Availability of Replacement Ramp Springs for 6" Ramp Springs

Question:

I have a 15000 or 20000 lbs heavy duty trailer with about 2 foot wide ramps that have a single 6 inch spring on each ramp. Have not had the trailer for long but it seems like the springs are already wore out. I would like to put a heavier spring on the ramps to make them easier to lift up. We use the trailer to move a bobcat model 7100 or something like that its a heavy one. We are right on the threashold of needing a gooseneck trailer for the equipment. But what kind of springs do u recomend us replacing the ones on tge trailer ramps with and could u send me a link for them. Thankyou

The closest springs that we have to what you are looking for are the 4" springs # RS16933LH for the left hand side and # RS16933RH for the right hand side. These are rated for 2,000 ft/lbs and will do a good job at helping you lift your ramps.

I would try checking to see what your current springs are rated for as well. If you have an older trailer then it could be that they are simply wearing out but if it is a newer trailer then you may need springs that are more heavy duty.
