You can click on the link provided to see our replacement double-eye leaf springs in the 1-3/4-inch width. These are available in various lengths and for various axle weight ratings. If your springs are still installed on the trailer it is hard to get an accurate length measurement. It is best to pull a spring out of the suspension before you measure. Also, if a leaf spring is really old or really worn it can stretch by as much as 1/2-inch to 3/4-inch.
You'll want to check the axle capacity before selecting new springs - usually the axle rating is shown on a sticker or plate on the axle beam. It is always best to replace springs on both sides of the trailer to ensure correct geometry and proper tracking.
