single sled trailer leaf spring replacement

[garye5007]

Hi, Figured I would try here as it was the first trailer forum I came across...
the leaf springs on my home built (not by me) trailer went to pieces.Double eye spring bolt centers measure 28-1/2". can't seem to find that exact size I can't measure old springs as they aren't in one piece. Anyone have a guess what length eye to eye I should get? can i get away with a little shorter or longer?
Any advice would be appreciated!

Take the pieces to a spring shop and ask them, but I suspect you're looking at
replacing shackles and hangers as well a springs. The frame measurement from front hanger to
rear shackle maount will help the spring shop.
