Dexter Heavy-Duty Suspension Kit for Tandem-Axle Trailers - 1-3/4" Wide Double-Eye Springs
I really wanted to give this kit a 5 star review, however it fell short in more than one way. The parts are very nice and heavy duty looking and went together purrty good. However, when I went to grease the shackles none took grease it just came out around the fitting, so I changed the end on my grease gun thinking it was just worn out, still same problem. I had to hold the fitting on the zirk as hard as I could and finally got them to take grease, one still hasn't taken grease and not sure what I'm going to do. I left all hardware loose to this point to make sure there was no un nessesary pressure on anything hoping it would take grease easy. It's like the heads of the zirks are a size to small. After greasing everything the best I could I tightened everything up, during this process I had 2 nuts that the threads pulled out of... Just as they got tight they started to loosen up, I was using a standard length 1\2 drive craftsman ratchet, and I'm not hulk. I ended up having a few nuts and washers that worked but still this shouldn't have happened. Makes me wonder about the rest of the metals strength. Looks heavy duty but I'm starting to wonder about longevity.
After receiving my shipment yesterday, I was concerned that parts may have been missing due to the shape of the shipping box and the lack of packing material. During the installation of the shackles, the third shackle nuts/bolts stripped out when tightened by hand. The shackle had to be cut off since the nuts could not be properly tightened. I have emailed etrailer with this issue and hopefully we can resolve the issue quickly.

Shackle Bolt with Locknut for Double-Eye Springs - 3" Long
Your shipping time went wrong, but Kelsey’s way of handling My order with problems, made my respect level go up. Also, on your website, you have a picture of equalizers that look American made, with your name on it. What I received was stamped China and looks cheap…..
These are the exact bolts used by the manufacturer of my trailer. I had a spring break after 10yrs use, so am replacing the springs and all the bolts at the same time, thank you to etrailer for the springs (ordered earlier) and now the bolts/nuts, all arrived quickly and accurately, you are my first choice for all trailer parts for my 7 trailers, thank you and keep up the good work!

Replacement U-Bolt w/Nuts for 7,500-lb, Round Trailer Axles - 9/16" Diameter
I had a hard time finding a u-bolt that would fit my vintage trailer. These were the perfect width but too long. I cut them to size and they fit perfectly. These were the only u-bolts I could find that would fit my leaf springs. They are good quality and have held up nicely. I just wish they made this size shorter.
Loved the updates on my order!

Suspension Kit for Tandem-Axle Trailers - 1-3/4" Wide Double Eye Springs - 2-1/4" Links
Got the kit today. Some of the nuts were oval and would not fit on the bolt of course. Now I have to go to box store and find nuts that fit! Not very good quality control!!
After all of the bad weather I was able to finish installing my new suspension system on my 1992 Lance Fifth Wheel. The task was much easier than I had anticipated. The instructional video you provide access to were a big help. Other than having to grind off a nut or two I had no difficulties (See attached photos). The 'list' that had developed on the fifth wheel is now resolved, and towing has already proven to be better.

Spring Seat for Typical 2,000-lb, Round Trailer Axles with 1-3/4" Diameter - Qty 1
These brackets used in conjunction with the new u-bolt kit made switching my trailer axle from being above spring to under spring. This has raised the trailer about 3 inches in height from stock. I have a new set of wheel and tires coming and this should take care of the slight slope as seen in the picture. After installing everything, I took the trailer for a test drive and it tracked nicely and behaved very good on the road. No problems.

U-Bolt Kit for Mounting 2,000-lb, Round Trailer Axles - 4-1/4" Long U-Bolts
after one year axle is very very rusty as well as the hangers and hubs, not sure why but not happy with the price vs quality of product
I purchased this kit for the standard 5' x 8' 2,000 lb. trailer from Lowes. I did an axle flip and added larger tires. This is the perfect kit for this trailer. It went on easy, and the bolts were slightly longer. Also the bolts in this kit were fine thread instead of course thread. Overall an improvemet over the factory hardware and I had no issues. Shipped in a timely manner and packaged well. I highly recommend this kit if you plan on flipping the axle or need a replacement.

Nylon Bushing - 1/2" Inner Diameter, 7/8" Outer Diameter - 1-3/4" Long
My trailer is very Frankenstein and I had to scramble to find specific/unusual pieces. eTrailer made it easy to find the odd bushings I needed to finish the project. One year later, after regular use, the new suspension is holding up really well.
This is exactly what I needed to replace the nylon bushings in my Trailex trailer, which were damaged when removing rusty bolts. As always, etrailer shipping was super-efficient.
