Info Needed to Pick Out Leaf Spring for Single Axle Trailer
Updated 11/25/2024 | Published 11/24/2024
Question:
Have a carolina Skiff 21DLX boat on a single axle trailer. The lief spring is 3 lief 22 from eye to eye but it is resting on the frame and when a bump is gone over, you hear it hit the frame of the trailer. The lief spring is flat, and stretched max. Need help getting the correct lief spring to absorb the bumps and prevent damage to the aluminum frame. Thank you.

Hey Brian, we don't have any springs that are the ideal length based on what you listed but do you happen to know what the axle capacity is on the trailer? That would be a good place to start to come up with best option but you will most likely need to move some of the hangers.
