<p>Thanks everyone. I got a set of 1000 lb. springs that fit after quite a bit of searching. Looking forward to posting some reports once I get this rig on the road and the boat in the water. </p>

JC,<br />
Go with the 1000 # springs. The heavier springs will beat the heck out of your DB. I used 1000# on my trailer an it rides very smooth behind the car.<br />

<p>In my trailer hauling experience the closer the spring rate matches the load the less shock transmitted to the load. Here is a spring rate calculator that might help you modify your springs to work correctly. <a href="https://www.suspensionmaxx.com" target="_blank">https://www.suspensionmaxx.com</a> I found that link in a couple of minutes of searching. Perhaps there is also a website that will do a=exactly what you need.</p>
