Last month I completed the Dexter EZ-Flex upgrade on my TT and replaced the 4 leaf springs with 5 leaf springs (from eTrailer.com) at the same time. Replacing the springs was recommended by a fellow Outback Trailer owner. He suffered a broken spring once so he has replaced the springs on his last two trailers.

Like chuckster said, the axle will still be 3000#... so it may now be the weakest link. But I don't see any problems with handling. I have only seen improvements and peace of mind with my new springs.
