I have a 1984 Bayliner bass boat. Model number 1710 on the original trailer. I've had a problem with this trailer since I've owned it. The fenders are not outboard of the boat like most trailers. The fenders sit under the boat by about 3 inches on each side and they are very close to the hull and the tires don't have much room under the fenders. In the past I have hit potholes large enough for the tires to rub the fenders. Several times the fenders have been bumped up into the boat so I added 1/2 inch to the bunks to eliminate that problem.

Last year I had to replace one of the leaf springs and everything has been ok but I just noticed that I probably got the wrong spring. It appears to be a bit shorter than the original spring and it doesn't have as much curve to it so one side of the trailer sits slightly lower than the other and that makes the tire on that side closer to the fender.

Does anybody know the correct spring for that trailer????

This I do know. It's a 4 leaf spring, 1 3/4 inches wide.

Any help would be appreciated.

          Thanks.

If you take your trailer to a spring shop, they can re-arc the springs or add a leaf for more lift.     Happy fishing (here soon).
