I am finishing up my 250 gallon reverse flow smoker and I am having a problem with the trailer sitting right. I put the tank off to one side and the trailer leans on that side. We are getting ready to take it to a set of scales and weigh it so we will know how heavy it is. My question is, if the whole thing weighs say 2000 lbs., do we buy 2500 lb leaf springs or 3200 lb or what. What rated spring will allow the trailer to sit straight? We don't want overkill with the springs so the trailer will ride properly. I hope I have explained this so maybe some of you guys can help answer this. Thank you. Also, I am putting together a complete build file I will share with everyone once we get the project finished. Thanks again
