Set of 2 Front Hanger for 3" Slipper Springs — 6-1/4" Tall — 1" Bolt Hole
Lot of 2 Dexter-made steel front hangers for heavy-duty trailer suspension setups using 3" wide slipper springs. Designed for 10,000-lb and 12,000-lb Dexter axle applications where the hanger height, spring width, and bolt size match your trailer.
Overview
This front hanger lot is built for heavy-duty trailer suspension repairs, fabrication, and service work using 3" wide slipper springs. Each hanger suspends the spring from the trailer frame and creates the front pivot point your leaf spring needs to flex properly under load. With a 6-1/4" overall height and 1" bolt hole, this hanger is intended for demanding 10,000-lb and 12,000-lb Dexter axle suspension setups where the dimensions match the existing trailer configuration.
R&P Service Insight
A front slipper spring hanger is a geometry-critical suspension part. Height, spring width, and bolt diameter must match the trailer setup so the spring can move correctly without binding, walking, or changing ride height.
- Spring Width: Built for common heavy-duty 3" wide slipper springs.
- Suspension Geometry: The 6-1/4" height helps set spring position and ride height under the trailer frame.
- Heavy Hardware: The 1" bolt hole accepts large-diameter attachment hardware for heavy suspension loads. Bolt and hardware are sold separately.
R&P Knowledge Hub
Compatibility: Designed for 3" wide slipper springs used in heavy-duty trailer suspension systems.
Trailer / System Fit: Intended for trailers with 10,000-lb and 12,000-lb Dexter axle suspension setups where hanger dimensions match.
Installation Notes: Verify spring width, hanger height, bolt diameter, axle rating, frame location, and suspension layout before ordering or welding/installing.
Performance Insight: A correctly matched front hanger keeps the slipper spring aligned so the suspension can flex predictably under load.
Brand & Fitment Note
Selling Brand: R&P Carriages

R&P Repair Insight
Replace or match spring hangers carefully. A hanger that is too short, too tall, or built for the wrong spring width can change axle alignment, ride height, and spring movement.
- Check Existing Height: Confirm the 6-1/4" hanger height matches the setup being repaired or built.
- Check Spring Width: This hanger is for 3" wide slipper springs, not narrow light-duty springs.
- Check Bolt Size: This hanger uses a 1" bolt hole. Bolt, nut, bushing, and related mounting hardware are not included unless separately stated.
