Replacement EZ Flex Equalizer Kit for Tandem Axle Trailer with 7k Axles

Question:

Hello, See I have a broken shackles attached to my equalizer on my Dexter Axle. Double 7000 lb axles. Attached are some pictures. As you can see Dexter Part # 13-144. From what I can see I need to get 2 equalizers and several Shackles? Most likely various other bolts as well. 3inch bolts. 2 1/4? shackles. Do the plastic and brass bushings come separate? Do you have shackles that are heavier duty that the ones I am taking off? Thanks for you help!

Based on the current condition of your Dexter EZ Flex kit it's going to be the best solution to replace the entire kit with the part # K71-653-00. This comes with the two new equalizers you need, all new shackle straps, new bolts, nuts, and bushings. This kit includes shackles that are much thicker than what you have now which will be much more heavy duty and last a lot longer. Since the shackles are what wore out the rest of your system too this will give the entire setup a much more heavy duty quality overall.
