This MORryde EZ25-005 #05 EZ Rubber Shear Spring has been discontinued by the manufacturer. The replacement is the AO25-004 #04 AO Rubber Shear Spring, which has a slightly lower spring rate (367 lb/in vs 433 lb/in for the EZ25-005).
Replacement Information
The MORryde EZ25-005 has been replaced by the AO25-004. Here are the key differences:
- EZ25-005 (Discontinued): Spring rate of 433 lb/in
- AO25-004 (Replacement): Spring rate of 367 lb/in - slightly lower spring rate means a softer ride
The AO replacement has a slightly lower spring rate, which measures the amount of force required to compress and extend the spring. This means the AO25-004 will provide a slightly softer, more compliant ride compared to the original EZ25-005.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the replacement for the EZ25-005?
The replacement is the AO25-004 #04 AO Rubber Shear Spring. The AO replacement has a spring rate of 367 lb/in compared to 433 lb/in for the original EZ25-005, meaning it will provide a slightly softer ride.
Will the AO25-004 work as a direct replacement for my EZ25-005?
The AO25-004 is the manufacturer-recommended replacement, but it has a lower spring rate. Consult with MORryde or a qualified technician to confirm this replacement is appropriate for your specific axle and weight requirements.
How do I know which spring rating I need for my torsion axle?
Check your existing spring for a stamped number or consult your axle manufacturer's specifications. The spring rating must match your axle's design and your RV's weight requirements. Using the wrong rating can affect ride quality and safety.
Can I replace just one spring or do I need to replace both?
While you can replace a single damaged spring, it's often recommended to replace springs in pairs (both sides of the axle) to maintain balanced suspension performance and consistent ride quality.
What's the difference between spring rate measurements?
Spring rate (measured in lb/in) indicates the amount of force required to compress the spring by one inch. A higher number means a stiffer spring, while a lower number means a softer, more compliant spring. The EZ25-005 had a 433 lb/in rate, while the AO25-004 replacement has a 367 lb/in rate.
Do I need special tools to replace a torsion axle spring?
Yes, torsion axle spring replacement requires specialized tools and knowledge of proper procedures. Professional installation is strongly recommended to ensure safety and proper function.
