Can Dexter EZ Flex Kit Replace Equalizers with Longer Shackles
Published 06/13/2022 >
Question:
I had previously asked a question about about my shackle straps being almost 4 inches or so. Can I still use the shorter ones and will this raise my trailer or should I not use this. Thank you

You can use the Dexter E-Z Flex Suspension Kit # K71-653-00 in place of what you have now but the shorter shackles will change the height of your trailer as it currently sits. Your trailer will sit higher by about 1 inches.
