leaf spring woes

yea,
i'm in the same boat, or trailer i should say. i have leaf springs also and it's getting to that point in time where i should start to think about replacing them. an option i am consdering is to replace my axles with torsion axles. I have been considering a bolt on torsion axle...and as long as they make the right size for your trailer, and you spec it out correctly you can convert pretty easily. i am seriously consdiering this. one of the things i like about them is if you do melt your spindle you can just remove the old one on the side of the road and replace. my spindles are permanent and i would be doa. but with that said, in five years of trailering ALOT, i have never had a problem iwth my springs or spindles. i am probably jinxing myself as i type this, but ikd, just trying to give some options...good luck
