Availability of 3,500 lb Axle Leaf Spring that is 25-1/4 inch

Updated 08/04/2024 | Published 08/01/2024

Question:

I have the same trailer and was wondering if I could use a 4 leaf spring (1750lbs) instead of the 3 leaf spring (2000lb). Figured the 1750 lb 4 leaf was a closer match to the 3 leaf 2000 lb spring?

Hey Ben, so yes you can and for that rated spring in the same length you'd want the part # DX23CR.

Why the Dexter version and not the etrailer version? They both have the same specs, and how much of a difference should i see compared to the original 1350 lb springs (one of which snapped right in two while driving on the highway). Thanks

@Ben Either the Dexter or etrailer springs would work fine. Happened to find the Dexter first but it's not any better or worse than the etrailer. These would be slightly stiffer but I would seriously doubt you'd see or feel any difference.
