Hey Jason, thanks for reaching out. Yes, we do have 4-leaf 26" long double eye leaf springs like part # e48SR. I'd just want to make sure the springs are appropriately rated for your axle.

The # e22YR spring is for a 4,000 lb axle (2,000 lbs per spring), so we'll just want to be sure this matches up with your axle. This spring has a dacromet coating which is good for marine/saltwater applications.

What trailer do you have? Do you know the weight capacity of each axle?

My trailer takes slipper leaf springs. Double eye wont fit as there is only one eye on this style of trailer.

@JasonA Oh my bad you said slipper and I totally missed it. We don't have one exactly 26" long but we do have a 4-leaf 26-5/8" long slipper spring part # SP-230275. This is also for a 4,000 lb axle. That'll be the closest we have. Should be fine for replacing a 26 incher as long as the weight capacity it good.

@JesseM Yes that looks correct, I was looking for something saltwater rated.

@Jason Sorry but we don't have anything in that size/capacity with a marine grade coating. It's just a standard black powder coating. It has decent rust resistance but not as good as dacromet.

I have a 5 star single axle boat trailer that sees saltwater twice a month. So far so good. I did pre- spray them with an any corrosive spray made by CRC before installing. My trailer is a 1998 and the old springs lasted until this year. Hope these do too.

@Jim Nice! Glad to hear the leaf springs have been working out. Good call on the anti-corrosive spray too - that's a good idea!

@JesseM how do you measure slipper leaf spring length

@Jason Slipper springs are measured from the center of the eye straight across to the end of the slipper end. I don't have a way to add pictures on here but if you go to the part page for the 5-Leaf Slipper Spring # e74SR you can see a diagram sowing how it's measured.
