Replacement Leaf Spring Solution for Dexter D52 Axle with 5,200 lb Capacity
Question:
Would this be a good replacement for the springs on a Dexter D52 axle with a weight rating of #5200 lbs?
asked by: Harold E
Expert Reply:
As long as the axle the won't exceed 5,000 lbs the trailer leaf spring # e44SR would work great since it has a 5k capacity. If you need the full capacity of your axles you'd have to move up to a 6k spring with the part # e34SR instead. This would be rated a little high and could potentially give you a stiffer ride, but it would still work great.
I do want to note that using 6k leaf springs doesn't increase the capacity of the trailer, and that you would still be limited to the 5.2k rating of your axles.
