SEHNSUCHT SW5 Replacement 5-Leaf Trailer Spring Kit 25-1/4" Eye-to-Eye — 6000 lb Tandem (2×3000 lb) with U-Bolts & Hangers

SEHNSUCHT's replacement SW5 5-leaf trailer spring kit delivers a 6000 lb tandem-axle suspension solution with two 3000 lb double-eye leaf springs plus U-bolts and hanger components for a full swap-out.

When your trailer's ride quality or load capacity is compromised, replacing worn springs and fasteners restores handling and safety. This kit is designed as a direct replacement for SW5-style 5-leaf springs and includes the springs, two U-bolt sets and a complete hanger/equalizer assembly so you can rebuild the tandem axle suspension without sourcing parts separately.

How much load capacity will this kit support?

Each leaf spring in the set is rated for approximately 3,000 lb, giving a combined tandem-axle capacity around 6,000 lb when both springs are installed and properly matched to your trailer. Capacity depends on correct installation, spring alignment and overall vehicle configuration.

• Individual spring capacity: 3,000 lb
• Tandem axle capacity (typical): ~6,000 lb
• Intended axle range: 5,200–6,000 lb standard trailers
• Eye-to-eye length: 25-1/4"; free arch: 3"

What components are included and what do they fit?

The package supplies two 5-leaf double-eye springs plus hardware: two complete U-bolt kits and a hanger/equalizer kit. The U-bolts suit 3" round axles and the hanger kit is sized for 1-3/4" wide leaf springs.

• 2 x 5-leaf double-eye springs (1-3/4" leaf width)
• 4 x 7" U-bolts (1/2" thread, 3 1/9" inside curvature) with tie plates and nuts
• 2 x EQ-E1 equalizers, 6 hangers, 8 shackle straps, bolts and locknuts
• Hardware sized for 3" axle and 1-3/4" spring packs

What materials and durability features does this kit offer?

Springs are stamped from heavy-duty carbon steel engineered for strength and consistent spring rate. An anti-rust coating helps resist corrosion to prolong service life in road and weather exposure.

• Heavy-duty carbon steel leaf construction for load stability
• Protective anti-corrosion finish on springs and metal hardware
• 9/16" bushing diameter for standard double-eye mountings
• Assembly note: tighten nuts horizontally to ensure proper seating and performance

How do I know this kit will replace my SW5 setup correctly?

The kit is specified as a direct SW5 replacement with matching eye-to-eye dimensions and spring arch so it fits trailers using that common configuration. Verify axle diameter, leaf width and hanger spacing against your trailer measurements before purchase to confirm compatibility.

• Designed to replace SW5-style 5-leaf springs
• Eye-to-eye length and free arch match typical SW5 specs
• Includes hanger and equalizer parts for standard 1-3/4" leaf springs
• Intended for 3" round trailer axles (U-bolt curvature and length included)

Who is this for? This SEHNSUCHT replacement kit is intended for DIY trailer owners, repair shops and fleet managers who need a full tandem-axle spring rebuild using SW5-compatible components. It's suitable if you want to restore rated load capacity on standard 5,200–6,000 lb trailers, replace corroded hardware with matched parts, or update worn suspension pieces with a single, consolidated kit. For best results ensure your trailer measurements (axle diameter, spring width, hanger spacing) match the kit specifications and follow proper tightening sequence and torque recommendations during installation.
