Tom, we don't have any 26 1/2" long slipper springs, unfortunately. However, since springs do lengthen over time, you're likely going to need to use a shorter spring with the etrailer Rust-Resistant 4-Leaf Slipper Spring for 4,300-lb Trailer Axles # e33SR which is 26 1/4" long and has a 4,300 lb capacity.
