leaf spring broken..trailer legs?

Does anyone know if using the product "Trailer Legs" cause/promote broken leaf springs?
  • If you're talking about hoisting the whole trailer to "stabilize" per the company's claim, it puts no additional load on the springs.

    To further that, there is virtually nothing you could do to the trailer in a static situation that would put more stress on the springs than the dynamic loading that is present while underway.

    I don't have nor have I ever used them but they look like they would be more work than just using boards. I see they did use boards in the video to raise the axle enough to get the jacks under it.
    Also don't see why they would cause any damage to the springs if used.
    I would save my money.
