Question:
MY son measured the lenght to be 8 inch in lenght, could it have possibly been 73/4 inch, and if so would, would this 73/4 inch fit on an 8 inch lenght? Im desperate to get the right size for my trailer. BlueRidge, made by ForestRiver, and its a 2011 fifth wheel, tandem axle. Would you happen to know the right size? Its a 35foot three slide outs. Thanks

When replacing equalizers, the length of the new equalizers needs to match that of the existing equalizers as closely as possible. The length of an equalizer is measured from center of bolt hole to center of bolt hole.
Another measurement that needs to be taken into consideration is the height of the equalizer. The height of the new equilizer can be slightly different than the current height, but it should still try to be close to the existing equalizers' height.
I have attached a diagram showing where to take these measurements for you.
We do carry 2 equalizers that are 8 inches long, # TREQR83 and # TREQR89, but these are both straight equalizers.
If you would like to get back to me with the length and height measurements of your existing equalizers I will be happy to recommend replacements.
