My trailer isn't here right now (parked in parents garage).  However.... I seem to recall that springs were reduced to one or two springs only, otherwise it is too stiff  with the weight imit of the Valk pulling.  It cuts down weight and bounce on the trailer.  How many springs do you have now?

[sugerbear]

only took out one. didn't have bounce but a lot of sway. i had to put a 40lb bag of sand on the foreward part to stop that.
i will be making the tongue about 20-22 in longer.

just wondering about the springs. seem i read where only 1-2 were left in, but couldn't find it anywhere.

thanks
