Video Transcript for Review of Dexter Trailer Leaf Spring Suspension - Standard Equalizer - AP202

Hello everybody, this is Jeff at etrailer.com. Today, we're gonna take a look at the Dexter Tandem Axle Trailer Equalizer Kit for two inch wide slipper springs. Now this kit here will include the two 10 and 1/8 inch long equalizers and the necessary bolts and nuts for suspending four slipper leaf springs from your trailer frame. So you notice the equalizers have a nice raw finish to them. Now this kit will also require part number H202 or part number H238, which are hangers to give you a complete tandem axle kit. Those items we do sell separate on our website and basically those part numbers will contain the front center and rear hangers.

Now these are designed for use on trailers with tandem 3,500 pound to 8,000 pound axles. And again, just to go through what you'll be getting here is everything laid out here on the table. You'll get the two 10 and 1/8 inch long swan-shaped equalizers. And when we say 10 and 1/8 inch long, it's measured from the center of this hole to the center of this hole. Now if you notice on here, it includes the 7/8 inch diameter center hole for your equalizer bolts.

The 9/16 diameter side holes for your shackle bolts. And the 5/16 diameter side holes for your slipper spring bolts. Now the bolts that we include are gonna be four of these 3/4 inch long by 5/16 diameter spring keeper bolts with the four lock nuts. Four of these 3 1/2 inch long by 9/16 diameter shackle bolts with the lock nuts. And then two of the 4 1/2 inch long, 7/8 inch diameter wet equalizer bolts and the lock nuts for that.

Now this kit does not include components for mounting your axle to the springs. But that should do it for the review on the Dexter Tandem Axle Trailer Equalizer Kit for two inch wide slipper springs.

My 20 year old trailer (that I use for my Lawn Business ) needed new axles and while shopping for parts I found these Equalizers
I was impressed with the price.
I received them a few days which was great since I needed my trailer back on the road quick
The new parts installed perfectly
It was nice that all the hardware was included.
The old parts where severely worn so now
the trailer rides great and I have the comfort of mind that my complete axle assembly is brand new
I strongly recommend this product



by:

took quite a while to get the kit, due to back order. Parts quality is great.



by:

Had a leaf spring break on my 18' equipment trailer. Had a tough time finding this style of equalizer locally. The kit with all the hardware was a lifesaver as the trailer started it's life in Iowa so nothing came apart. Fast shipping. Win. Win. Win.



by:

This particular part was the most perfect part for my application and it works like a million bucks!!!!



by:

The parts and service I received was top notch. I will be doing business with your company in the future.



by:

Nice job "e-Trailer"; received this "heavy" order very promptly; did not expect it so quickly in view of how other retailers/ manufacturers/ on-line businesses are behind in fulfilling orders. Packages (3) came all intact, well packed and product received in great condition. The order included:
> 5-Leaf Slipper Spring w/ Hook End for 6,000-lb Trailer Axles (2)
> U-Bolt Kit for Mounting 8,000-lb, Round Trailer Axles - 8" Long U-Bolts (2)
> Tandem-Axle Trailer Equalizer Kit for 2" Slipper Springs - 10-1/8" Long Equalizers (2)
> Dexter Nev-R-Adjust Electric Trailer Brake Kit - 12" - Left and Right Hand Assemblies - 6K (2)
> Mounting Bolts and Hardware for 12" Brake Assemblies (2)
> Bearing Buddy Bearing Protectors - Model 2441SS - Stainless Steel (Pair) (2)
> Bearing Kit, 15123/25580 Bearings, GS-2125DL Seal (4)
> Optronics LED Combination Trailer Tail Lights - Submersible - 40 Diodes - Driver and Passenger Side.
These items are being utilized in the total suspension replacement of a 10,000 gvwr tandem axle trailer. Good sized job for a DIY'er. I expect that it will give my JD 2038 tractor a smooth and safe ride as it is towed/ hauled down the highway.
Thank you.
I would/will strongly recommend to a friend/relative or associate.
( I'd take a picture of the "project", but there is a vicious rain storm occurring outside; perhaps one or two pics to follow at a later time).



by:

Perfect in every way… thanks!



by:

Parts fit perfectly. I didn't receive two of the lock nuts for the wet bolt. But after a quick email to the etrailer rep, they had a packagein the mail and on the way the following day. Very pleased with the parts and service.



by:

Contained ALMOST everything I needed to replace the worn slipper spring equalizers on my trailer. Ended up having to order four TRBU12566 nylon bushings since they were totally worn out, so I had to wait another week for those to arrive to complete the project. Would recommend adding the bushings as a "related product" or putting a set of 4 in the kit.



by:

Perfect replacement fit for my old equipment trailer suspension. Easy to use website made getting the correct replacement parts the first try. Nice heavy duty construction that bolted in exact fit.



by:

I purchased all new springs and related hardware late last summer. I installed them this spring. Everything fit perfectly but I haven`t racked up many miles yet. I will be back for more.



by:

All the right parts and quick delivery Thank you .



by:

Maybe add the plastic bushings for the springs to the kit would be great. Everything else was great



by:

Excellent service. Kept us up to date on order status.



by:

Always exceptional service when doing business here. This is a "GO TO" company for us whenever we need trailer parts because of their easy to use website, free shipping, and excellent service.

