Looking for Spring for Model R1828 Yacht Club Boat Trailer With 1-3/4 x 30 Leaf Slipper Springs

Question

Question:

I cant find a 5 leaf spring in the weight range I need. What model spring should I order to replace the stock springs. The closest I found on your page is the SP-040275. Is this the correct spring? thanks.

Expert Reply:

As long as a spring is of the correct weight rating, size and type (slipper or double-eye), the number of leaves in a spring isn't important. This is especially true since springs should always be replaced in pairs.

If you are confident that your trailer has a 3500 lb axle, the # SP-040275 slipper spring should work just fine for you.

I have a solution for you, but I do not recommend attempting to drill into the spindle to install a zerk fitting. Instead, I recommend using Bearing Buddy Bearing Protectors to help make greasing your trailer axles easier. The Bearing Buddy will…

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 10

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

Well shackle length is mainly based on the height difference between the front and rear hangers. The rear hanger normally doesn't hang as low as the front so that the shackle can offset the difference and add the ability to move. What is the…
