Thanks for providing all of those specs. We do carry a few 26" long leaf springs like the # e22YR. This is made for a 4,000 lb axle, so each spring is rated for 2,000 lbs individually. We would like to confirm your axle weight capacity prior to ordering springs.

With a tandem axle trailer, we would have to assume that your axles are rated for a bit more than 2,000 lbs each. Usually it would be like 3,500 lbs per axle or more. I do suggest inspecting the square axle tube itself to see if there is an info tag. If that fails, we can usually just look at the GVWR of the trailer to know how heavy of a spring to order.

The 26" springs are a fairly common size, and once we know what weight capacity we are dealing with we can recommend a replacement.
