The Dexter Heavy Duty Suspension Upgrade Kit part # K71-358-00 is my recommendation to upgrade the suspension on a 5th wheel trailer. The kit comes with wet bolts for easy maintenance, thicker shackle straps which are more durable, and upgraded bushings which last much longer than the standard nylon options. The kit comes with everything needed for one axle so you will need multiple.
