Help with a leaf spring measurement.

[Ovis Canis]

So I just want to say, you people are awesome. Been checkin' this forum out for a little while now and am in the middle of the design process of my trailer build. I can't find a measurement though. I will be useing a 3500 pound axle with the recomended leaf springs. Can any one give the measurement from the bottom of their frame to the top and the bottom of their leaf spring. If you're running something similar to this I can use that measurement to rouphly determan how much of the side of my box the wheels will cover.

Every trailer will be different depending on size and weight capacity, and you have left out everything about your trailer that would help us help you.

:sombrero: You might think about "Torsion" axles to, you can order then at 3500lb/7000lb cap and at least three different widths-from Dexter-

That way, no leaf springs to worry about !

My trailer is over 5 years old now/w Dexter axles and other than packing bearings several times--NO PROBLEMO !
