etrailer Trailer Suspension - Leaf Spring Suspension - APS3 Review Video

For a 2,500 lb leaf spring we have the part #e66SR that would work well. This spring is 25-1/4 inches long. For u-bolts we have a few different sizes depending on the size of your axles. What you will need to do is measure the diameter of your axles…

Yes, you can as the size is very similar and it's a very common tire size change. So if you had a 5 lug wheel currently you could use the part #AM30850 or for a 4 bolt wheel you'd want the part #AM30790 which also has a galvanized wheel and…

You certainly can go with a 2,500 lb rated axle leaf spring on a trailer that currently have 2,000 lb capacities. It would just give you a slightly stiffer suspension setup. You should note that doing this does not give you any additional weight…

Usually wheels/rims do not carry a speed rating but trailer tires definitely do. Our trailer tires have a default speed rating of 65-mph unless we indicate otherwise in their specs. All tires and wheel/tire products in your 5.30-12 size are shown on…

Our general rule of thumb is that the hanger spacing should be 1/4" -1/2" less than the length of the leaf spring. There is a small amount of tolerance,(1/2" or less) but not much. I do not recommend using a 25-1/4" long leaf…

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…

Sorry for the confusion but with the mounting brackets for your single axle trailer being separated 25-3/4" on center you will need to use a 26" leaf spring. We offer this length leaf spring in a couple different weight capacities. 4,000LB…

Yes, you can install use the leaf spring part #e22YR on a square axle trailer like you have.

As a general rule of thumb on a single axle trailer the hanger spacing should be around 3/8" shorter than the spring eye to spring eye measurement of your leaf spring. So for a 23-1/8" long leaf spring like the #e59SR you would want your…

I spoke with my contact at Fulton and as long as the part that swings away when using the Fulton Fold-Away Coupler Hinge Kit #FHDPB350101 is not very long (which is doesn't appear to be) you will be just fine. If it were fairly long then you…

Yes, you can replace your slipper springs with double eye springs. The Double-Eye Spring #e27SR measure 26 inches from center of spring eye to center of spring eye and would work for you; these have a 2,250 lb capacity each though you will need to…

In this case I would choose a new set of double eye springs and then weld new spring hangers accordingly. I have attached a link to our double eye springs for you. For example, you could go with the 3-Leaf Double-Eye Spring, #e66SR, which has a 1,250…
