You will want to raise the weight off the suspension before measuring your current springs to get the most accurate measurement. If the measurement...

• Replacement Leaf Springs and Shackles for 2014 Evergreen Amped 28FS Toy Hauler
  MORryde does have a suspension upgrade kit that I highly recommend. It comes with 1/2" thick shackles, along with wet bolts and bronze bushings. You will want to choose a kit based on the length of your current shackles. For 2-1/4" you need the # MR46ZR and for 3-1/8" the # MR76ZR. For replacement leaf springs you will need to know your axle capacity along with your spring eye to spring eye measurement. Your current leaf springs will be slightly elongated since they flatten over time so...

• How to Determine Correct 3,500 lb Leaf Spring Size
  You definitely want to keep the same weight capacity leaf springs on both sides; having different capacities will cause uneven wear on the tires and other suspension components. Your 2018 Coachmen Clipper 17BHS will have a 3,500 lb axles, so to determine the correct replacement leaf springs you'll need to measure your current leaf springs from center-to-center of the spring eyes. Leaf springs also flatten a bit over time, so you should go with ones that measure a bit shorter than what...

• How To Choose Correct Replacement 28-1/2" Long Leaf Springs for a Trailer
  In order to find the correct replacement leaf spring for a trailer you first need to start by noting the type whether that be slipper or double eye. Then, you'll need to measure their unloaded length via jacking up the trailer. If the springs are worn they will measure longer than their replacement. Lastly, you will need to note the axle capacity which is found on the tag in the center of the beam. Please note, the number of leaves does not really denote capacity as leaves have different...

• How to Find Replacement Leaf Springs for 2012 Keystone Cougar 27RLS
  The size of the replacement leaf springs on your 2012 Keystone Cougar 27RLS should be the same as what you have now. To be more specific, you need to match the length as well as the axle capacity. Based on the weight of your trailer it looks like you have 3,500 lb axles but I would check the axle tag to be sure. The length is something you will have to measure. The standard is the spring eye to spring eye measurement. You can also use the flat measurement since your leaf springs will...

• Will Switching to 3,500 lb 4-Leaf Double-Eye Springs Impact Ride Quality & Ride Height
  Installing a 3,500 lb 4-leaf like the # e97SR won't impact your ride quality assuming they are the same 3,500 lb capacity. Leaf count can vary within the same capacity springs, but they will all work the same. The only advantage might be a slight increase in durability with the extra material. The ride height will only be impacted if the springs are mounted on top of the axle. Your typical leaf will be 5/16" - 3/8" thick so it wouldn't be a noticeable difference.

• How to Find Replacement Leaf Springs for 1960 Shasta Airflyte Trailer
  To find the correct replacement leaf springs for your 1960 Shasta Airflyte trailer you will need your axle capacity and the length of the leaf springs.

• Replacement Leaf Springs and Hardware for 2008 Venture Boat Trailer
  To find replacement leaf springs you will need to know your axle capacity along with the length of your current leaf springs. If you don't already know the axle capacity I would try checking the axle tag to see if it is listed. If not, you can call Venture with the VIN and they should be able to tell you. Once you have the capacity go ahead and measure the length of your leaf springs. This is the spring eye to spring eye measurement. I have attached an article below which has a video...

  For your 2015 Keystone Bullet we have two possible leaf spring solutions since you have 3,500 lb axles.

• Replacing Leaf Springs On A Vintage 1965 Streamline Empress
  Hey Skip good to hear from you again. The # e97SR leaf spring that you mentioned is going to be our best option for replacing the springs on your 1965 Streamline Empress. All of the 2" wide leaf springs that we carry are going to be slipper springs. A 2" wide double eye spring really is a thing of the past so going to a 1-3/4" spring will be the only option if you want new springs. The MORryde wet bolt kit and the equalizer that we discussed are designed to work with a 1-3/4" wide spring,...

• Replacement Leaf Spring for a 2011 Forest River Rockwood 1940LTD
  Thanks for the picture and the measurement! If you measured your suspension with the trailer sitting on the ground the springs have stretched with the years of use and won't be 28" long. You're probably going to be closer to 27" which means you'll need the 4-Leaf Double-Eye Spring for 3,500-lb Trailer Axles item # e97SR or even 26" which you'd replace with the item # e77SR. To get an accurate measurement of the eye to eye distance you will want to jack up one side of your Rockwood trailer...

