| Post subject: | Leaf spring length? |
Does anyone know what length leaf springs are used on the trailers that Four Winns uses? Are they standard? I have a 2002 214 Funship tandem axle with 3500lb axles. 4 leafs, double eye, 1.75" wide, but how long? 25 1/8", 27", other? I broke a leaf, and am going to replace all the suspension components and would like to order it all up before ripping into it. 19 year old trailer (galvanized) that I dip in salt water frequently - pretty good longevity, but I probably should have replaced it all years ago... Thanks! |

Take a look at www.easternmarine.com www.trailerpartsdepot.com or www.etrailer to see what sizes match up |

Thanks Lou - I did that with eTrailer, and came up with the 2 different lengths. Eastern Marine has even more options. I think I'll have to disassemble one side to get take off and measure the unbroken one. And this time, I'll probably do your bearing grease/Boeshield T-9 routine. Erik |

If you can jack up the trailer so that the load is off the springs on one side you might be able to get the actual length. On my single axle I have a 5 leaf spring 26” long on each side that are rated for about 2800 lbs each. If you really want em to last you can paint em with a couple coats of rustolium first then coat with grease. Constantly have to stay ahead of salt water! |
