When your trailer hits bumps or uneven ground, you want both axles working together instead of fighting each other. The 7-3/4" long curved equalizers in this kit make sure of that. They keep the weight spread evenly across both axles so the ride stays level and the suspension works smoothly without overloading one axle. It’s a simple, proven design that keeps your setup steady mile after mile.
A solid hanger setup is what keeps the whole suspension anchored. This kit includes six 2-1/2" tall hangers—front, center, and rear—so you get consistent geometry and strength across your tandem suspension. Each hanger provides a firm connection point for the springs and equalizers, built to handle trailer axles rated from 2,000 lbs up to 7,000 lbs. With all three hanger positions matching in height, alignment is simple and dependable.
Getting the spacing right is key to how smoothly the suspension moves. The recommended on-center distance between hangers is 29-1/2", which pairs perfectly with standard 25-1/4" long double-eye springs. That setup gives an axle spacing between 33-1/2" and 34", keeping tire clearance and load balance right where they should be. It’s a well-tested layout that takes the guesswork out of building or refreshing a tandem-axle suspension.
Everything in this kit is matched to work together. You get (8) 2-5/8" long shackle straps, (14) 3" x 9/16" diameter shackle bolts, and (14) matching 9/16" diameter locknuts that stay secure under road vibration. The hardware connects smoothly through the hangers, equalizers, and springs so you can count on a tight fit that resists wear and movement over time.
Whether you’re replacing worn components or building from scratch, this kit has what you need to attach four double-eye leaf springs to your trailer frame. It simplifies setup by bundling all hangers, equalizers, shackles, bolts, and locknuts together—everything but the springs and axle hardware—so you can focus on getting your trailer rolling straight and smooth again.
