Worn suspension parts lead to extra movement and uneven wear over time. These heavy-duty shackle links connect key suspension components and help keep everything working together properly, making them an easy way to restore suspension performance.
Shackle links need to match the suspension setup already on your trailer, so both the center-to-center length and thickness matter. These links measure 3-1/8" from hole center to hole center and are 0.5" thick, giving you the key dimensions to compare before replacing worn links in a compatible 1-3/4" double-eye spring suspension setup.

Hi everybody, Andy here with etrailer. Let's take a quick look at these Lippert replacement shackle links. Now these heavy duty shackle links are designed to connect your trailer suspension springs to your rear hangar or equalizers, making them an essential part of your trailer suspension system. They are made to fit double eye spring suspension kits that use the 1 3/4 inch wide springs. So these are gonna be a direct replacement for many standard trailer suspensions. Now let me see if I can give you some measurements here.
I'm gonna put my ruler here so you can see it. Measuring center of eye to center of eye, I hope you can see. Kinda tricky here. Sitting right at 3 1/8 inches, again from center to center. The thickness, about half an inch.
So these are gonna give you the added strength and durability compared to those thinner factory links. The heavy duty steel construction is zinc plated to help resist rust and corrosion. It's caused by rain, road salt and everyday road debris. These links are also compatible with greasable wet bolts, making future suspension maintenance easier by allowing critical pivot points to be lubricated for a longer component life and smoother operation altogether. Their OE style design's going to ensure a straightforward installation and proper fit with compatible suspension systems.
And so what you're gonna get here is exactly what you see on my table. You're gonna get four links. It's gonna be a great option for replacing worn or damaged links on your trailer suspension.

Ratings & Reviews
These were better than the OEM parts that were on my axles. Nice and heavy and galvanized. I know we're not supposed to review cust. service, but Kaitlynn with etrailer was sooo helpful in getting my order placed after several failed attempts. Pleasant, helpful and knowledgeable. Give her a raise!
