Replacement 6k Rated Leaf Springs with Cushioned Equalizers for Tandem Axle Trailer

Question

Question:

I am looking at e94SR to replace 4-leaf springs on 6000 lb axle. I recently broke one. It appears the 6 leaf have an additional 1 1/8 arch and I could use the lift. Can I use these as a replacement? I also will replace u bolts, suspension bolts, equalizer and shackles 3 1/4 hole center to center

The 6-Leaf Double-Eye Spring for 6,000-lb Trailer Axles # e94SR that you referenced will work great on your trailer as it matches the capacity you need. The overall thickness of the spring pack is 2-1/4 inches which might be thicker than what you current have and could affect the height of the trailer.

For a U-bolt kit you would need the part # APUBR-8 which is for the 6k axles like you have. The equalizers you have now are Equa Flex Cushioned equalizers so for a replacement set you'd need the part # LC279688. For bolts you'd want the part # TRFA73Z916DLNZ and for shackle straps the closest length we have is the part # TRSL313 which is 3-1/8 inches long.

I do have an option for you, but we do not carry the Dexter 072-027-00 you mentioned. However we do have the etrailer Double-Eye Spring for 7,000-lb Trailer Axles - 24-7/8" Long #e64SR which will be 3/8" shorter but that is still close…

The amount of bow that's put into trailer axles like the #7359765 is based on about how much a trailer is typically going to weigh that has a 3,500 lb capacity. So there's a bit of approximation and obviously it can't be totally perfect…

I really wish we had replacement parts still for the Atwood couplers but since they've been out of business for so long we don't have any way to get the parts you are wanting.
