Availability of Lippert Road Armor Cushioned Equalizer for Spread Tandem Axles

Question

Question:

I am trying to find a version of this great product to fit my 2020 Passport GT 2500RK that has a spread axle setup. It is 14 5/8inch between the bolt holes for the shackles not 6inch like this std. one. Is that still available? I cannot seem to find it... My friend saw it in Lippert's catalog and passed it to me. Im attaching a pic of my stock pivoting part...

My contact at Lippert tells me that the Road Armor cushioned equalizers for spread tandem axles aren't available, nor could they tell me when they would be.

However, I do have good news for you. Lippert offers a different cushioned equalizer that would be the perfect replacement for you. I'd recommend the Lippert Equa-Flex, part # LC314336. The Equa-Flex would dramatically reduce chucking (that annoying back and forth movement) and reduce the amount of road shock transferred to your travel trailer. The # LC314336 Equa-Flex has the same shackle bolt spacing as your existing equalizer, 14-5/8 inches, so it's going to be a perfect fit that wouldn't change your suspension geometry.

The Road Armor Shock Absorbing Equalizer Kit part #LC696740 are taller than most other standard equalizers so you'll likely need the longer 3-1/8" shackle straps when using them, the Lippert AP Kit part #LC52SV is a go-to for this as it has…

It is okay to mix and match the Lippert Road Armor #LC696740 with the MORryde 2-1/4" #MR46ZR or 3-1/8" #MR76ZR shackle straps. The MORryde shackles are superior in construction to the Lippert kits we currently carry. MORryde did just…

The Triangular Equalizer #TREQ310 is a replacement for the Dexter 13-10 on your 2022 Nash 23D travel trailer. You should consider upgrading to the MORryde ALLTREK 4000 Shock Absorbing Equalizers #MR89DR. These will pair with either the 2-1/4"…

Answer 8

Hi Mike, With the height of your equalizer increasing an inch you might need to switch to 3-1/8" shackle straps #TRSL313 to keep the leaf spring stack level but this isn't an exact science so your leaf springs could end up sitting too close…

I understand your worry Tom, and I have a couple recommendations. First is the MORryde ALLTREK 4000 Shock Absorbing Equalizers #MR89DR which has a height of 4-1/2" for the mounting bolts. This is also 6-1/2" in width like the shorter…

Answer 12

The Lippert Road Armor part #LC696740 that you referenced is most likely the correct kit you'd need but you'd want to measure the distance between the holes of your current equalizers. If they are 6 inches than this kit would fit. This is a…
