Trailer springs can indeed become longer after years of use. If your worn springs measure 26-1/4-inches from eye center to eye center then it is possible that they were 26-inches when new. It is also possible that they were 25-1/8-inches long since this length is common for 1-3/4-inch wide double-eye springs on 3500-lb axles. If your existing springs are 3-leaf, then you can use part # e54SR.

I have included links to our main page for double-eye leaf springs and for our article on trailer suspensions.
