NEED HELP???? Went to test a 83 SN and the leaf spring broke and we had to drag to house.. Now I can't find the springs. I called Correct Craft and they had no info and said to try Ramlin Trailer, but they din't make the 83 trailers and no help. I measured from eye to eye and cam up around 31 inches with 7 leafs... Someone said try truck springs, but the cost was like $250.00 Any suggestions as to where I can find springs for this 1983 trailer???? |

John, I hope you now understand that calling CC is fruitless and that's with anything regarding our older boats. You come here first!!  ------------- /diaries/details.asp?ID=1622" rel="nofollow - 54 Atom /diaries/details.asp?ID=2179" rel="nofollow - 77 Tique 64 X55 Dunphy Keep it original, Pete < |

Well back when I lived in Orlando and redid my 79 I used to go over to CC and get all the help, parts, decals, tricks of their trade on a regular basis. Kinda forgot that was 35+ years ago DUHHH |

Been looking for the same. mine are original 83 and likely will break one day. Looks like the 30" 6 leaf will be the one to do the trick. looks like the axle will move forward about .5" which isn't bad. |

| The original springs are 30”. Springs are measured eye to eye, unloaded. Measuring them with the weight of the trailer (or trailer + boat) will give a false (long) measurement, especially if they are a bit tired. |
