Replacement Leaf Springs For a 1961 Air Bouy T1100 Trailer
Updated 02/03/2026 | Published 06/30/2024
Question:
1961 Air Bouy T1100 trailer. The leaf springs might be original to the trailer. I want to change them out. They are 31.25inch from center to center. I am finding it difficult to find an exact replacement. It carries a small runabout that is around 700lbs. What size spring can I use for this? From the old documentation I can find, I think the trailer is rated for 1,100lbs.

While we do not have a leaf spring to match the size on your 1961 Air Bouy trailer the closest we would have is the 26" Spring # e77SR rated for a 2,000LB axle. You would have to look at creating new mounting points for this spring on your frame.
