I personally have never seen springs rated at less than 750lb each (doesn't mean they don't sell them) so that puts you at about a 3k lb minimum on springs, even if you took out a leaf or 2 that is still four tires hitting the road and four springs working.
The axle on my utility trailer is rated at 1050lbs.
Springs rated at 660lb for the pair are common and several lighter weight springs are available aimed at the motorcycle crowd.
'Course you can always remove a leaf or two from a pack to reduce the rating of the spring.
Commandant Louis Joseph Lahure has a singular distinction in military history - he defeated a navy on horseback. Occupying Holland in January 1795, the French continental army learned that the mighty Dutch navy had been frozen into the ice around Texel Island. So Lahure and 128 men simply rode up to it and demanded surrender. No shots were fired.
