Are 4-Leaf Double-Eye Springs SP210275 Compatible With Bronze Bushings?
Question:
The springs on my trailer came with plastic bushings which are now worn out. The spring eyes are nominally 11/16 but the bronze bushings wont fit because the spring eyes are not well machined. I guess with the plastic bushings they didnt need to machine the inside of the eye so they skipped this step. There is a lot of taper to the eye hole and some are smaller than others. Do these springs have well made eyes so the bronze bushings can be installed for wet bolts? 2014 Forest River Gray Wolf 25RR toyhauler. 2 Lippert axles. Thanks!

Expert Reply:
The 4-Leaf Double-Eye Spring for 3,500-lb Trailer Axles - 27" Long # SP-210275 you were looking at do have well made eye holes and are compatible with bronze bushings and wet bolts.
You will need bronze bushings with an 11/16" O.D. like the # K71-291-00.
I included videos for the products mentioned for you to take a look at.
