Can the Conventional Ramp Door Spring be Used for a Box Truck Door
Question:
Can this spring be used for a 150# roll up box truck door? The picture looks like it has everything I need, and the rod length/door weight/cable lengths are compatible, but all the setups Im seeing on eTrailer state that these are ramp door springs.

Expert Reply:
Assuming all of the dimensions and capacity match up with what you have, you should be able to use the Conventional Ramp Door Spring for 8' Wide Enclosed Trailer - Single Spring - 150-lb Capacity # 362SA8 for a roll up door.
It is recommended to take this to an installer like a local garage door company unless you have experience with a torsion spring system. What I would do is send the information for the spring along with what you have on your box truck to the installer so they can take a look at it and give you their opinion on whether or not this would work for your particular truck.
