Hi Paul, you’re definitely on the right track here, and I can help you narrow this down with confidence. With your tandem 3,500 lb Dexter axles and 33 inch spacing, both the Dexter EZ Flex part #K71-652-00 and the Lippert Road Armor part #LC53CK are…
You can use leaf springs that are rated higher than the axle without any issues as long as they measure the correct measurement for your trailer. For example the 6-leaf double eye spring for 7,000 lb axles part #e64SR measures 24-7/8" eye to…
Hi Chas, The Lippert Road Armor Shock Absorbing Equalizer part #LC53CK may work for your trailer, but that will depend on what equalizer is currently on your trailer. In order to determine what equalizers would be a fit for your trailer, we'll…
I would love to help you upgrade the suspension on your Twilight 2800 travel trailer. The MORryde Rubber Equalizers for Tandem Axle Trailers #MR87ZR that you referenced are a great solution but we do need to double check a few things. First is that…
Hey Ian, great to hear from you again! The differences between the MORryde CRE3000 #MR87ZR and AllTrek 4000 #MR89DR that fit a 33" wheelbase is the height between the hanger and equalizer bolts, and the amount of travel the suspension style will…
Thank you for providing the specs for the suspension components that you already have. Correct hanger spacing really depends on the components being used such as springs, hangers and equalizers. Most of the hanger spacing dimensions that we have are…
Yes, axle spread and wheel base by definition are the same measurements. You will measure from the center of one axle to the center of the 2nd axle to determine what you axle spread is. This may be difficult as some wheels and covers will make this…
Hey Eric. Axle spacing isn't the best way to determine what replacement equalizers you need. The most accurate way to find a replacement is to match up a replacing equalizer as close as possible to the dimensions of the one currently on your…
Hello Lanny, thanks for reaching out. The CRE 3000 is already a pretty good suspension system, but if you want to upgrade, the first thing that comes to mind are the AllTrek 4000 equalizers. They have more rubber than the CRE 3000, 40% more, so you…
The determine the correct replacement leaf spring on your 2021 Coachmen 259FKDS you'll need to lift your trailer frame so the spring is hanging freely and then measure from center-eye to center-eye, then for the equalizer you need to measure…
Hey, Lance. The direction the springs are in doesn't matter. They can be to the front or to the rear of the axle and will perform the same either way. What kind of trailer are you working on?
Easy place to shop. Fast delivery and great products. Very happy with my purchase.

Trailer Suspension Parts for Double Eye Springs with RV Ride Control
Tuning ride quality is easier with rv ride control parts matched to double eye springs. Use them to adjust axle alignment to square the frame and add lift for clearance or leveling. Options cover single or dual axle installs; for dual axle work, plan for careful setup, proper supports, and the right tools for alignment.
Yes, brackets can offset one or both ends to square the axle with the frame. Each leaf spring hanger needs 2 brackets and 2 drilled plates; some single-axle kits may only cover one leaf spring. Bolts are longer than standard due to added bracket width, and wet bolts are not included. Align reinforcement plates before inserting bolts to help prevent thread damage.
Yes, an option installs with no drilling and works on any double-eye leaf spring setup. It raises the trailer by 1-1/4", or you can get two kits and do 2-1/4" of lift. Confirm you have double-eye springs and decide how much lift you need. If your axle or spring layout is unique, check clearances before committing.
You can raise the trailer by 1-1/4", or use two kits for 2-1/4" of lift. Verify your setup uses double-eye springs first. Measure tire-to-fender and jack height to be sure the added height works for your RV. If you're also correcting alignment, plan bracket positions before final torque.
Expect a careful, time-intensive install. Use appropriate tall supports and jack tools for axle and frame. Predrill for self-tap screws with sharp bits. Remove the spring attachment at the center equalizer for alignment, and take both tires off on the second axle side to move the axle enough. Have a tap and die set to chase equalizer spring screw threads if needed.
