It sounds like you need the Suspension Kit for Tandem-Axle Trailers part # e99ZR which contains 7-3/4" long equalizers, 9/16" bolts, and 3-1/8" long shackle straps. The kit is designed for 1-3/4" wide leaf springs. I would be willing to bet you have 9/16" bolts instead of 1/2" which are very uncommon. Furthermore, shackle straps are not measured end to end but rather from the center of each hole.

If you do indeed have 1/2" bolts and 4" long shackle straps (hole to hole) we would not have a compatible kit.
