Smile Leaf springs

Well it happened to me on the way home from Camping World, which is good, close the storage lot. I tried to order springs from Mike Thompson Parts and Keystone was no help at all first they wanted the axil number looked all over for the so called TAG. I have never seen a tag as long as I've owned that RV ( Brand new ) so I gave up and took it to my standby RV Repair Delux Trailer. they did the job for a really good price all 4 leafs 536.00 along with new shackle bolts with a zerch fittings. he measured the old springs and told me that the original springs were not the right load rating for that weight axil. it was to be a 5 leaf and not a 4 leaf that was OEM I'm glad that all the under carriage is done now it rode very smooth compared to the original springs.
I would post pictures but with all the changes to this forum, and all the How to projects I posted in the past are gone along with all the other members projects. you will just have to read it.
going to another trip so my Monty is safe now.
