2012 Prime Time Tracer 2800RLD Leaf Spring Replacement Recommendation
Updated 08/07/2025 | Published 07/12/2025
Question:
I have a 2012 Prime Time Tracer 2800RLD and all four leaf springs are flat. From eye center to eye center measures 27 1 3/4 wide, 4 leafs. I would like to know what the correct length of leaf spring would be. Can you help with this? Thanks, Jim

Hey Jim, if you jack the frame of the trailer up off the ground so that there's no weight on the suspension will the spring stop being flat so you can get a more accurate length dimension? If I can get that as well axle capacity that would be good place to start.
Otherwise get me the distance from the bolt hanger center to the bolt center of the equalizer that the springs attach to.
