Trailer leaf springs question.

[BigRAWesty]

It is only 250kg more than they are now.
And seeing the trailer is only 2-3 yrs old and the springs are shot and sagging, it's definitely had its fair share of loaded work.

Maybe only 250kg.. But that's another boat..

I fitted them up and the boat sits back in its normal position.

I also can see that I did have the tyres rubbing on the guards which I thought weren't. Yet.

I hope it's not too stiff.
Didn't seem that way but I'm only looking from the top.
Lower the tyre pressures for a bit more forgiveness.
We'll see, easily changed to a lighter spring.
But I'll wait till Melbourne cup long weekend on the Murray in Yarrawonga, when it will be fully loaded once again.

If it has anything to do with trailers.
I would contact STEFAN from Melbourne Trailer & Caravan Supplies in Chelsea Heights (03)8773 8773 . He is PRO !

I went in there needing a few parts for my camper trailer . I dropped my axle off . And basically he made from scratch a whole new set up with brakes . He also asked me what i'm carrying what weights , what car . he got custom made me leaf springs so the centre weight sat even.

I came out of there with a whole new axle , brakes , lines , manual brake coupling, custom leaf springs and even 3 new sunraysia 13 inch rims . all put together. all I had to do was just go home and attach together.

I had a excellent experience with them. I went in there not knowing anything bout trailers, when I came out I had more confident knowlege

Cost me under $700.
