Hey Steve, thanks for reaching out. The CE Smith Trailer Axle Beam #CES84XR is a 1-1/2" x 1-1/2" square tube. The overall length is 54". The hub face length is 49" and it measures 38-1/2" from spring center to spring center.…
view full answer...I can certainly point you in the right direction. I will start by saying that our "rule of thumb" is that we want at least 1" of clearance between the tire and the trailer frame. With the hub face currently at 48", you will want…
view full answer...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…
view full answer...What happens to slipper springs is that over time they elongate and flatten out, particularly if your springs are considerably older. The most important measurement you mentioned was the 26 inches from the center of the spring eye to the end of the…

view full answer...Though I do tend to warn people about the ride getting stiffer when upping the capacity of their leaf springs, you are correct in that you will technically never be fully "unloaded". I do have to mention that this could still happen, but…
view full answer...Yes as long as the dimensions are the same you will have no issues with using the 4-Leaf Slipper Spring w/ Radius End part #SP-179275. Most bare 16 ft jons come in under 500 lbs. so the capacity will be perfect for you even if you load it down with…
view full answer...Hey Bob! The CE Smith Trailer Axle Beam with Studded Hubs #CES84XR will fit your 1988 NuWay trailer if your current axle has 49" hub face and 38-1/2" spring center dimensions (see attached photo to compare). The overall beam length is…
view full answer...Hey Gary, so the holes that are on the CE Smith trailer axle part #CES84XR are currently at 38-1/2 inch on center so there would easily be enough room to put new ones at just 3/4 of an inch past where they are now but you would need to rotate the…
view full answer...The difference between the Class II and Class III hitches has to do with their Gross Trailer Weight (GTW), their Tongue Weight (TW), and their Hitch Receiver Size. Class II trailer hitch receivers have a 1-1/4 inch receiver and can be rated up to…
view full answer...I checked with Thule and the only square bar length they can confirm as a fit for your 2020 Honda HR-V with flush rails is 47 inches long with the part #TH712200. The mounting tracks that run along the bottom of the crossbars would not be long enough…
