• How To Determine Correct Hanger Spacing with Single-Axle Trailer Hanger Kit for Double-Eye Springs
  In regards to the Single-Axle Trailer Hanger Kit for Double-Eye Springs part # APS4, we only have measurements available for select leaf springs such as the 3-Leaf Double-Eye Spring part # e84SR which is for 2,000 lbs axles. If these were the springs that were being used then the hangers would need to be spaced apart 20" on center. If you are using a different leaf spring which is the case here then you would need to mock the hangers up on the trailer with the leaf spring to find the...

• 89 inch 3,500 lb Trailer Axle, Suspension and Hangers for Utility Trailer
  We do have 89 inch 3,500 lb trailer axles that come with idler hubs like the part # e65GR which is a straight axle or the part # e72GR which is a 4 inch drop axle. Both of these have their spring seats at 74 inches apart on center. Then for a leaf spring the part # e68SR is for a 3,500 lb axle and would work great. For a u-bolt kit to secure the axle to the leaf springs you'd want the part # APUBR-1 and for a single axle hanger kit with everything else needed you'd want the part # APS4. For...

• Availability of 26 inch Long Trailer Axle Leaf Spring for 2,000 lb Axle
  The 1-3/4 inch spring width is the most common width seen on trailers. Yours being 2 inch is pretty rare but possible. We don't have anything that matches your length and capacity but we do have the part # e77SR which is 26 inches long, for a 2,000 lb axle but is 1-3/4 inches wide. To use this you could use 1/4 inch thick washers on your current hanger bolt to take up the extra room or you could go with a narrower width hanger setup like # APS4.

• Boat Trailer Suspension is Making a Loud Popping Noise
  If your boat trailer is making a continuous popping noise that seems to be coming from the suspension then it really could be anything involved in your suspension. The best way to find out what is the culprit is to simply do an inspection of your trailer suspension. Parts could be binding or they could be old or worn and in need of replacement. If everything seems to be in good working order it may be worth jacking your trailer up and taking the suspension apart so that you can check...

• Replacing Suspension Components On A 2005 Fabrique Boat Trailer
  I can certainly point you in the right direction. I am not able to recommend leaf springs and brackets based on a model of trailer or Vin number. If only it were so easy right? Generally only the manufacturer of the trailer will have that kind of information. When replacing leaf springs we do want the new springs to be basically identical to the old springs. The best way is for your to measure each spring. Double eye leaf springs are measured across from center eye to center eye. It is...

• Can 3,500 lb Leaf Spring Be Installed on Vintage Aristocrat Lo Liner Trailer with 2,000 lb Axle
  Yes, you will need to replace the hangers as well since there will be a 1/4" gap. The 4-Leaf Double-Eye Spring # SP-210275 you're looking at is rated for 3,500 lb axle applications so I actually recommend using the the 3-Leaf Double-Eye Spring for 2,000-lb Trailer Axles # e84SR instead. This will give you just the right amount tension needed for your trailer - the 3,500 lb leaf spring will be too rigid and cause the trailer to ride more stiff. The 2K leaf spring is shorter than the 3.5K...

• Parts Needed To Convert Boat Trailer From Slipper Spring To Leaf Springs
  Since you are converting your trailer from slipper springs to leaf springs I have linked one of our help articles below that will be able to help you with the conversion. A single axle trailer will typically use a 3-1/8" Long Shackle Strap # TRSL313. I'm not sure that you will be able to utilize your existing rear hangers as with a slipper spring the spring sits inside of the hanger. When you bolt straps to the outside of that hanger the hangers will then be to wide to fit properly on...

• Compatibility of Hub/Rotor, U-Bolts, Hangers, and Bearings for 6k Trailer Axle
  The trailer axle components between a 5.2k and 7k trailer axle are essentially all the same so what you are wanting to do overall will work. The axle # e23GR is 3 inch in diameter so the shock kit part # RM-2460 will fit it. The hanger kit part # APS4 though is a single axle hanger kit and since the shock kit is for a tandem setup it's worth mentioning that and offering the tandem axle setup # H248. The U-bolt kit part # CE23003 does fit the axle diameter, as well as the spring seat part...

• Hanger Placement with 3,500 lb Axle with Hanger Kit part # APS4 On Trailer with Axles Under Springs
  Your axles being under the leaf springs will not change the hanger location recommendations listed for the Single Axle Hanger Kit part # APS4. You would want to have the hangers 25-3/4 apart measured on bolt center. However, since your axles are below the springs you would not need to have 5 inches between the center of the axle and the trailer frame.

• Option Because No Trailer Leaf Springs are Long Enough
  You cannot use the 30 inch leaf springs as they won't be long enough; you were correct about where the leaf spring holes needed to be. What you will likely have to do is cut off your existing hangers and weld on new ones to match a new leaf spring size. For example if you have a single axle trailer with 3-1/4" front hangers and 1-1/4" rear hangers use the Single-Axle Trailer Hanger Kit for Double-Eye Springs # APS4. You need to be sure to place them correctly and I have attached an article...

• How to Determine Leaf Spring Hanger Placement on a Single Axle Trailer

Please keep in mind that you will need to determine the correct position of your Dexter Trailer Axle part # 20545I-EZ-72-15 before welding the leaf spring...

• Recommended Replacement for 5,200 Lb Torsion Trailer Axle
  I do have replacement options for you but we don't carry torsion axles so the only options we can offer you are axle-less like the Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension part # ASR5200S01 or leaf spring axles like the Trailer Axle Beam part # e55GR which has close but not the same dimensions as your existing. The spring seats however can be moved but in order to go this route you'd also need the Single-Axle Trailer Hanger Kit for Double-Eye Springs part # APS4 and 6-Leaf Double-Eye Spring...

• Solution for Needing 31 inch Long Leaf Spring for 5,000 lb Boat
  Since we don't have any 31 inch long leaf springs and I don't believe you'll be able to find the correct size anywhere else your best option would be to go with a spring like the part # e44SR which is 25-1/4 inches long and is rated for up to a 5,000 lb axle. You'll also need a hanger kit to mount these like with the part # APS4 and you'd be set.

• Replacement Hanger and Leaf Spring Recommendations for 1996 Lowe 170 Boat Trailer
  For a single axle trailer you want the leaf spring to be a little longer than the eye to eye measurement. Since all of our options are either a little below or a bit more than the 21" distance you measured I recommend cutting off the old hangers and having new ones welded on - this isn't uncommon for older trailers since they used parts that weren't part of a standardized setup. Here are the parts I recommend for your 1996 Lowe 170 boat trailer: - Single-Axle Trailer Hanger Kit for Double-Eye...

• Can Trailer Suspension Hangers be Bolted On
  The top holes you see in trailer suspension hangers such as Single-Axle Trailer Hanger Kit for Double-Eye Springs - 1-1/2" Front, 1-1/4" Rear Item # APS3 are for button welds and not bolts so these hangers should not be bolts on. The problem is that with a weld the hanger is fixed and cannot move. With bolts no matter how tight you make them the bolt will always be smaller than the holes in the hangers and given the forces applied could cause the hangers to shift and throw off the alignment...
