When Replacing Trailer Axle Does the Spring Seat Measurement have to be Exact
Question:
How much variance of the spring center is allowed? Say my trailers spring center is 72, will a 74inch work also? Or is this something that has to be exact.

For axles such as # 8327812-I the spring center measurement does have to be exact, however, you can weld on new spring seats if you need to. You would need to have a professional welder weld on 2 of # TRSS238 in the proper locations.
