square. Currently they are 3 leaf. would like to beef up a bit if possible. Need everything to instale. U-nolts, plates, eye bolts, etc.

Expert Reply:
The only open eye 1-3/4" wide leaf springs we currently carry is the etrailer # e24SR & # e33SR. I have no way to verify the weight capacity for your current springs but as it is only a 2" square axle this spring is likely much heavier than you will need. We do have the U-Bolt Kit # CE23103 for your axle which includes 4 u-bolts, 2 plates and 8 washers and nuts. Then you will need 2 of the Hanger Bolts # TRFA73Z916DLNZ for the leaf springs.

Hey, how did the new 4-leaf slipper springs and U-bolt kit work out on your Load Rite trailer? Were you able to get the beefed-up setup you wanted? Your update could make it easier for others looking to upgrade their trailer suspension.
