When choosing the correct replacement leaf spring for your trailer you will first need to remove the old leaf spring that you currently have on your trailer and measure the unloaded length as well as the construction of the spring (double eye or slipper). The new leaf will be shorter than the old ole because over time it will stretch out. After you find those measurement please reach back out to me and I will find you the correct spring. You will measure a double eye spring from center of eye to center of eye across the spring.
For example The 4-Leaf Double-Eye Spring for 5,000-lb Trailer Axles # e44SR is for a 5,000 pound axle and is 24-1/4 inches long.
