Can you mount something like this which is made for leaf springs?
https://www.sturdybuiltonline.com/Bo...gs_p_1413.html Oh yeah, my brother had the same issue with his Hitchiker. If I remember he had the holes welded shut and backed with a plate and re-drilled. Not positive of the whole procedure, but the holes in the aluminum holding the springs were really, really sloppy. |

Thx Don. This appears to be for springs with bolts at both ends. Mine only has a thru bolt at fwd end. The bolt at the aft end just keeps the spring from falling down out of the c-channel after a terrific bump. I don’t think the holes are sloppy or worn. But will look more closely after your advice.
Thanks. BTW still love the Hitchhiker after 24 years in salt water and 20 in fresh. Original axles and frame. Replaced other things as necessary. |
