Most Popular Boat Trailer for 2012 Ram 3500

Shipped fast. Fair price.

Received the product on the day specified at 4 p.m. installed in less than 2 hours ....great product

Installed slippers Center Point system on out Alpine 3101RL 5ver. The install is straight foreward if your mechanically inclined. Now about the lack of instructions, nothing shipped from Lippert. etrailer provided a link to help with that. I do prefer printed instructions opposed having to scroll through my phone with dirty hands. The torque specs provided by Lippert don't align with normal torque charts for said fasteners. The banana shackles are very thin and unplated,they are just raw steel. For the cost of the suspension Lippert cound do better on the shackles in this kit. Lippert recommends in stalling the air gauge for the air bags outside,however to gauge is a cheap plastic model. I feel it would have a short life span exposed to the elements. The good now, it seems robust and likly to help absorb road shock. I have not had our 5ver on the road yet. But I will leave more feed back when I have. I purchased this suspension system after finding a broken main leaf on our front tandem. I replaced all of our leaf springs bushings and bolts with the wet bolts Supplied in the kit. FYI Lippert neverfail bushings fail in less than 7k miles. We are not over weight.

Just installed the lippert center point and I have to say very impressed on how well it’s built. Super easy to install and I can’t wait to take it down these California roads and see how much better it rides. Installed on a 2022 jayco eagle Ht 29.5 BHDS

Have not installed them yet. They seem to be much better quality than the Equa-flex that came on the 5th wheel. Very happy with E-TRAILER and their knowledgeable staff.

Have only put about 3500 miles on these replacement equalizers but they appear to be getting the job done. I'm a little surprised at how much the rubber bushing portion is already compressed but will see long term. The order from etrailer was handled correctly and timely. Happy with the company.

product shown has new top pins which were not included, also the packaging was 1/3 destroyed. My old pins do not have grease fittings, so no way to grease the Equa-Flex devices.

We have had great experience with eTrailer, These parts came in as described.

Fits perfectly!!!

Easy to install. Saw in one of etrailers videos that this bronze bushing should replace the nylon bushing in the leaf springs we got. The nylon ones pounded out okay and these bronze bushings were a nice, tight fit back in.

I appreciate your informative response to my questions. The RV leaf spring is exactly what I needed. Thank you and I will continue doing business with you. Thanks to Dan for helping me place this order.

The shock kit just came today and I haven't a time that I will be installing it so no review just yet.

Installation Review (will update after road test) Great tutorial video. Highly recommend a quality bolt/nut loosening solution. Makes a big difference. Rented an angle drill for the top bracket 5/16th" holes due to low clearance (I ended up buying one it was so useful). Job went smoothly. I wouldn't cut your underbelly until after the install. I may not cut mine at all. Top of shock pushes against it but that shouldn't cause a problem. I added a number of photos, to include the solvent and jack. Top notch company with high quality merchandise.

Holes did not line up with frame of trailer, had to cut out about 1/2in up on the 3in spacer. Otherwise, happy with the product.

Prior to installing this kit, I was unable to remove my tires without first deflating them. The same went for reinstallation. The kit works perfect and was easy to install. I'd recommend it for anyone needing to raise their trailer.

Great kit! Installed this on my 1995 Jayco Fifth Wheel and it really improved the ride height with my truck. It’s been on 2 round trips from Texas to Montana since and many other trips locally with no issues.

Our trailer was so low...that it could not make it up a low curb and some driveways - especially when fully loaded. Went with the Dexter axle flip kit. The Dexter bracket and base plate pieces are worth the extra $20-$30 compared to other similar kits - they make fitment easier, eliminate any guesswork on placement, and decrease installation time because of it. Took 2-3 relaxed pace hours for us to do single axle install. Tools required were ratchet/wrench set (13/16 deep socket worked for us for most of the bolts), cheater bar (for working those rusty bolts off), drill, angle grinder (cutter disc for oem u-bolts and leaf spring bolts that are rusted or welded in place, stripper disc for cleaning area around new bracket for welding) welder, floor jack and jack stands. We had to remove the leaf springs, as the wheel mount brackets would not fit through the openings. Was hoping we wouldn’t have to, but it was pretty simple to do. We jacked the trailer up. Removed the wheels. Removed the axle. Cleaned the axle area where new brackets go. Set the height and placement of the new Dexter brackets. We left the OEM brackets on the axle and placed the Dexter ones in the exact same position 180 degrees on the other side. Welded them on. Reinstalled leaf springs. Reinstalled axle, reinstalled wheels. Then voila! We added 6 full inches of height. Super awesome.

Install video and instructions say use the same length shackles as the stock ones. That did not work out for me with 2.25” shackles. I Used the 3 1/8” shackles to be able to install with road armor equalizer on a rogue armored toy hauler with tandem axle 7000lb. Stock equalizer was 7.8” from hole to hole. The road armor is 6”. So I tried the 2.25” shackles and was unsuccessful but the 3 1/8” seemed to work well. My wheel base center of tire to center of tire was 37” and after install was 36”.

Exact duplicates of the stock Dexter equalizers. Removed nylon bushings and replaced with steel bushings with wet bolts.

perfect replacement parts, fast shipping

They have been working as they should for the year since we installed them. Sure saved a bundle from buying a new trailer. Easy to install

The Morryde tandem kit and the Genuine Dexter single axle kit appear to be quality material, the shackle straps are massive compared to the 1/8” original mild steel straps, and so far have been easy to install. I did this upgrade on a trailer with a GVWR of only 8500# and 3500#, respectively, but if you have a heavier trailer I think you would be a fool to not buy these kits and have the reassurance that your suspension is not the weakest point on your trailer. You only need basic tools to do it, but if you’re short on time, buy the kit and have a shop install it for you. I also bought the Lippert Road armor and have a Shocker equalizer hitch and now you can’t tell there’s a trailer hooked up to me. If your back hurts like mine did after hours of towing because your wife is stuck on her phone or napping, spend the money on these upgrades.

Great upgrade for my Dexter axle. My old hangers were toast and of much lesser quality. I have about 40,000 miles on the old set.

Installed these with the Lippert AP wet bolt kit and Road Armor Shock Absorbing Equalizers. No more clanking and banging from the trailer going down the road and especially making tight turns.

I think Dexter, and by association, etrailer is selling junk parts. These are supposed to be "bronze" bushing. Even the Dexter packaging states "BRONZE". They ARE NOT bronze. They're cheap'azz steel bushings. Well I take that back they certainly aren't cheap. You can see in the first photo the old bronze bushing(these are Dexter original bushings that came with the HD wet bolt set-up several years ago) compared to the steel bushing now included in the HD shackle kit. Still doubting? The next photo shows the Dexter "BRONZE" bushing firmly held by a magnet. Still have doubts? How about a picture of the "BRONZE" bushings still in the Dexter packaging firmly attached to a magnet?

Only 4 stars since I have only used them on one RV trip so far. I installed these in conjunction with an equalizer upgrade (Morryde SRE 4000) on my 2019 Grand Design Reflection TT. For the one trip I have been on, I liked how these helped cushion the ride of the trailer. I would certainly buy them again.

All parts were exactly as described and I appreciate the timely delivery.

Sometimes finding a custom size for a non-standard project can be frustrating. Not with Etrailer. A few clicks is all I needed to find the part I required. I'm restoring an old Airstream, and this u-bolt will be holding the center pipe to the floor platform. It's exactly the size and strength I need for the job.

Great customer service and shipping turn around! I needed parts to fix my trailer to get back on the road and it only took 4 days. Can’t thank etrailer.com enough!!

Very nice product
