Replacement 7k Slipper Springs and Hanger Kit for Triple Axle Trailer
Question:
I have an enclosed car trailer that has three 7K axles under it on 2inch wide slipper springs. I have a new dually that sits higher than my old one so I have to raise the front of the trailer to have bed clearance. My fix is I am going to add .250 wall 3x3 tube to the frame and remount the hangers to pick up the back of the trailer 3. I looked at the AP316-H302 kit but I need to measure my existing rockers to get the correct length. Is there anything else you can think of that I might need? I am also thinking of replacing all of the springs I have one that the tab is broken on the slip end so I would feel better if they were all new as well as the U bolts. I purchased all of the wire, lights and brakes for this from you and was happy with the parts and service in the past but I tried to call to ask advice and if you have not ordered something your phone system is not helpful.

Sounds like it's a good time to go ahead and replace all of your 7k slipper springs with the part # e74SR and use a slipper spring triple axle hanger kit part # AP316-H302 that you referenced and you'd be set to make the modifications you are wanting.
