Video Transcript for etrailer Trailer Suspension - Leaf Spring Suspension - 28-5 Review

Today we're going to be taking a look at the front, center, or rear hanger for double eye springs. This hanger can be used as a front hanger on single axle applications and it can be used as a front, center, or rear hanger on tandem or triple axle applications. It's designed to fit 1 3/4 inch wide double eye springs with 9/16 inch diameter eyes. It will work with a 9/16 inch diameter bolt. Your hardware is sold separately. The units made from a sturdy steel construction that measures around 3/16 of an inch thick. It is a weld on application so it would get welded directly to the trailer frame. The holes on the top are not for a bolt on installation.

These holes are for if the installer would like to use button welds instead of or in addition to welding around the hanger. The height measurement for a hanger is taken from the center of the mount hole to the top of the hanger so for this particular unit it's going to give us a height measurement of 3 1/4 inches. The overall length of the unit edge to edge going this direction we're looking at a measurement of 3 inches. The overall height, that's going to give us a height of around 3 13/16 of an inch. When it comes to the width, measuring the external width first, that's going to measure about 2 3/8, internal width is going to measure about 1 7/8 - 1 15/16 of an inch. Then all the holes on the unit are going to have a diameter of 9/16 of an inch. That's going to do it for today's look at the front, center, or rear hanger for double eye springs..

These hangers are great for the center. They provide just enough clearance for your equalizer. Because of the length and being that I am a welder I added a support inside the hanger to keep them rigid!



by:

Megan was very helpful with helping get this order together and communicating with parts being shipped from other locations. Thank you so very much Megan!!!!



by:

great product and your staff was very knowledgeable and helpful I have told many friends about it and I will use your company again when needed



by:

Good product. Fair prices. Supper fast shipping. Great service and communication.



by:

Really like dealing with e-trailer, but am rather disappointed with the Hangers I ordered. They were smashed so hard in the die press during manufacture, that I am concerned about stress cracks. I attached 2 pics, and you can see the steel was slammed so much that it literally pinched it over a sixteenth of an inch at the base of the ears. Sad thing is, I don't have alot of time, and am forced to use them. I hope they don't break. The hangers I got in a previous kit seemed fine. I wonder why these should be different.



by:

Very convenient ordering product



by:

worked perfect!



by:

GOOD AND TO SPEC



by:

Just what I ordered and got here fast



by:

Fantastic product. Just wish your shipping was faster



by:

Product was high quality, arrived quickly and worked well!



by:

I rebuilt the under carriage of my older trailer and purchased parts from etrailer. I replaced single leaf spring with their 5 leaf springs and used their heavy duty suspension kit and heavy duty hangers. Everything works great and would recommend etrailer parts to anyone. Great prices and great and friendly service.

Still satisfied with the products I bought through etrailer! Works great!



by:

Etrailer is always wonderful to deal with. From full suspension kits to simple hangers, i always get more than i expect.



by:

This bracket is better than the original factory one!



by:

Service from E trailer is outstanding. Everyone does there utmost to insure that you are more than satisfied with the product and service.
Having said that, I need to be honest about the hangers I received. I have purchased these same hangers 3 times and in each case the holes for the 9/16" bolts were drilled off of perpendicular as they should be. It is not enough to create a problem but it is clearly not the way the holes should be drilled.



by:

I have never used these to comment. I carry them in case of a catastrophic failure, to have on hand to do a road repair.



by:

E-Trailer always has what I need good products good service fast shipping at reasonable prices!!



by:

The spring hangers I ordered are a fine product. I was planning to use some existing rectangle tube to make my own, but what with time constraints, I decided to order these from etrailer. I am glad I did. I couldn't have made them any nicer, I would have only burned time trying. I could have made them as good, yes. I have the tools to do so. But I could not have made them as nice as these in a short period of time. Great purchase, and it allowed me to work on other aspects of the trailer while these shipped. Shipping was quick too, all around a great deal.



by:

