For a 33" wheelbase I recommend the MORryde Rubber Equalizers for Tandem Axle Trailers # MR87ZR. This is slightly smaller than your current equalizer, but based on your picture you could definitely make up the gap and slide the straps back a bit from the center of the equalizer.
As for the shackle strap kit, you can use the MORryde Suspension Upgrade Kit for Tandem Axle Trailers - 2-1/4" Long Shackle Straps # MR46ZR.
I've installed both of these and can tell you that installation can be very messy and somewhat of a hassle. You'll definitely want to wear eye and ear protection when working under the trailer, as well as some gloves and clothes you don't mind getting dirty. Grab a couple of bottle or floor jacks that you can easily adjust for supporting the axles and moving them as needed to get each part installed.
You'll also want to grease your bolts after installation, which you can do with some grease # L11390 and a grease gun # L30480. I've attached some installation videos below to help walk you through the process.
