Expert Reply:
Hey Donald. The Dexter 072-032-00 is a 26-1/2" long slipper spring, with a hook end, 5-leafs, that works with a 7,000 lbs axle. Our closest option to replacing this spring is the 5-Leaf Slipper Spring for 7,000-lb Trailer Axles - 26-1/2" Long item # EM78UJ. This spring is sold individually and each one has a 3,500 lbs capacity.
