Hey Chuck. How wide is your axle from hub face to hub face? What size lug pattern do you currently have?

In order to recommend the correct leaf springs I need to know how long yours are from the center to center mounting holes. I'll also need to know how many leafs yours have. It's recommend to jack one side of your trailer up to get the weight off of the suspension before you measure. The springs tend to stretch out over years of use and this is the most accurate way to get a measurement for replacements.

You can add this information and any other questions you have where it says Reply to Jerred H and I'll be happy to answer them.

Jerrod, thanks for responding. The current axles are 2 inch square drop center. The hub to hub measures 93". The hubs are 5 lug/4.5 inch. The leaf spring center to center measures 76". The leaf springs are 20 " long and there are 3 leafs. Please advise and thanks again.

@ChuckC Thanks for the information. The closest axle we have to yours is the Trailer Axle Beam with Easy Grease Spindles - 4" Drop item # e35GR. It's got a 94" hub face though and a 7,000 lbs capacity so there are no 5 lug hubs for it. To replace 20" long leaf spring we have the 4-Leaf Double-Eye Spring item # DX73CR. It's a bit longer at 20-1/2".

@JerredH, thanks for your response. Those probably won't work for me.
