If that info is available it would only be through Ranger as we don't have a way to look that up. We can help though but I would need to know the length of your current springs and the axle capacity to determine what correct fit would be. For example, the part # e77SR is a very popular length at 26 inches and is for a 2,000 lb trailer axle.

Answer 1

The dimension you are looking for is 4-1/4 inches on the part #e77SR. Typical spring deflection is up to 1-1/2 inches when at capacity. So that would change the dimension to 3 inches.

Hey Roy, The only U-bolt kit we currently only offer for 1-1/2" square axles is part #CE23102, which only has a 3-3/8" length so it likely wouldn't be the best option for you. Instead you'll want to order the…

Hey Jaime, yes you can replace your 25-1/4 inch 3,500 lb axle leaf springs with a 5k rated axle spring like the part #e44SR. This will increase the suspension's weight capacity and might make the ride quality a little rougher but it would fit…

Hey Kevin thanks for your question. There is not much downside to going with the 5,000 lb springs instead of the 3,500 lb. A higher rated spring may make the ride a bit more "chunky" at times, since the spring would not flex as…

The attachment bolts for a 5-bolt brake assembly like the part #AKEBRK-6R should be torqued to 30-50 foot/lbs. If you don't have a torque wrench handy, if you tighten the bolts until the lock washers flatten out, you'll be pretty darn…
