Helpful Expert Reply:
The Dexter E-Z Flex Heavy Duty Rubber Suspension System # K71-652-00 referenced in your question can be used on axles that are rated up to 6,000 pounds, so you are good to go as far as the capacity of your 5,200 pound axle. To ensure the equalizers will work well with the trailer's suspension you will still want to take a measurement on one of your existing equalizers along with your axle spacing.
If your current equalizers are between 5-1/4 and 6-1/4 inches long (from center of eye to center of eye) and your tandem axles have a 33 inch spacing on center, the equalizers included with this kit will work perfectly.
These equalizers will certainly create a smoother ride when towing as their rubber cores will isolate and absorb road shock. I have attached an installation video that you can also check out.

I have 5200 lbs axels, and my equalizers measured 5-5/8 center to center of the eyes, my trailer axles are 33-1/2 between them center to center not 33" will the K71-652 kit work on my tandem wheel cargo trailer. Thanks James T.