See what our Experts say about this Dexter Trailer Leaf Spring Suspension

  • Does the Center Hole On the Tandem-Axle Trailer Equalizer Kit for 2" Slipper Springs Need a Bushing
    The Tandem-Axle Trailer Equalizer Kit for 2" Slipper Springs part # AP202 uses a 7/8" diameter wet bolt to secure the equalizer to the hanger. It does not require a bushing.
    view full answer...
  • Dimensions of Tandem-Axle Trailer Equalizer
    I went out to the warehouse and pulled part # AP202 and took some measurements of the equalizer for you. From the center of the bolt hole to the center of the bolt hole the equalizer measures exactly 10 inches. The overall length is 11-1/16". These equalizers are designed for use on trailers with tandem, 3,500-lb to 8,000-lb axles. I have included a picture showing the measurements for you to check out.

  • Tandem Axle Version of Triple-Axle Trailer Equalizer Kit for 2" Slipper Springs AP302
    Sounds like you are looking for the # AP202-H202 which is the tandem axle version of the two part number numbers you mentioned.

  • Are Components of Slipper Spring Equalizer Kits AP302 and AP202 the Same
    The individual components between the two kits are the same but the quantities are different since the part # AP302 was designed for triple axle trailers and the # AP202 is designed for tandem axle trailers.

  • Suspension Kit Needed for Slipper Springs, Tandem Axle Trailer
    We offer several suspension kits for tandem axle slipper springs. The # AP202-H202 kit that you referenced is designed for slipper springs and tandem axles. The kit includes 2 front hangers, 2 center hangers, 2 rear hangers, and 2 equalizers, as well as the needed bolts and nuts. # AP202-H202 is designed for 2 inch wide springs and 3,500 to 8,000 pound axles. I have attached a link to all of our suspension kits for tandem axle trailers with slipper springs for you. We offer kits for springs...

  • Parts Needed To Switch From Double Eye Leaf Springs To 2" Wide Slipper Springs
    Since you are switching to 2" wide Slipper Springs # SP-160275 you will need an entire hanger kit like the Tandem-Axle Trailer Hanger Kit # AP202-H202. As your trailer had double eye springs the hangers are only 1-3/4" wide. These slipper springs used with the hanger kit will need the hangers placed 29-3/4" on center and will place the axles 34-1/2" on center. The 10-1/8" equalizers are the shortest we carry for 2" wide slipper springs.

I also included a helpful article on slipper spring trailer suspensions that may be a helpful reference.

  • Do Suspension Hangers Need to Welded on Or Can They be Bolted On
    You will want to weld the hangers of the Trailer Hanger Kit # AP202-H238. The holes you see are not designed to have bolts run through them. If you did run bolts they would most likely interfere with the spring and how it would sit on the hanger. I would recommend you have a qualified welder do this for you. They would easily be able to move them again if needed.

  • How to Determine Hanger Spacing on a Tandem Axle Trailer with 6K Axles and Slipper Spring Suspension
    The hanger spacing is going to depend on a few things including the spring measurements and the equalizers being used. But if you were using spring # SP-160275 the distance between the hangers would be around 29-3/4 inches. However this is using hanger kit # AP202-H202 with 10-1/8 inch equalizers. If you were using kit # AP216-H202 the hanger spacing guideline would be 31-1/2 inches because the equalizers are longer. So you can see that it changes depending on the components being used. Also,...

  • Hangers Needed For Slipper Springs
    First, you will want to make sure you choose hangers that are designed for slipper springs. The width of the hanger should match the width of the leaf spring. You could use the existing bolts, but hangers use different diameter bolts. It will be important to make sure the bolts you plan on using will fit in the hangers and springs. In addition to the 4 shackle bolts, you will also need 2 equalizer bolts and at least 4 spring keeper bolts. Using a kit is the easiest way to make sure...

  • Spring Spring Hanger Spacing for Spring e46SR
    The B dimension on a slipper spring is the distance that should be between the hanger and the mounting point on a slipper spring equalizer. For example the part # e46SR that you referenced should have a distance of 24-7/8 inches between the first hanger and the equalizer mounting point. Since equalizers can have different lengths there isn't a standard dimension with this spring. Let's use hanger kit part # AP202-H238 as an example. The first hanger of the hanger kit part # AP202-H238...

  • Spring Hanger Spacing Dimensions for a Tandem Axle Slipper Spring Suspension on a 14,0000 lb Trailer
    The hanger spacing for a tandem axle trailer suspension setup can be determined, but you need to take into account the axle spacing needed for the overall diameter of your wheel and tire combination and the springs you will be using. Lets say that you plan on using 4 of the 5-Leaf Slipper Springs, # e74SR, for 7,000-lb Trailer Axles, and that your wheel and tire combinations are the Karrier ST235/85R16 Wheel and Tire, # AM32764. The AM32764 wheel and tires overall diameter is 31.61 inches,...

  • Trailer Hitch and Wiring for a 2016 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport
    For your 2016 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport the most popular hitch option is # C13152. This is a Class III hitch with a 2 inch receiver rated for 6,000 pounds gross trailer weight. I have included a link to a video that shows an example installation for you. For a trailer wiring harness you can use # 118571 to add a 4-Way flat connector at the back of your Santa Fe. I also recommend etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one...

  • Distance Between Hangers When Installing Slipper Springs
    The B dimension on a slipper spring is the distance that should be between the hanger and the mounting point on a slipper spring equalizer. For example the part # e39SR that you referenced should have a distance of 24-7/8 inches between the first hanger and the equalizer mounting point. Since equalizers can have different lengths there isn't a standard dimension with this spring. Let's use hanger kit part # AP202-H238 as an example.
