  • Best Suspension Upgrade for 33" Tandem Axles: Road Armor vs Dexter EZ Flex for Ember 22ETS
    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 going to fit your setup properly and won’t cause issues like clanking, binding, or tire clearance as long as your current dimensions are standard. If your goal is the smoothest ride and keeping things inside your trailer from getting bounced...

  • Recommended Equalizer for a 2018 Coachmen Apex Ultralight
    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 Coachmen Apex. There's two ways to do this. You can look for a part number on one of your equalizers. If you can't find one, you'll just need to take a couple quick measurements. If you look at the diagram below of the Road Armor Equalizers item...

  • Wet Bolt Kit for 2023 Keystone Cougar SGS27 With Road Armor Equalizer and 2-1/4" Shackles
    Hey Roger! Since you have 2-1/4" shackles you need the MORryde Suspension Upgrade Kit for Tandem Axle Trailers # MR46ZR. This comes with wet bolts, bronze bushings, and 2-1/4" long shackle straps to match your measurement. This kit is compatible with your Lippert Road Armor Shock-Absorbing Equalizer Kit # LC53CK. Any big trips coming up with the Cougar?

  • Looking for the Suspension Equalizer Upgrade Kit for a 2023 StarCraft Autumn Ridge FBS
    Thanks for reaching out Chris, I'd be happy to help. The Lippert Road Armor Equalizer Kit # LC53CK includes the two equalizers with the bronze bushings pre-installed. To complete the setup, shakles/wet bolts are in the Dexter Heavy-Duty Suspension Upgrade Kit # 018-026-05 and the MORryde Grade 5 Flange Lock Nuts # MR85DR. If you haven't, before ordering I recommend verifying a couple of measurements on your current suspension: Measure your equalizer from the center of the top mounting...

  • Can Lippert Road Armor Cushioned Equalizer be Used with Correct Track Alignment Tool
    Hey Curtis, yes you can use the Correct track alignment systems with the Lippert Road Armor equalizers like the part # LC53CK that you referenced. Are you running a 2-1/4 inch or 1-1/4 inch lift from the Correct track?

  • Upgraded Equalizers for Tandem Axle Trailer With Dexter 13-122
    Hey Ronnie! You want the upgraded equalizer to match the existing equalizer measurements so you don't throw off the suspension geometry. The Road Armor # LC53CK is only 6" long making it is a little too short for your setup. The MORryde Shock Absorbing Suspension Equalizers # MR27ZR are the better choice here at 8". This is a close match to your 13-122 with the 7-3/4" measurement. Then you can add the MORryde Suspension Upgrade Kit for wet bolts, bronze bushings, and 1/2" shackle straps....

  • How Much Grease Should Be Added To Road Armor Wet Bolts On 2025 Keystone Montana High Country
    Hey John! The wet bolts on your Lippert Road Armor # LC53CK really only need a couple pumps of grease every 6 months. Lippert recommends applying grease until you see fresh grease begin to squeeze out around the bolt and bushing area. Once you see that, you're all set and can stop pumping grease. It looks like you already picked up the LubriMatic LMX # L11390. This will work really well on the wet bolts and keep the suspension on your 5th wheel lubricated and protected from premature wear. Any...

  • Upgraded Equalizer for Comfort and Damage on 2025 East to West Alta 3010KBH
    Hey Alan! The best upgraded equalizer is the one that matches the measurements on your current equalizer. This keeps your suspension geometry the same. The Lippert Road Armor Shock-Absorbing Equalizer Kit # LC53CK you were looking at is a good option if your equalizers measure 6" from the left to the right bolt hole on center. See the attached picture. If you have a different measurement, let me know in the comments below. I also recommend adding the MORryde Suspension Upgrade Kit for...

  • What Equalizer Upgrade Would Be Best for My 2026 Jayco Eagle 28BHU?
    Hi Jose, I'd be happy to assist you in finding an equalizer upgrade for your 2026 Jayco Eagle 28BHU. The Lippert Road Amror Shock Absorping Equalizer part # LC53CK is a good equalizer but doesn't account for as much up and down travel, especially for the price. I recommend using a MORyde CRE 3000 Shock Absorbing Equalizer as they have rubber inserts to absorb and dampen road shock as well as limit back-and-forth chucking. They're also easier to maintain than air bags and are a direct...

  • How Do I Figure Out What Equalizer Upgrade Works For My Trailer?
    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 need to match the width and height of your current equalizer to get you the right size upgrade to work with your suspension. The trailer suspension is built around a specific equalizer size, so the replacement must be the same size. To get you...

  • Recommended MORryde Suspension Upgrade Kit for Tandem Axle Trailers w/ 3-1/8" Long Shackle Straps
    Hey Eric, welcome back. The 3-1/8" Long Shackle Straps MORryde Suspension Upgrade Kit for Tandem Axle Trailers item # MR76ZR are going to be the longest option I have for a replacement wet bolt kit. They are compatible with Road Armour equalizers like item # LC53CK. I do not have any 3-1/2" long shackle straps kits. The MORryde Suspension Upgrade Kit item # MR76ZR is without a doubt the best replacement wet bolt kit on the market. It includes 1/2-inch thick steel shackles, bronze bushings,...
