How to Determine the Correct Leaf Spring Replacements for a 1975 Rolco Tandem Axle Boat Trailer
Question:
Looking for leaf springs. I have a 1975 Rolco tandem axle boat trailer with gross weight capacity of 3500 lbs. I need to replace all 4 double eye leaf springs. and will need bolts and shackles Cant seem to figure out an exact fit. The eye to eye measurements we took are 28+. Im guessing these are the original springs and may have flattened out from 27? Can you recommend the best replacements for me to buy? Also the equalizers seem to be flat or straight, made from rolled flat stock, but they still look okay. Thank you so much.

Helpful Expert Reply:
It may be possible that your leaf springs flattened out from 27 inches. The 27 inch leaf springs we carry for 3,500 pound axles is # SP-210275.
The bolt with locknut you need is # 166081.
