• Selecting The Correct Cushioned Equalizer and Wet Bolt Kit For a Grand Design 2800BH
  The Lippert Equa-Flex # LC145546 is the closest cushioned equalizer from Lippert to fitting your Grand Design 2800BH. This particular kit is rated for 5K-8K axles. The MORryde CRE3000 # MR27ZR is going to be the best option for your camper. While this is rated for axles up to 8K all of the CRE3000 equalizers carry this same weight capacity. Do understand the different constructions for these equalizers mean while they may look similar they actually operate differently and since the Lippert...

• Recommended Shackle Bolt and Equa-Flex Upgrade Kit for a 2018 Keystone Carbon 347
  Hey Rick, it looks like your 2018 Keystone Carbon TT Toy Hauler has tandem 6k axles which would mean that the Equa-Flex Cushioned Equalizers # LC145546 is the correct kit. As far as shackles go, you'd need to measure your current shackle and pick a kit that matches. So for instance, if you measured 3 1/8" long, then the Lippert Tandem Axle Equa-Flex AP Kit # LC64FR is what you'd need. If your shackle bolts measure something different, let me know what that is and I'll see what we have.

• Replacement Cushioned Equalizer for 2020 Grand Design 310K
  Hey Robert, are you looking for an upgrade to the cushioned equalizers you have now? If so, I really like the MORryde Alltrek equalizers as they are only option to provide horizontal and vertical cushioning. For a 33 inch wheelbase you'd need the part # MR89DR or for a 35 inch wheelbase part # MR29DR. What wheelbase do you have currently?

• Choosing Between Lippert Equa-Flex Or Roadmaster Comfort Ride For 2018 Grand Design Momentum 351M
  Personally Russ, if you are planning to keep your 2018 Grand Design Momentum 351M toy hauler and want to benefit from a better ride then upgrading to the Roadmaster Comfort Ride Leaf Spring Suspension Kit # RM-2460-2570 makes the most sense. If you choose to keep the Equa-Flex # LC145546 system you can go with the heavier springs but just know that it will likely wear the equalizer even faster since the springs will not flex as much under the weight. This means the Equa-Flex will actually...

• Replacing Equalizer And Shackles On 2018 Keystone Sprinter 5th Wheel 269FWRLS
  Hello George, thanks for reaching out. When replacing equalizers and shackles, it is critical that the replacement parts are identical in size to the stock components. There is a small amount of tolerance, like maybe 1/2" or less, but any difference more than this can throw the suspension off and cause things to go out of alignment. Also, the axle spacing is not the best thing to use for selecting an equalizer. The best way is to go strictly off the dimensions of the current equalizer....

• What Replacement Equalizer Do I Need for My TrailAir With Upgraded Shackle Kit?
  Hello Robert, Thank you so much for attaching the pictures, they’re always so helpful. In the first photo, it looks like your shackle straps are sitting a bit too vertically. That’s not a major issue, but since you’ll be replacing some suspension components anyway, we can take this opportunity to get everything aligned into that sweet spot for optimal performance. I’ve included a picture of a CRE3000 equalizer to show the ideal shackle strap angle we’re aiming for. The hole spacing on...

• Recommended Leaf Springs for a 2018 Jayco Octane Travel Trailer
  Thanks for the picture and the interesting story! We do not have 27" eye to eye springs in a 5,200 lbs or more capacity but I have a solution for you. The 6-Leaf Double-Eye Spring for 6,000-lb Trailer Axles item # e94SR have an eye to eye measurement of 26" so they're going to be an inch shorter on both axles. Based on your story, I highly recommend replacing your equalizers. If you swapped them out them out with the Equa-Flex Cushioned Equalizers item # LC145546 you would gain that inch...

• Needing Bushing and Wet Bolt Kit for EquaFlex Equalizers
  Hey Tom, If your Equa-Flex Cushioned Equalizers came with bronze bushings you can replace them with the Bronze Bushing - 9/16" Inner Diameter, 11/16" Outer Diameter - 1-3/4" Long - Qty 1 item # D014-077-00. These will replace all three bushings on the equalizer. What model Equa-Flex Cushioned Equalizers do you have? There should be a part number on the front of them. Some of these came with Never Fail bushings already installed. These won't be bronze and you would need to contact Lippert...

• Recommended Equalizer for a Tandem Axle Trailer w/ Two 3,500 lbs Axles
  Hey Michael. The 5K to 8K Equa-Flex Cushioned Equalizers item # LC145546 will work perfectly with your two 3,500 lbs axles. The 7,000 lbs combined rating would put you right in the middle of the 5K to 8K range. What you'll want to do to see if the Equa-Flex item # LC145546 is the right size for your Winnebago Minnie is take a couple of measurements. If you'll look at the diagram I attached below you'll see a left to right measurement along with a vertical one. You'll want to measure one...

• Upgraded Equalizers for 2014 Palomino Puma 5th Wheel
  Hello again David; the best option for an upgraded equalizer is the one that matches your current equalizer measurements. Keeping the same or similar measurements keeps your suspension geometry the same. Realistically, you aren't going to notice a real difference between the Road Armor or Equa-Flex or whatever else you might add. Also, they are not designed to lift the trailer. It looks like Lippert decided to discontinue the Road Armor at the end of last month and it is already out of...

• Looking For Upgraded Equalizer Option For Triple Axle Trailer With 7,000 lb Axles
  Hello Brian, thanks for reaching out. So there used to be a triple axle kit with the Equa-Flex equalizer, but sadly it is no longer available. There may be another option for an upgraded equalizer. I am not quite able to make out the number cast on the equalizer in your picture though. Any chance you could measure the length from center bolt to center bolt. Then measure the height from the center bolt line to the center of the top bolt. The replacement equalizer must be the same size as...

