Today is all about replacing the leaf springs on a 5th wheel! More specifically, our 2019 Grand Design 28BH 5th wheel. With all of the posts we have seen regarding broken 5th wheel and travel trailer leaf springs, I decided to inspect ours a little closer. What I found was the left side leaf springs almost completely flattened out! Our 5th wheel is not overweight, so we have come to the conclusion that the flat leaf springs are a result of wear and tear from multiple trips across the country over the last few years. I found some slightly heavier duty leaf springs (3000 lb capacity per spring) at Michigan Truck Spring (truckspring.com) and they were at my door in 3 days! Replacing leaf springs on a 5th wheel is probably much easier than you think, if you can change a tire, you can change these leaf springs on your trailer!
