they may be slider springs if so you don't need shackles

You are starting with the wrong assumption, the correct one is: this is frick so it has to be wrong :flipoff:
I am pretty sure it is bolted on both ends of those springs.
Those are slipper springs, take a look under any heavier trailer. Ed, I would imagine your gooseneck has those.
I would say they are the proper springs as it is a trailmaster trailer not some homemade job. Also it tows like a champ.

always a good idea to lube up your tires before going offroad
Crazy idea, Do you think like a 25' RV with a 460 or 454 would pull a rig and trailer, or do you think you would just overheat everything and life would suck?

The office sucks - I wanna go wheeling!
My grandparents old motorhome had a 460 in it (Ford van frontend) and it didn't have too many problems. They pulled their Oldsmobile everywhere thew went, I know it isn't a fullsize beater on a trailer but they travelled everywhere in it in all kinds of weather.
