Hello Ken.

For upgrading your suspension on your 2006 Eclipse Attitude 33aks I recommend starting with the MORryde Suspension Upgrade Kit for Triple Axle Trailers - 3-1/8" Long Shackle Straps # MR26ZR. There isn't a data base that I can reference because there isn't an industry standard when they are putting the 5th wheels together, with that being said you are going to want to double check the measurements on your current shackle straps that they are 3 1/8" from center hole to center hole.

Then you will want to add MORryde Shock Absorbing Suspension Equalizers for Triple Axle Trailers w/ 33" Wheelbase - 8K # MR59ZR, I am attaching an image so you can see the measurements on these equalizers so you see how they compare to the ones you currently have on there. I know if says a 33" wheel base, but when it comes to replacement parts you want to match the parts the best you can to the parts you are replacing, like I said before there is not an industry standard when it comes to the suspension parts.

For the leaf spring you are definitely going to need to measure they eye to eye measurement while the springs are unloaded, so if needed please jack the trailer up to get as much weight off of the spring so you can get a more accurate measurement. The springs do flatten out over time, so most likely your measurement will be up to an inch longer than they one that you need to order. The only leaf spring we carry in a double eye rated at 5200 is the 4-Leaf Double-Eye Spring for 5,200-lb Trailer Axles - 25-1/4" Long # DX45CR. So hopefully the measurement that you get is close 25 1/4" long. You will need to get qty: 6 if you need to replace all the leaf springs.

It is recommended that you do not reuse your U-Bolts as they stretch out over time, so you will want to also order qty: 3 of the U-Bolt Kit for Mounting 5,200-lb to 7,000-lb, Round Trailer Axles - 7-1/16" Long U-Bolts # APUBR-9.

If some of the measurements do not match up to the parts that I suggested, please let me know. I am going off of the common parts that are put on the 2006 Eclipse Attitude 33aks.
