What you are experiencing is common on tandem axle trailers when little or no weight is on them. The weight compresses the suspension and would not allow this to happen, or at least not as easily. If you were to use the E-Z Flex Equalizers…
Leaf spring hangers come in different heights to provide more or less clearance between the trailer body and the suspension. Manufacturers determine the best spacing for the axles and sizes of the hangers, leaf springs, equalizers, and shackle straps…
Your pictures didn't make it through, but if your equalizers look bad it would be a good idea to replace them. Now chucking is typically caused by the jaws of the fifth wheel hitch being used. Some hitch designs are just more prone to movement…
Hello Jbryan, thanks for getting in touch. I wish I could tell you that based on the hanger spacing, but that just isn't enough info for me to give you precise numbers. If you are needing to replace your springs, equalizers and shackles, you will…

There is not a bushing on the hangers used on slipper spring trailers. Smaller single axle trailers will have a bolt that runs through the hanger, while some larger and tandem axle trailers will have a welded tube that the spring sits on, but…
I'm sure we can get you a pre-greased hub assembly to replace your UFP H1377, but I was unable to find any definitive information on exactly what will replace this hub. So in order to find the correct hubs you will need to take apart your current…
Installing the U-bolts and plate like that would be fine, but I would recommend putting the plate on the leaf springs and running the U-bolts around the axle instead. The good news is you're replacing them so you can make that change when you…
Thank you for providing the specs for the suspension components that you already have. Correct hanger spacing really depends on the components being used such as springs, hangers and equalizers. Most of the hanger spacing dimensions that we have are…
I am not aware of a bolt-on version of the Buyers Products Weld-On Safety Chain Retainer part #3375471000. However, if all you were wanting to do is mount your safety chains to the tongue of your trailer then you will just simply do so by running a…
