Re: WW Repairs
I don't know if this has been covered in this topic but probably so and for that I apologize in advance. I have a 2005 weekend warrior FK2100 and I broke a leaf spring somehow during our last outing. I look at the WW site and they say the axles are rated at 3575lbs and the GVWR is 7650lbs. I removed the broken spring and im looking to "upgrade" to a heavier spring so I can get more longevity out of it. Im not a math wizard but if I take the 3575รท2= 1787lbs (roughly per spring). I fiqure that they either but a 1750lbs or a 2000lbs spring in these axles. The current ones are a 4 leaf configuration. I dont see any markings on the springs. They measure 25 1/4 eye to eye. Would I be better off sticking with a 2000lb springs or go with a 2400lb spring. Etrailer has the 2400lb springs but talking to their "tech support" didnt give me much confidence. Eastern Marine offers a 2000lb spring. I know if I go with the 2400lb I would be over the axle weight by about 1600lbs and even if I get to 2000lbs springs I would be over but not as much? Sorry if I confused anybody. Thanks in advance for your help.407Views0likes0Comments
