Leaf spring

[hammerhead]

Ok, I tried a search but couldn't find anything.
Has anyone install heavier leaf springs on large slide side because 5th wheel leans about 1" due to normal weight distribution? This is before loading for trip. Thanks
I have 2016 jayco north point 241rlts.

I replaced all 4 of mine with 7 leaf springs from 6 due to one breaking and each one being flat vs curved. What is important is the measurement from eye to eye. You cannot replace just one side. You must do each axle, so in your case 4 would be the proper course of action.

They were 24 7/8 eye to eye on my unit.

Find a spring shop. If they don't have what you need on hand, they can either order or make what you need.

If it's just a bad leaf, you should be able to get a replacement. A spring shop can rebuild it for you.
