Leaf springs

Post by Albert »

Can anyone recommend a good trailer repair business in the bay area.
Preferably in the east bay.
Want to have all 4 leaf springs and related hardware replaced on tandem axle trailer.
Thanks

Springs are probably fine .Just replace balancers and bushings .Really not to hard with a floor jack and impact.

I had to have my axle replaced by a place in Stockton they didn’t do a good job and I had to pay Boatmasters to get it right.

I never gave much thought to leaf springs either until I had one snap on the road a few years ago. With a tandem axle you can at least limp back with a wood block and straps but with a single axle I was screwed. And since it was the day after Thanksgiving I had to pay Holiday + After Hours rates for the tow........ if yours are old, I wouldn't chance it, they're cheap to replace and you'll have peace of mind

Every-time I tow through the Yolo Bypass to/from Clear I cringe watching all the bounce going on in the rear view mirror lol
