One the trailer I'm looking at it has leaf springs for the axles. My Road Boss trailer has torsion springs. Both trailers are 7000lb axles with dual singles. Are the torsion better than leaf? Will the leaf last or ride better? I am sure leafs will be fine, but I don't want to downgrade any if possible. The dealer prefers leaf springs. Thanks again-Bob

I'll second that third party image