I purchased the parts I needed to repair the suspension on an old Lil-Rider trailer. Knowing else had anything close to what I needed. The parts came quickly and we're exactly as advertised.



by:

I have built several trailers in the past and I am currently building a tilt bed car trailer. I have made several purchases from etrailer.com They are great people to deal with and all of the products that I have purchased have met or exceeded my expectations. The spring hangers are well formed with no distortion and true to specifications. Highly recommend etrailer.com



by:

As usual, etrailer does the job and faaast shipping!!!
I will use these spring brackets to move my trailer axles forward and reduce tongue weight.



by:

Delivery was as promised and all parts were there. Great service. Raised 5th wheel 4 3/4 inches so it would be level when hooked up to 2016 Ram 2500.



by:

Easy to install and and the trailer I rebuilt is awesome now.

The unit is still going strong!



by:

Great service, fantastic shipping and delivery. All pieces of the suspension repair of my tandem trailer fit perfectly! I have another trailer to repair and I will be ordering my parts from etrailer.



by:

I ordered two trailer leaf hangers and a 10,000 trailer jack. The price was as cheap as I could find anywhere and super fast shipping! Thanks
Will be a return buyer.

  • Raising the Height of a Trailer or Recommendation for Off-Road Travel Trailer
    There are ways that you can rise the height on most trailers so you might not be limited to trailers specifically designed for off-road use. That will widen the options for you. Basically, if the trailer has the leaf spring stack mounted below the axle then you can use an over/under conversion kit to raise the height of the trailer. For trailer axles that are 2-3/8 inches in diameter use # K71-384-00. For axles 3 inches in diameter use # K71-385-00. For off-road trailers check out ADAK...

  • Will Longer Leaf Spring Shackle Links Provide More Clearance Between Tire and Underside of Fender
    There are a few ways to gain additional clearance between your tire and fender, but going with longer shackle straps won't accomplish what you're looking for. The best way to proceed would be to either raise the fenders, if possible or go with taller spring hangers. Keep in mind that because a suspension articulates, going with a one inch taller hanger won't necessarily provide an additional inch of height. Going with a smaller diameter wheel/tire combo would work as well.

  • Raising 2005 Copper Canyon Fifth Wheel That Already has Axle Under the Springs
    There are some options for you to raise your 2005 Copper Canyon, the first of which is to replace your current hangers with taller ones, though they may not give you a great amount of lift. There is also the possibility of a lift kit, though only if your Copper Canyon has Dexter Torflex axles. For example, the Torflex Lift Kit # K71-725-02 is for side-mounted #12 Torflex axles with 5,500-7,000-lb capacities. I've added links to our pages with each of our hangers and lift kits for you to...

  • Raising the Height of a Tandem Axle Keystone Springdale Clearwater Trailer
    Using an over-under conversion kit such as # K71-384-00 or # K71-385-00 raises the height of a trailer which also raises its center of gravity. This makes the trailer more susceptible to sway but doesn't necessarily mean that sway will happen just from raising the trailer height. Its just a possibility. This is a job someone could do at one. But the new spring seats should be tack-welded in place which does require the proper welding equipment. You should not have to worry about realigning...

  • Lifting a Utility Trailer for Compatibility with Lifted Jeep
    You can raise your trailer about 2 more inches using the Correct Track Trailer Alignment and 2" Lift Kit - Single Axle # LC87120. Then you can also add longer hangers if you prefer. We do have long hangers like # 115919 which are the longest option we have. New springs or blocks is not a good option. You will probably need to use a ball mount with a drop to allow you to tow level. I've attached a link to the options and have also attached an article to help you with measuring for fit.

  • Selecting Trailer Suspension Components for Double-Eye Spring Suspension
    Attachment of a double-eye leaf spring like # e54SR requires shackle links and shackle bolts to attach it to a hanger like # 28-5. Attachment to the axle requires a u-bolt kit. We do not offer u-bolts for 2-1/2-inch square axles but we can help with all the other parts. The linked page will show you all categories of trailer suspension components including hangers, springs, equalizers, shackle bolts, etc. And the linked article on trailer suspensions will show you how all of these components...

