Expert Reply:
For your 1200 lb trailer capacity, I recommend the 2000 lb leaf springs like # e84SR. These will have a 1000 lb capacity each. These come in different lengths, so I have attached the options for you in a link.
If you have slipper springs instead of double eye springs, then the 2-Leaf Slipper Spring w/ Flat End for 1,800-lb Trailer Axles - 30" Long # e29SR are the only option we have that won't give you too rigid a ride on your trailer.
