Dexter Trailer Springs Over-Under Conversion Kit Installation Video

Hey Jaime, yes you can replace your 25-1/4 inch 3,500 lb axle leaf springs with a 5k rated axle spring like the part #e44SR. This will increase the suspension's weight capacity and might make the ride quality a little rougher but it would fit and…

Thanks for the picture of your build sheet! It does look like the etrailer 6-Leaf Double-Eye Spring item #e94SR you purchased is the correct replacement spring. Feel free to email me back a picture of your suspension but unless you are flipping your…

Since you have a tandem axle trailer rated for 10,500lbs the 6-Leaf Double-Eye Spring for 5,300-lb Trailer Axles #e76SR are going to be the closest leaf springs we have to that weight capacity. These springs measure 24-7/8" from center of eye to…

I have checked the installation instructions for the Dexter Trailer Springs Over-Under Conversion Kit #K71-385-00, and according to Dexter they strongly recommend tack welding the spring seats in place. Please note that this kit is intended for use…

Really you're going to need to measure the distance where the leveling system is going to be installed. If that distance is more than 20', then you're going to want the 6 point Lippert Ground Control 3.0 Electric 5th Wheel RV Leveling…

The 6-Leaf Double-Eye Spring for 5,300-lb Trailer Axles #e76SR will work as a replacement if they're the same or close to the same length you currently have. The capacity difference is so small it won't make a difference. Go ahead and measure…

I did some digging around and found that the Dexter 072-099-01 is a double eye spring that is 26" and 1 3/4" wide with a 6k capacity. For a replacement you can use the 6-Leaf Double-Eye Spring for 6,000-lb Trailer Axles #e94SR. This leaf…

You are correct saying that the leaf spring can stretch a bit over time, and it sounds like that is exactly what happened; you need a 26" (eye to eye) double-eye leaf spring. I recommend going with the 6-Leaf Double-Eye Spring for 6,000-lb…

If the leaf spring stack is currently attached below the axle, which is what it sounds like, then you can use an over/under conversion kit. If the axle is 3 inches in diameter then you can use #K71-385-00. If the axle is 2-3/8 inches in diameter use…

Yes, going from a 4 leaf to a 6 leaf spring would add slightly to your ride height. For example, if the current 4 leaf spring has 3/8" thick leaves, and you go to a 6 leaf spring with 3/8" thick leaves, you would be adding 3/4" of…

Yes you can absolutely use grade 8 bolts instead of the Replacement 3/8" x 3" Snapper Pin for Lippert Ground Control 3.0 Electric Leveling System #LC225598. You'll just want to make sure the bolts you use are the same 3/8" x…