  • Angle Of Shackles On Trailer Appear Wrong When Installing Leaf Springs
    Ff the springs you are installing are 25-1/4 inches, you would need to place the hangers between 24-3/4 and 25 inches apart. The shackle should be angled as the drawing shows in the attached helpful article, which should be toward the rear of the trailer. Make sure the trailer is not under load when you are installing the hangers and it never hurts to double check the measurements of the springs and the hanger locations as well.

  • What Would Cause a Trailer Equalizer to Flip Up to One Side
    Can you please send me a photo of your equalizer and how it is positioned on the axle? As long as the shackle straps are facing the correct direction (see photo) and the equalizer is not contacting the trailer frame then I don't see an issue. The weight on the trailer could be moreover one axle than the other which would cause the equalizer to flip up or the leaf springs could be a slightly different length. Unfortunately, measuring a trailer leaf spring is not exactly cut and dry. The...

  • How Can I Get More Ground Clearance if my Axles are Already Converted Under the Springs
    From that point the only option you will have to raise your camper would be to add longer spring hangers. Depending on your setup you can get a couple of inches out of these. Measure yours from the frame to the bolt hole and get longer ones like the Front/Center/Rear Hanger for Double-Eye Springs part # 28-5 that is 3-1/4" tall. The Tandem-Axle Trailer Hanger Kit for Double-Eye Springs Kit part # APT4 is also a great way to achieve this and refresh all of the other suspension components.

  • Can Trailer be Raised by Installing Longer Hangers
    Replacing your trailer's hangers with longer ones will raise it. Using # 28-5, which are 3-1/4 inch hangers, will likely give you the clearance you're looking for. Another option is an over-under kit. This moves the leaf springs over the axle lifting the trailer. It's often referred to as "flipping the axle' although this isn't the acutal process since trailer axles are bowed and cannot be install upside down. We carry two over-under kits depending on your axle size, part # K71-385-00...

  • Thickness of the Steel Used in the Trailer Hanger part # 28-5
    The thickness of the steel of the Hanger part # 28-5 is 3/16 of an inch thick. The only way to get 6 of these exact hangers is to order a quantity of 6 of them. The # H248 comes with a set of taller center hangers. Center hangers are taller because of the shackle straps that hold the springs to the equalizer call for the center hanger to be taller so that the spring ends up sitting level. I attached a picture that hopefully let's you visualize that.

  • Recommended Suspension Upgrade Kit For A 2013 Keystone Energy 300FBS
    I can certainly point you in the right direction. The best suspension upgrade for your 2013 Keystone Energy 300FBS will be one of the MORryde Suspension Upgrade Kits. We have the # MR46ZR which comes with 2-1/4" long shackles, or the # MR76ZR which comes with 3-1/8" long shackles. The MORryde kits have heavy duty extra thick shackles, bronze bushings and wet bolts. With proper maintenence, these will last much, much longer than the stock suspension.

  • Should Shackles Always Angle Upwards And How To Correct If The Angle Is Off
    Thank you for the pictures. The shackles should always be pointing up at about a 45 degree angle towards the axle. There is not a specific angle set in stone, but they should should make a "W" shape at all times. They appear to be positioned correctly in your first picture. However in pictures 2 and 3, something is definitely off. The shackle should never hang below the equalizer like that. I have also attached a picture showing an example of how they should be positioned. Now the shape...

    Finding replacement hangers for your 2018 Grand Design Reflection 303RLS will require measuring your existing hangers. We have no way of looking them up and although Grand Design does a great job listing parts, they don't list the hangers. We know that the width of your hanger is 1-3/4" since that is the standard for double-eye leaf springs. What you need to find is the height, which is the distance from center of bolt hole to top of hanger. This is listed as B in the diagram below. For...

