etrailer Trailer Suspension - Leaf Spring Suspension - APT9 Review Video

Thank you for providing the specs for the suspension components that you already have. Correct hanger spacing really depends on the components being used such as springs, hangers and equalizers. Most of the hanger spacing dimensions that we have are…

Since you said your tires were rubbing I would go with a hanger setup that is a little taller like the part #AP233-H248 which has 3-1/4 inch front/rear hangers and 3-5/8 inch center. Also, while the 60/40 rule for axle placement is a great starting…

Thanks for all that info and we can get you exactly what you are needing. Since you have a 2-3/8" axle that would be a 3,500 lb axle, so you want leaf springs rated for that weight. The concern with springs that exceed the rating of your axle is…

When you say EQ-E1 I believe you are referring to the Curved Equalizer for 1-3/4" Wide Double-Eye Springs - 7-3/4" Long - 9/16" Center Hole part #TREQE1 which is manufactured in China. We have trailer leaf suspension products from…

Since suspension components use lock nuts on the ends of the shackle bolts and the bolts need to be able to allow movement you actually don't want to torque down the bolts at all. You want to snug them up so that there's no lateral play but…

The center equalizer of the Tandem-Axle Trailer Hanger Kit for Double Eye Springs item #APT5 is 7-3/4 inches long (center of bolt hole to center of bolt hole) and measures 3-3/16 inches tall. The equalizer can be purchased individually item #TREQE1…

The Curved Equalizer for 1-3/4" Double Eye Spring #A2252CB-GALV is not galvanized but it has a powder coat finish which is pretty standard when it comes to trailer suspension parts. The OD of the 9/16" bushing is 11/16" so to replace…

Front and rear springs hangers should be equally spaced around the center hanger and spring equalizer. It may be that your trailer was modified (if not originally built) with a different height center hanger and that might be how the spacing became…

A lot of it depends on the length of the springs and equalizers that are used. When using Leaf Springs #e64SR with the #AP233 Equalizer Kit and the #H248 Hanger Kit, there should be 29-1/2" between the front and center hangers and 29-1/2"…

In regards to the Tandem Axle Teardrop Trailer Fenders for Boat Trailers part #HP34VR, the distance from the center of the mounting holes to the bottom of the fender lip is 4" which you can see in the attached photo.

It is not uncommon for the trailer hangers on a tandem axle trailer to be all the same size or for there to be different sizes that can be 1-1/2 to 2 inches different in height when you compare the center hanger to the front and rear. For example,…

The Dexter Nev-R-Adjust Electric Trailer Brake Kit - 10" - Left and Right Hand Assemblies - 3.5K #23-468-469 are not designed to be manually adjusted in the way you are describing. There isn't really a way to back off the adjustment because…
