Picking Out Replacement 26 inch Long Leaf Spring for EZ Loader Triton 20TRX

Question

Question:

I need a replacement leaf spring for a 1018 EZ Loader double axel trailer. Triton 20TRX. I measure the good leaf and it appears to be 26 inches from center to center while loaded. Side swiped by a semi and hit and run, it tore throught both wheels, tires and fender but the trailer seemed ok until I just replaced the wheels i purchased from you and noticed the back part of the leaf spring is bent upwards. HELP.

Hey Raymond, sorry to hear about what happened to your trailer! That sounds awful...we do have 26 inch long leaf springs but since I don't know what axle capacity you have you'll need to figure that out first by checking the axle tag to determine this.

If you have a 4k axle part # e48SR
If you have a 6k axle part # e88SR
4,500 # e27SR
2,000 lb # e77sr

Since Grand Design is kind enough to list certain parts for their trailers I can confirm you have a 33" wheelbase on your 2020 Grand Design Transcend 27BHS. This means the MORryde Rubber Equalizers #MR87ZR will fit your trailer. Although I'm…

I definitely recommend replacing your 3,500 lb 26 inch leaf springs with the 26 inch 4-Leaf Double-Eye Spring for 4,000-lb Trailer Axles #e22YR. The 4,500 lb would be too stiff and your ride would suffer so the better option by far are the 4k…

To find the load capacity for your axle you should look on the trailer VIN plate or sticker that lists the VIN number. The weight rating of the axle should be listed on that same plate or sticker. Also, the axle could have a tag or plate on it that…

Thanks for the picture of your build sheet! It does look like the etrailer 6-Leaf Double-Eye Spring item #e94SR you purchased is the correct replacement spring. Feel free to email me back a picture of your suspension but unless you are flipping your…

Thank you for providing the specs for the suspension components that you already have. Correct hanger spacing really depends on the components being used such as springs, hangers and equalizers. Most of the hanger spacing dimensions that we have are…

Answer 10

For a single axle trailer, you want the shackle strap to be able to move so that you have the spring deflection needed for your suspension. Angled like the photo or even almost vertical is fine you just don't want the shackle strap to bind and…

Answer 11

I contacted MORryde and this does happen from time to time as the weight of the trailer can spread out the axles due to downward pressure on the springs/suspension. Odds are the 35" wheel base #MR27ZR will be the correct one for you, but they…

Answer 12

Yes, going from a 4 leaf to a 6 leaf spring would add slightly to your ride height. For example, if the current 4 leaf spring has 3/8" thick leaves, and you go to a 6 leaf spring with 3/8" thick leaves, you would be adding 3/4" of…