  • How Do You Measure The Height Of An Equalizer?
    The height of your equalizer is measured from the center of the horizontal mounting holes, to the center of the upper mounting hole as shown as the 2" measurement in the included diagram of the # TREQ104. If you can send me this measurement, and if you are wanting a standard or cushioned equalizer I would be happy to recommend the correct replacement for you. I included a video of the # TREQ104 for you to take a look at.

  • What Happens if I Change the Size of Equalizers on 5th Wheel Camping Trailer
    When changing the size of the equalizer that is on a trailer, this will affect the size of hangers needed or the spacing of the hangers. For example, if you were to go with an equalizer that is one inch taller, you could keep the center hanger the same but would need one inch longer end hangers. If you replace your current equalizer with one that is longer, you would have two options. One would be to find shorter springs but the easier option would be to move the spring hangers further...

  • Hanger Spacing for Tandem Trailer with 25-1/4 inch Leaf Springs and 7-3/4 inch Equalizers
    For a tandem axle trailer using 25-1/4-inch double-eye springs like # e57SR and a 7-3/4-inch equalizer like # TREQE1 the hanger spacing should be approximately 29-1/2-inches. This is a starting point and you may need to adjust this dimension slightly.

  • What Hangers Do I need For My Heartland Cyclone 5th Wheel Toy Hauler?
    The CRE3000 Equalizers # MR59ZR are a great choice for an equalizer upgrade, but there is not a specific hanger set that would go with them. I can definitely help and point you in the right direction. Now, I do not have a way to know specs on your hangers based on a make and model of camper. If only it were so easy! When replacing hangers it is important that we get the height of the hanger correct. This was we can retain the factory ride height. For example part # 28-5 is a very common...

  • How to Raise a Trailer for More Ground Clearance
    There are a couple of things that you can do to get more ground clearance for your new trailer. First, if the leaf spring stack is attached under the axle then you could use an over/under conversion kit. If the trailer has a 2-3/8 inch diameter round axle use # K71-384-00. If it has a 3 inch diameter round axle use # K71-385-00. This will move the leaf spring stack to the top of the axle and raise the trailer approximately the same amount as the axle diameter. These kits will only work...

  • Can Shackle Straps Be Used at the Front and Back of a Leaf Spring
    Usually, you do not put shackle straps on the the front and back. One end the the spring should be suspended from a hanger. The reason that shackle straps are needed is to compensate for the extra drop of something like an equalizer or shorter hanger and to allow the spring to have the proper range of motion it requires. To use shackle straps in both places you would have to have hangers of different height. I have included a link to our FAQ article on double-eye trailer suspension that...

    I'd go with a new hanger kit for your single axle Shorelandr trailer like with the part # APS4 so that you get all new mounting hardware that's designed to work together and the correct sizes. This kit is designed for smaller trailers like what you have and includes 3-1/8 inch long shackle straps like the # TRSL313.

I checked with MORryde and they don't offer kits like that either. You can buy the hangers separately with item # 28-5 but it wouldn't be cost effective plus you would still need equalizers. Another option other than replacing your hangers is to use the Correct Track Trailer Alignment and Lift Kit item # RR55QX....

  • Recommended Parts and Installation for Replacement Tandem Trailer Suspension
    If a part of your spring hanger broke off I recommend replacing it entirely rather than re-welding the broken piece. Even if you got the alignment perfect, the hanger could be weakened due to the repair so its best to replace the whole hanger with a new one. If it were to break you'd have a lot more work on your hands than just replacing the hanger.

  • Will Increasing Spring Shackle Length Allow More Clearance Between Tires and Fenders
    Because a suspension is not static but is meant to articulate, going with longer shackle links won't provide the clearance you're looking for. The best course of action would be to raise the fenders to provide the proper clearance. At the very least, you want to see at least 3 inches of clearance between the tire and the underside of the fender with the suspension at full load. A better bet for gaining height would be to go with taller spring hangers. Keep in mind that the amount by which...
