Review of etrailer 7 Leaf Double Eye Spring - e89FV Video

Hello Steve, thanks for reaching out. In my honest opinion, leaf springs are leaf springs. There is not going to be a noticeable difference in quality or longevity between the different brands. As long as the length of the spring is correct and the…

First off by moving to heavier leaf springs you will cause the trailer to want to bounce more which could cause another set of issues. To ensure the length of the springs are correct I can use the information off the axle tag located on the center of…

Is your axle an 8k axle or is it a 4k? If it is an 8k axle then you would want a spring like the part #e89FV but you would have to move in your current hangers. Did you measure your springs with the trailer's weight on the suspension or without?…

Hello Brian; the 3/8" difference isn't enough to matter so you can use the #e89FV as a replacement. We do have the U-Bolt Kit for Mounting 5,200-lb to 7,000-lb Round Trailer Axles #APUBR-8 for 3" diameter axles. This has 7" long…

Hello Matt, I can help you determine the right replacement double-eye leaf springs for your 2024 Brinkley Z2900, though we don't have any way of knowing what specific ones you need. It's pretty easy though, as all you need to do is measure…

Hello Pat, The 7-Leaf Double-Eye Spring for 8,000-lb Trailer Axles - 24-7/8" #e89FV are our own product, so we're the manufacturer and they are made in China. The Dexter 7-Leaf Double-Eye Spring for 8,000-lb Trailer Axles - 24-7/8" Long…

Hey Darrel, we actually have exactly what you are looking for with the part #TRU52FR which is for a 7k axle and is 25-1/4 inch from eye to eye. This is also a 6 leaf spring as well. The spring you referenced would be too short.

Hey William, the leaf spring part #e94SR is for a 6k rated axle which has a 3 inch diameter so for a u-bolt kit you'd want the part #SP01-060. If your current u-bolts are in good shape though you can just reuse them.

Hey Timothy, I know the temptation is to go with a higher rated spring since bigger is better. But in reality the correct rated spring will give you a better ride quality since the heavier the spring the stiffer it will be. So instead I would…

There will be different dimensions between the hangers. From front to back your hangers for that 20-3/8 inch spring like #e84SR will be 24-3/4 on center then 29 inches on center and finally 24-3/4 inches on center. This will put each of the 3 axles…

The spacing will depend on the axle diameter and on which particular spring hanger kit you use. If you have a 6000 lb 3 inch diameter axle, and you're using the #APT5 hanger kit which includes 7-3/4 inch equalizers and 2-5/8 inch shackle straps…

Thanks for reaching out, Eric! According to my research it looks like you're needing to space the outer hangers 29-1/2" apart and the inner hangers 33" apart since you have 26" long leaf springs. If you check out the linked photo…
