Recommended Bolts and Shackles For a 2,000LB Single Axle Trailer When Replacing Leaf Springs  

Question:

Hi, Im considering buying two leaf springs, Item # e84SR. I would like to replace the bolts and nuts that hold them to the trailer, but I don't see them under related items. Do you carry them? I should need 3 bolts and 3 nuts per spring. Thanks

I recommend using the Dexter Heavy Duty Suspension Upgrade Kit # K71-358-00 when you install the new Leaf Springs # e84SR. The upgrade includes 1/2" thick shackles with wet bolts and bronze bushings. These straps are much stronger than other Straps # TRSL313 which are less than 1/4" thick. And having the wet bolts and bronze bushings allows you to lube your suspension which will then move more freely.

Otherwise you will need 3 of the Bolts # LC122102 and Nuts # 006-092-01 if you wish to not have the wet bolts.