• What Is The Optimum Angle For Shackle Straps To Sit At On The Equalizer
  There isn't an exact angle to go off of when it it comes to shackle straps, but we try to them to sit in a 'W' shape to allow for the suspension to travel without binding up. Depending on the length of the shackle straps the angle can vary a bit so it's a bit of a guessing game to get it perfect. If you're replacing your shackle straps, equalizers, or leaf springs you'll want to make sure that you properly measure each component and get matching sizes to avoid any issues with the suspension...

• Is It A Problem If I Get Higher Rated Leaf Springs?
  Hello Crystal. It is possible to replace leaf springs with higher rated springs, as long as the eye-to-eye length of the spring stays the same. That said, adding higher rated springs does not increase the carrying capacity of your trailer. So even if you were to put a 2,500 lb each spring on a 3,500 lb axle, you will still be limited to the 3,500 lb capacity of the axle. Also, adding a higher rated spring can negatively affect the ride quality. A higher rated spring is not going to flex...

• Recommended Suspension Upgrades For A 1965 Streamline Empress
  To replace your 7" long 3-1/2" tall equalizer I recommend the MORryde Rubber Equalizers # MR87ZR. These will be a nice upgrade from a standard equalizer as they feature rubber inserts to help absorb road shock. The MORryde equalizer measures 6-1/2" long and 3-1/2" tall, making it a suitable replacement size-wise. As far as the bolt and shackle kit, we recommend the MORryde wet bolt kits. The shackles are 1/2" thick and are highly durable. With proper maintenance, the bronze bushings and...

• Does 3,500 lb Leaf Spring Need to Have Same Number of Leaves as Original
  Yes, you can replace your 3,500 lb 7-leaf springs with leaf springs that have 3 or 4 leaves because the weight rating is the same. The number of leaves isn't a determining factor; for example, there are 4-leaf springs for both 2k and 6k axles. So you simply need springs with the correct rating for your axle, as well as the right length. For that, you'll want to measure the length from center-to-center of the spring eyes, taking into account you current leaf springs will have elongated...

• How to Find Correct Replacement Leaf Springs & Axle
  I can help you determine how to find the correct replacement leaf springs as well as axle, but there are measurements that need to be taken which will determine the right ones, which is why I can't outright just give you the correct axle. Let's start with the axle, and in order to choose the correct replacement for your trailer you will need to know the dimensions of your current axle's hub face to hub face and spring center to spring center; I have added a link below to a video which...

• Determining The Correct Replacement Leaf Springs For A 2021 Keystone Passport Grand Touring TT
  You could potentially replace your leaf springs with a larger capacity spring but will need to match the length of your current leaf springs to avoid having to remove and reinstall the hangers and rest of the suspension system, which is a giant hassle and a lot more costly than just replacing the springs. If you have double-eye leaf springs you'll need to measure from the center of one eyelet to the center of the other. If you have slipper springs then you'll need to measure from the...

• Replacement Suspension Parts for a 2016 Grand Design Imagine 2600RB
  Thank you for all of the photos and information! With the age and condition of your suspension system I do recommend replacing the leaf springs along with all of your other components, but in short you should be able to use a slightly taller equalizer to gain that little bit of height clearance you're looking for. The Road Armor is a good upgrade but I don't think the 6" distance between the horizontal bolt holes is sufficient for your application so I recommend checking out the Equa-Flex...

• Differences Between etrailer # e97SR and Universal Group # SP-210275 Leaf Springs
  The etrailer 4-Leaf Double-Eye Spring # e97SR is going to have the same dimensions as the Universal Group # SP-210275. Both springs are rated for a 3,500lb axle with center eye to center eye measurements of 27". They both are made of 4 leaves and have 3/8" thick leaves. The only difference is in the manufacturer of the product.

• Typical Suspension Travel for Trailer Leaf Springs on Boat Trailer
  For 3,500 lb springs like # e97SR you can expect 1-1/2" of spring deflection while at capacity. So assuming tandem axles at 3,500 lbs each that would be 1-1/2" at 7,000 lbs. Since your boat doesn't weight that much it will be a little less, but there is no way to calculate it exactly.

• Correct Replacement Leaf Spring For A Single Axle Trailer With 26" Hanger Spacing
  Our general rule of thumb is that the hanger spacing should be 1/4" -1/2" less than the length of the leaf spring. There is a small amount of tolerance,(1/2" or less) but not much. I do not recommend using a 25-1/4" long leaf spring with a 26" hanger spacing. We have a leaf spring # e97SR which is 27" long. This will be your best bet for a 3.5K double eye spring.
