There is a complete equalizer upgrade kit for your Dexter 13-122 equalizer, which measures 7-3/4" long and 2-7/8" tall but you're right it is not the MORryde. Instead, the correct upgrade kit is also from Dexter, the E-Z Flex:

- Dexter E-Z Flex Suspension Kit - Double-Eye Springs - Tandem Axle - 8,000 lbs # K71-653-00

The E-Z Flex # K71-653-00 has all the upgrades you are looking for - cushioned equalizers, thicker shackle straps, and wet bolts. The shackle straps are 2-1/4" from center hole to center hole. This is going to be a superb overall upgrade for your trailer, giving it an improved ride while also being easier to maintain.
