Why Should I Upgrade to 4 Leaf Springs; What Do They Offer This upgrade has a few things going for it, first and foremost being massively increased stability and safety of your trailer overall. Which really just means a firmer set up which won't allow the car to sway or bounce too much meaning you should always be in control when attacked from all angles by crosswinds and that fast flowing section of twisty road doesn't require two hands on the wheel.

By switching to 4 leaf springs on your trailer, you will not only increase the overall safety features of it but also its load capacity. You get that extra bump with the helper leaves to increase your load capacity so you are not maxing out on every haul using the standard factory-leaf-capacity stack.

It can also be a bit of longevity for your trailer as well because it will extend the life if you choose all 4 leaf springs. Those stiffer spring and shocks also lessen the stresses on a wide array of trailer components - tires, wheel bearings etc. These are all things that can help in simple maintenance and the longevity of your trailer, thus savings.
