Question:
How many leaves are on the 8k leafspring pack? Your site tells me there are 7. The Roadmaster site shows 7 in their picture, but they tell me its 6. What is it, 6 or 7?

Hey Mark,
I am seeing some of the same conflicting information as you so I went ahead and reached out to my contact at Roadmaster. The leaf springs in that kit, # RM-2470-2580, are now a newer upgraded 6 leaf spring. So the springs in that kit are going to be 6 leaf, leaf springs. I am getting our information updated for that product but Roadmaster confirmed a 6 leaf spring.
What kind of trailer are you wanting to do this work on?

Thanks Nick. I purchased a set of these from e-trailer in March, and mine had 6 springs but came with 1 top plate for a 3" axle, not the 3.5". I took it on a 5,500-mile road trip, and one of the leaf spring eyelets broke off. So I thought that the spring were wrong.
