Hello Leonard.

Since you are going with a slightly bigger equalizer, the Equa-Flex Cushioned Equalizers - Double Eye Springs - Tandem Axle - 6K to 8K, part # LC145546, you will go with a smaller shackle strap. The MORryde Suspension Upgrade Kit for Tandem Axle Trailers w Correct Track - 2-1/4" Shackle Straps, part # MR58ZR, is my recommendation. This change will minimally affect the height of your toy hauler, if they affect it at all.
