Hey John,

To determine the correct replacement leaf springs for your trailer you'll want to jack up one side to take the pressure off the leaf springs and then can measure from the center of one eyelet to the center of the other eyelet. From there we'll also need to know the axle capacity so that we can choose the correct capacity springs. There should be a sticker on the axle tube that lists the capacity.

As for the crossmember, you can go with one of the following options depending on your hangers/equalizers:

- Standard hangers # MR33WR
- Standard hangers but comes with drop for more clearance with lines or other things attached to the bottom of the trailer # MR84AR
- MORryde LRE, RE, or TRE equalizers # MR99ZR

I've attached installation videos below for each style to help walk you through the process.

According to our contact at MORryde, the MORryde X-Factor Crossmember for CRE, SRE, or Stock Leaf Spring Suspension #MR33WR works with the Road Armor cushioned equalizers so this would be what you'd want.

You will have to go with a sliding hitch to allow the trailer to make tight turns. For a trailer 8 feet wide the only bed length that's going to allow 90 degree turns without a slider is a stationary hitch. That being said you have two options.…
