We may have an option for you but don't have any way to know the current suspension or leaf springs you have on your current trailer axles. The two leaf springs we carry for a 7,000 lb axle are:

- Double-Eye Suspension: 6-Leaf Double-Eye Spring for 7,000-lb Trailer Axles - 24-7/8" Long # e64SR

- Slipper Spring Suspension: 5-Leaf Slipper Spring w/ Hook End for 7,000-lb Trailer Axles - 26-5/8" Long # e74SR

In order to determine if these will fit you will need to measure the length from the center of the spring eye to the end of the spring; you will also need to know the width of your spring and the weight rating of your axle. I have added links to help articles on slipper and double-eye suspension which I highly recommend checking out.