• Can Correct Track Lift Kit be Used with MORryde CRE3000 Equalizers
  The Correct Track Tandem Lift kit part # RR23QX cannot work with the CRE3000 kit you have on your trailer now due to clearance issues so you would need to replace them with like with the EquaFlex part # LC145546 which is also cushioned.

• How to Determine Correct Equa-Flex Cushioned Equalizers for 5,200 lb Tandem Axles
  So I can help you determine which are the correct cushioned Equa-Flex cushioned equalizers are for your 2019 Vanleigh Pinecrest, though this will require you to take a measurement. The reason for that is because there is no such thing as a list of replacement parts or parts that fit specific years, makes and models of trailers - there are just way too many trailers. But it is still an easy thing to determine with a simple ruler, since you already have the important information in that...

• Replacement Shackles and Equalizers for a 2015 American Auto Hauler w/ 5,200 lbs Axles
  I wasn't able to find any specific information on your 2015 AML Auto Hauler open trailer with tandem 5,200 lbs axles current suspensions. There isn't a database I can look at and tell you exactly what part number you will need. The Lippert Tandem Axle Equa-Flex AP Kit - Wet Bolts - 3-1/8" Long Shackles item # LC64FR are a great option and work with 3,000 lbs - 8,000 lbs equalizers. If you're going to replace the rusty old shackles you should go ahead and put in new equalizers. You will...

• Comparing Lippert Equa-Flex Cushioned Equalizers # LC279688 and # LC145546
  The Equa-Flex Cushioned Equalizers # LC145546 that includes the 4 wet bolts has greaseable pivot points. This means you can replace the lower bolts that hold the pivot arms in place and replace them with the 4 wet bolts. This kit is rated for 5,000lb to 8,000lb trailer applications. The Equa-Flex Cushioned Equalizers # LC279688 does not have greaseable pivot points and is rated for 6,000lb to 8,000lb trailer applications. Beyond those differences these are the same size with a 4" bolt...

• How to Determine Correct Equalizer Upgrade Kit
  I believe you are asking about an equalizer upgrade kit, and we have no way of knowing what is on a 2003 Sunnybrook but can tell you how to determine it. What you need to do is simply measure from center to center of the bolt holes horizontally, and from the center of the equalizer to the center of the top bolt hole; you'll also need to know your axle's weight capacity. For example, if your equalizers measured 7-1/2" from bolt hole to bolt hole and 4" from center of the equalizer to the...

• Recommended Equalizer Upgrade For A 5,200 Pound Axle On A Horse Trailer
  With your axles having a 33 inch wheel base and 5,200 pounds of capacity, we definitely have a couple options available. Both of these options will definitely work with your 33 inch wheel base and can be used with 5,200 pound axles. The first will be the Lippert Equa-Flex Cushioned Equalizers - Double Eye Springs - Tandem Axle - 5K to 8K - Greasable Pivot # LC145546. This will match your 4 inch height, but will be a bit longer at 7-1/2 inches. This shouldn't be an issue, but it may end...

• Option to Replace Equa-Flex Equalizers on Grand Design Reflection
  I could not find any reference to part 435251, though we can help you find the correct replacement for the Equa-Flex on your Grand Design Reflection. To find the right one you need to measure your equalizer from center hole to center hole horizontally and its height from the middle center hole to the top hole. For example, the Road Armor Shock Absorbing Equalizer Kit # LC696740 is 6" from center to center of its bolt holes, and 3-1/4" tall. Then the Equa-Flex Cushioned Equalizers # LC145546...

• What Is The Correct Wet Bolt Replacement For The Equa-Flex Trailer Suspension?
  The Wet Equalizer Bolt with Locknut and Grease Zerk # 126B2 and Bronze Bushing # D014-077-00 can be used to replace the wet bolts that are frozen on your 2020 Grand Design Momentum 351M. The wet bolts on the Momentum were most likely not serviced properly from the dealer/owner of the camper is my guess. If water got into the bushings and caused rust to develop this is what I feel may be causing you to not be able to install grease into the bolt. Typically the grease zerk will be the first...

• Replacement Suspension Components For a 2015 Keystone Carbon 327 5TH Wheel Toy Hauler
  I do see your 2015 Keystone Carbon 327 5th wheel toy hauler comes equipped with 7,000lb axles. I recommend going with the AllTrek 4000 Equalizers # MR29DR since you are replacing your suspension components. This is a superior equalizer to the Equa-flex # LC145546 style you are using. You should also add either the MORryde X-Factor Crossmember # MR33WR or Drop Crossmember # MR84AR if you have any sewer or other components that interfere with the standard crossmember. This will provide more...

• What Axle Capacities Does Equa-Flex Cushioned Equalizers # LC145546 Work On
  The Equa-Flex Cushioned Equalizers # LC145546 that you referenced is a kit of two equalizers. These are rated for use on axles with capacities between 5,000 lbs and 8,000 lbs. So since your 15k trailer would most likely have a pair of 8k axles this kit would work great at smoothing out your ride quality as well as being properly weight rated.

• Can Rubber Cores On Equa-Flex Cushioned Equalizers Be Replaced
  The Equa-Flex Cushioned Equalizers # LC145546 are not designed to be rebuilt, and replacement rubber cores are unavailable. Although it is a less than ideal solution, if the rubber cores wear out the only choice is total replacement with a new # LC145546.
