Best Chevrolet C/K Series Pickup Trailer Suspension Parts

New suspension parts made a real difference in trailer handling. Original shackles holes were severely elongated, spring eye mounts were also needing attention. Thank you, etrailer for the needed parts and support.

These parts were a perfect replacement for my old rusted u bolts. I would recommend buying flat and lock washers to place on the u bolts under the nuts due to the holes in the plates being big enough that the nuts get a little torn up when you tighten them, also the nuts it came with aren't lock nuts.

Direct replacement. Goods quality

I Waited Too Long to Replace Trailer Bushings -The past few years I would hear “clunking” sound (different than “squeaking”) from my boat trailer, but I got concerned this year as it seemed louder. -With the boat off the trailer I could see wear around the shackle bolts -I called eTrailer to order the parts and was helped by Kayla to order the bushings/shackles/bolts/nuts for my tandem axle trailer -After trying to press the bushings in I realized I measured poorly and had two different bushings, the equalizer had 1 size and springs had a different size. -Amanda helped me get the second set of bushings (delaying the project for 5 days…but my fault) Right or wrong: -I applied anti-seize compound to the shackle bolt threads -I pre-loaded the “wet” bolts with marine grease to fill them up before inserting them into the suspension, adding grease when everything is installed -I tightened the bolts very securely and they backed off the nut ½ turn to allow for suspension movement Lessons learned: -Look for different size bushings in equalizer/springs and measure correctly ID & OD precisely -It takes some time to do this job (about 4 working hours per side) so try to do it when you are not under pressure -If you want the re-paint some parts, allow for primer and top coat drying time, i.e. overnight which adds time to the project, but it comes out better -Have a big breaker bar & extension/enforcer to help get the nuts on & off. My ½” impact gun could not tighten them all the way -A large “C” clamp will press the bushing in smooth & straight instead of using a hammer & block of wood “caveman style” -Annually inspect your trailer suspension for signs of wear and listen for increased noise Thanks again to Kayla, Amanda and eTrailer for help with this project.

Bought many parts, wheels & tires for a small horse trailer restoration project. Received everything purchased quick and all parts were perfect. Made the job go as smoothly as a 25 year old trailer restoration can go.

Everything arrived in excellent condition and it is exactly what I ordered. Your web site with its filters makes it very easy to find the right items even for our very old trailer.

I bought these as spare hardware to keep with my trailer. They appear to be manufactured well and will be a direct replacement if I have a failure while transporting.

Delivery was faster than expected and well package in the follow up was great. Thank you, E trailer same great service as before your eternal customer.

Some of the pieces in this kit are of questionable quality. In particular, the threaded center of the nuts are not round, and will not thread on to the bolt. The kit comes with 14 of these nuts, and 7 of them are unusable. This is unforgivable, considering the issue has been reported at least since 2023, as there is a review and accompanying photo on 05/16/2023. So if you buy this kit assuming the problem has been corrected, you will be mistaken. Other than this issue, the kit seems to be acceptable.

great construction, but the screw to connect to the trailer was not long enough.

All parts fit my rebuild of new springs for my 1999 Bear trailer that my G3 Bassboat sat on for 26 yrs(used a lot for fishing on weekends)

Direct replacement, good quality

The parts in the U-Bolt kits (I had two of them) fit perfectly, and I am very pleased with everything about them.

The ladies at etrailer are awesome! Unbolts work on the new leaf springs , they know there products. I will buy from them for all my projects! Thank you

These were a direct replacement for my 25 year old dump trailer. I removed the plastic bushings and used brass.

The bolt holes are not bored center of the lobes and are not 90 degrees to the stock. The egg shaped equalizers I am replacing have more material remaining on the thin side than the new ones I just received from etrailer. NOT HAPPY Must Resolve This Issue ASAP

Exactly what I needed, such an easy upgrade with new heavier springs and the wet bolt upgrade kit. etrailer techs helped answer some questions to be sure I got exactly what I needed.

Replaced 50 year old u Bolts on my horse trailer. Fit like a glove, no issues with install and everything fit as it should.

