Broken Leaf Spring
I just got this used 5th wheel, it is a 2004 forest river cardinal 31 bunk model. It has been sitting at my folks place until I finished the hitch install, this was the first tow. It is a big awkwar...

Sounds like you're on track. Let us know how it all shakes out.
I pulled the trigger on 24 1/8 springs from etrailer. 4 leaf, 3K rating... I had to stop waffling and do it. Along with some new zinc yellow plated U bolts.
If there were a clear answer for American made stuff I'd have paid double, but that isn't so clear anymore. It seems if you have the time to wait there are American suppliers that'll build you exactly what you want, but I don't have that kinda time right now.
We'll see how these work out. They are going to be identical to what I had, theoretically, so I'll keep the best two I have as spares, and tools to swap them.
Thanks for the input folks. I'll continue to learn the hard way I'm sure.
