Hey Jeremy, I wish there was a way I could get you the length you'd need but trailer manufacturers do not record that info and make it available. It's not like cars where all of the parts are meticulously detailed. Only solution is to measure…
view full answer...We don't have a way to look up the length of your leaf springs as that's not something that a record was kept for. But I can say that nearly every 3,500 lb axle spring out there needs the 25-1/8 inch replacement like the part #e54SR so while…
view full answer...It sounds like you're asking about the torque spec for the castle nut on your 3,500 lb axle. There is no specific torque rating when installing the castle nut on any axle. You want to run the nut down until there is no side to side play in the…

view full answer...If you are wanting to go to higher capacity leaf springs I would advise against it. The problem is that since the trailer axle is rated for 3,500 pounds you won't gain any additional capacity by switching to higher capacity springs. What it will…
view full answer...The 3-Leaf Double-Eye Spring #D217242 that you referenced would work perfectly for you. You are correct, springs tend to flatten out over time so that is why your old spring is slightly longer than the #D217242. We always recommend you replace leaf…
view full answer...Spring #e84SR being slightly off from the existing hanger spacing you have now would require welding on new hangers on a single axle trailer. The end of the spring that uses the shackle strap and is not secured to the hanger alone should be slightly…
view full answer...If the U-bolts are 9/16 inch diameter, the torque specs should be between 65 to 95 foot lbs. If the U-bolts are 3/8 inch diameter, the torque should be between 30 and 50 foot lbs.
