Question:

Hello peeps! Happy New Year! I have a tandem axel currently with the Dexter 13-122 equalizer on a 35 inch spacing and axel weight of 4400lbs each and a coach weight of 9680lbs. Which of the Road Armor products would work on our coach? I see the standard RA product is only 6 inches where it appears mine is 7.5 inches or so. Also, I would want to upgrade to the wetbolt and heavy duty hardware. One more thing, I believe you guys have a TT shock bolt on system also, what would be the recommendation for a heavy trailer like this since it also looks like the RA lifts a trailer a tad bit. We have the Auto leveling system which can lift a tire off the ground at times depending on ground terrain.

The Road Armor Shock Absorbing Equalizer Kit - Tandem Axle - Qty 2 # LC696740 is the only Road Armor kit we carry providing 6" total travel capability as you noted. The 7-1/2" Equa-Flex Cushioned Equalizers # LC279688 would be your most direct replacement for the Dexter 13-122 equalizer however.

The Dexter Heavy Duty Suspension Upgrade Kit for Single Axle Trailers - Double Eye Springs # K71-358-00 would be great solution providing the wet bolt and hardware for your upgrade.

The Lippert Components Bolt-On Shock Kit w/ Heavy Duty Gas Shocks - 5,200-lb to 7,000-lb (3") Axle # LC281281 is my recommendation then to round out the package.
