Those are some very unusual leaf springs, Thomas.

The longest double eye springs we currently carry are 27" long, which are WAY too short. Even with slipper style springs, we have either some 30-1/2" options or a 44-1/8" option for a 22,500 pound axle (probably not what you are looking for).

I did a bunch of searching around the web, but also came up dry. Is this an older or homemade trailer by chance?

And, would you be interested in cutting off your current hangers and putting on new ones? I saw you were looking at the Single-Axle Trailer Hanger Kit for Double-Eye Springs - 3-1/4" Front, 1-1/4" Rear # APS4. This is honestly the way I would go as you could get a much more common sized leaf spring.

@ThomasS Had a feeling it was something like that. A lot of times with stuff like this, there is a very high likelihood that truck/vehicle leaf springs are used. There isn't anything wrong with that, but it does make finding replacements a lot more difficult. I know it's a bummer to have to cut the old ones off and weld new ones on, but I do think you will have an easier time of it if you replace the hangers and go with a more common size for the leaf spring. The following parts would be a very good option (if it's a 3,500 pound axle, of course): EMCO 3-Leaf Double-Eye Spring for 3,500-lb Trailer Axles - 25-1/4" Long # EM46RB (will need Qty.2) Dexter U-Bolt Kit for Mounting 3,500-lb, Round Trailer Axles - 5-1/2" Long U-Bolts # APUBR-1 etrailer Single-Axle Trailer Hanger Kit for Double-Eye Springs - 3-1/4" Front, 1-1/4" Rear # APS4 Dexter Single Axle Heavy Duty Suspension Kit - Double Eye Springs # K71-403-00 If you have a different capacity axle, just let me know! : )

Answer 1

I have a replacement option for you, but the only slipper spring we offer that is 1-3/4" wide and is 26-1/4" long is the 4-Leaf Slipper Spring w/ Open Eye End for 4,300-lb Trailer Axles - 26-1/4" Long #e33SR. Since you mentioned that…

Answer 2

Leaf springs typically have the part #stamped on the strap that holds the leafs together at one end of the shorter leafs, or it is painted on the concave side of the springs. The part number can then be used to determine the capacity of the springs.…

Hey Don! Do you know your axle capacity? This information is something you will need, along with that leaf spring length. I'm assuming these are worn out so you either need to account for that in your measurement or measure the flat length as…

Hello Steve, thanks for reaching out. We do carry a lot of double-eye leaf springs, but I am sorry to say that we do not offer anything 36" long. In fact, we do not have anything even close to that size. Our largest double eye spring is the…

In order to determine the torque rating for the lug nuts on your trailer you will need to know check out the chart I attached that shows all of the torque specs for all the trailer lugs available based on stud size, wheel material and wheel size.

Answer 8

You can use leaf springs that are rated higher than the axle without any issues as long as they measure the correct measurement for your trailer. For example the 6-leaf double eye spring for 7,000 lb axles part #e64SR measures 24-7/8" eye to…
