The distance between the horizontal mounting holes on the Lippert Road Armor Equalizers part # LC696740 is 6 inches. You'd want to measure the distance on the equalizers you currently have as we don't have that figure and you'd be able to compare and know. If the dimension you get is right at 6 inches you'd be good. If not, email me back what you find and I'll give you the best option you'd have.

To upgrade your trailer suspension to the Never Fail setup that is self lubricating so you'd never have to grease any components you'd want the part # LC281285. This comes with the bolts, nuts, thicker shackles, and self-lubricating bushings.

How much does the RoadArmor either raise or lower your trailer when replacing a EQ-104. I have read all the Q/A and even called Lippert. They gave me two different answer's. I currently have a EQ-104 on my tandem axle trailer. I read the spread is 6" on the RoadArmor vs 5 3/4" on the EQ-104. The EQ-104 center line height is 2". What is the center line height of the RoadArmor, 3 1/4" or 31/8" I have read both on your Q/A. Based on that what length shackles are needed to keep the trailer at the same appx. height. I want a wet kit with thick shackles. Lippert gave me a part # for a AP wet kit 862878. Was told the shackle length was 3.130. I cant verify that or are they thick shackles. Hopefully you can help me. I currently have the following on my trailer. EQ-104 2 1/4" shackles 29 1/2" Spring eye to eye 33 1/2"

@WaltD - Do you have a Winnebago 2455BHS? I do and those numbers seem to match mine. I am also looking to replace the EQ-104 with the Road Armor Code: LC696740 plus add the Code: RM-2450 Would you mind sharing the parts used if you replaced and / or let me know how you liked and worked for you? Thanks!
