I’d like a bolt on replacement shackle and gas shocks that improve the ride and help for some washboard gravel etc Can you send me a full detail o. What I should purchase please?

The Triangular Equalizer # TREQ310 is a replacement for the Dexter 13-10 on your 2022 Nash 23D travel trailer. You should consider upgrading to the MORryde ALLTREK 4000 Shock Absorbing Equalizers # MR89DR. These will pair with either the 2-1/4" # MR46ZR or 3-1/8" # MR76ZR shackle kits depending on the length from center hole to center hole on your shackle links.

While we do not carry the same KYB shocks installed by Nash we do have the Lippert Bolt-On Shock Kits. These are available for a 2-3/8" # LC281255 or 3" Axle # LC281281.

My Nash 23D measures 32" axle to axle. Will these fit my application even though they say for 33" axle spacing?

@Larry It is best to measure your equalizer to verify which is best to use on your Nash 23D. I always recommend verifying this as trailer manufacturers can sometimes just use whatever parts they have. This equalizer has the holes spread 6-1/2" on center if yours are over 7" please let me know.

@BudM My equalizer holes are 6" apart and my axles are spaced at 32".

@Larry Perfect, you can use the parts above. The 1/2" difference will be made up from the axle straps.

Can you get me the distance you have between the left and right bolt holes of your current equalizers? With that I can see what would be best option.

Answer 9

Suspension bolts are not designed to be torqued down tightly as this prevents the suspension from being able to move like it needs to be able to do. So the included solution with the kit part #AP233 is the lock nuts of the kit. The nuts have nylock…

The equalizers in the kits #K71-652-00 and #K71-654-00 that you referenced are actually the exact same. The only difference between these kits is that the 652 comes with replacement shackle straps while the 654 only comes with the equalizers and no…
