Please see attached image. I have noticed this at the beginning of last camping season and I ran it like this for a little over 800 miles since I noticed it. I am due for other maintenance and would like your opinion on whether or not I should add new leaf spring packs to the to-do list.This is on a 2015 Eclipse Attitude 32SAG Toy Hauler w/ Lippert 6,000lb axles. I am not sure what springs to replace them with if I go that route.

Are all the springs showing the same?I would weigh the rig first.I would be looking at complete spring, shackles and link replacementLook on etrailer.com for what packages are available.

Yeah, that looks like it has very little curvature left on it.

Yes I would replace them. Not just that but go up about 500 pounds rating.Or you can just wait until they break.

You are awful close to over loading the 3500 pound springs, if that is what you have.I would be researching something like 4500. At least something a little heavier.Measure the length of your springs between shacklesLippert website doesn't help much on spring replacement.Need to verify what springs you have!

Information on photo of tag is what I was looking for. It didn't do much good for me anyway at Lippert's website. They don't list the part number.

It looks like you have UNA-221 springs. You might find that number stamped on the thin tag wrapped around the spring pack. Spring

Okay I got the wheels off and dropped the axle.

the springs have the following stamp.

I had to run it through some filters to try and read the label better.
Now i'm off to tryout my google-foo

Did you measure the spring as it sits in photo one?
Place a straight edge across spring to get how much arc

Here is a link to standard axles from Dexter. I know you have Lippett, but there should be direct replacement from Dexter.Springs

Call Lippert or Dexter and ask some questions. Maybe TSSB needs some info also 6K axles on a 14K RV? Sounds like an issue to me and maybe a recall with upgraded axles.
