etrailer Trailer Suspension - Leaf Spring Suspension - APS4 Review Video

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…

The bushing on the Rear Hanger with Bushing #30-20 has a 9/16" diameter and is 1-3/4" long so you'll need to use one of the bushings in the Dexter Bronze Bushings Kit #K71-291-00 as a replacement.

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, because it is a 3-wire light, you can wire the Red Identification Light Bar with White LED Utility Light #OPT88FR to function as rear marker and reverse lights.

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…
