Karavan Tandem Boat Trailer Slipper Spring Replacement, is Bushing On Hook End Required
Question:
I have a 2008 Karavan tandem boat trailer and I need to replace the springs. I found these springs on your website 4-Leaf Slipper Spring w/ Open Eye End for 4,300-lb Trailer Axles - 26-1/4inch Long Item # e33SR that will work great. The question I have is on the open eye end of the spring, is there a bushing that goes along with the bolt or does the bolt just sit alone and the spring will just hook around it? If I need a special bushing, could you recommend them also?

Helpful Expert Reply:
The 4-Leaf Slipper Spring w/ Open Eye End for 4,300-lb Trailer Axles - 26-1/4inch Long Item # e33SR that you referenced does not require an additional bushing for the hook end to attach to the rear hanger. The hook end of the spring will rest on the spring bolt and the only bushing needed is on the eye side of the leaf spring.