Great Experience! When I noticed that the leaf springs on my 44 year old boat trailer had cracked I thought I would never find replacements. I fully expected to have to have something custom built. I was amazed when I found the fantastic diagrams/descriptions dimensions for replacement springs on etrailer.com The phone support person was wonderfully helpful in confirming if items were in stock and ready to ship. The replacement springs arrived on time and everything bolted up perfectly! Thanks for such a great site!

I will be disassembling and do a further visual coming up. But what I did see while on the trip is that it definitely looks as the rollers (gold colored like a grade 5 - 8 bolt, I'm assuming they are hardened) that are in the system to roll on the slipper springs are showing wear.

This product did exactly what we needed it to. Bought a replacement axle from Dexter but it created clearance issues in the wheel wells. After installing this kit we have much more clearance and the trailer rides like a dream.

Outstanding product. I am so grateful the install video was added to the page. I am a hands on individual and struggle reading directions with numerous steps at times and it made it so much easier to install this. The explanation of how the mount has to sit flush with the axle seat once you tighten down the spacers was very helpful during the alignment stage. I still have to weld the brackets to the axle for extra support as recommended but I did notice that I will be gaining roughly 4” of clearance height to my trailer. This will allow me to sit more evenly with my lifted truck and get my trailer in my driveway easier since I have a water drainage built in to the entrance way with a big dip.

Product and service are excellent. You should consider using better shipping containers or using a different shipper. My box showed up with a hole in the bottom and the tape ripped almost gave way. By reading other comments this is not the first time.

Got these parts quickly and was able to rebuild my trailers entire suspension before hauling a car on a 1000 mile weekend road trip. Very glad I found E-trailer.

Excellent, had everything I needed and more for my trailer. Everything fit well!

I bought a axle, springs wheels, hubs etc. to build a utility trailer, I inadvertently had ordered incompatible hubs for the selected axle the person filling the order noticed this and contacted customer service to alert them of the issue who then called me to correct the problem. This saved me the time and expense of returning the part and delaying the project. great service, attentive, knowledgeable employees and great products. Thanks E trailer.

This is a nice piece of Equipment(part), Heavy Duty, Perfict. A Great Price too. We used these Equalizers on our 12,000 lb Utility Trailer used for hauling 10,000 lb Track Loaders and lots of parts daily. We'll be back.

GREAT EQUALIZER

The Dexter Heavy-Duty Suspension Kit was an Exact Replacement, and a Perfect Fit for my RV Trailer. They were a much more substantial replacement for my factory parts. The bronze bushings, and wet bolts will definitely help my suspension last a long time due to being able to lubricate all of the bushings and pivot points, which will ensure worry free traveling.

I would have given a 5 if the zurk fittings were better quality, one grease (zerk) fitting was damaged and missing the ball, so I had to get one from the hardware store. Put better grease fittings in and there wouldn't be any complaints about not taking grease.

worked great. perfect replacement for my load trail 7 k tandem axel. I paired this up with a new 2 inch bracket and bushings.

Grease fittings are press fit in not threaded grease fitting pulled out on second time greasing it wish it said this in the description I wouldn’t have bought it… junk

Kit worked as intended. Raised my fifth wheel high enough to get proper clearance over bed on new truck 3" Axle tube 2.5" Spring stack gave me 5.5" of additional height. I also added bump stops on top side just in case a spring breaks.

Jaime at ETrailer was extremely helpful and got my order sent up ups ground since I was having issues using a P.O. Box. My parts arrived quickly and fit perfectly. I installed them last week and my trailer looks so much better and won’t be scraping on my driveway anymore!

Looking forward to season opener trip! Not that many miles on TT, and am shocked at condition of original plastic bearings. Image shows worst 3 of the 8 removed. The other 6 I didn't drive out of the triangular pieces. Admittedly, I'm retired and not in a hurry but took a total of 7 hours to install both sides including break for lunch and total clean-up of tools. Not a difficult install if you have basic mechanical skills.

After installing the Dexter easy flex and traveling around 7K mile. We are well pleased with the performance. I would recommend the product.

Arrived well packed and as advertised. I'm going to pull the azle out of the boat trailer and wanted to have this 'on hand' should I break some of my U bolts. I've bought from you before - always been happy, thanks

Awesome product so far, drove 4,581 miles from FL to CO, UT, AZ, NM and back to FL no issues. With Max mobility.

Direct replacement, great quality

Great product , delivered on time
