Thanks for the advice Javi and Pull Toy. Is it recommended to replace the ubolts along with any other hardware for a spring replacement? I haven't attempted to remove the ubolts so I'm hopeful they're not seized on. I may buy a set just in case. I was planning on replacing all the shackles, bushings, and bolts in the spring with a wet bolt kit. Unfortunately, the coach is laid up at a campground and I have no tools there. So, it will just be an emergency repair. Spoke with DNR personnel and they told me I can keep the trailer parked on site til Wednesday (we're reserved til Monday) without additional fees. I can't even get the new leaf spring til Tuesday morning. I hope to have it all disassembled by tomorrow. Oh, another thought that crossed my mind, should I replace both springs on the passenger side? 1 failed just after 2 years. What says the other spring wont too? And why only after 2 years of use?
