While I am unable to determine the exact size hangers your 2009 Keystone Raptor 3812TS has, it does appear the Triple-Axle Trailer Hanger Kit # APTT5 has all the parts you will need. This kit includes 3-1/4" hangers measured from the frame to the center of the mounting hole. If you have a different height hanger please let me know and I will find you the correct height hangers. And if you would like to upgrade to a cushioned equalizer like the Dexter E-Z Flex # K71-657-00 I can then create a list of all the different parts you will need to customize your suspension.

The only 7,000 lb double-eye leaf spring we have is the #e64SR you looked at. This may work for you depending on how you measured. This leaf spring measure 24-7/8" from center of spring eye to center of spring eye. However, I'm not sure if…

The EZ FLex kits like the #K71-657-00 are designed to work with standard trailer hanger kits. If you need hangers you could use the part #28-5 for all of the hangers that your trailer needs and you'd be set as the EZ Flex kit comes with…

Yes the hanger kit part #APTT5 would work well with the Dexter EZ Flex part #K71-657-00 that you mentioned as well. The 3-1/4 inch height of all of the equalizers would work great without any issue.

Answer 9

With 8 inches center to center hole that's a good start as these will flex between 7-1/4 to 8-1/4 measurements however you also may make sure you have the 35" center axle to center axle spacing and have 9/16" bolt holes. The #K71-657-00…

You can use leaf springs that are rated higher than the axle without any issues as long as they measure the correct measurement for your trailer. For example the 6-leaf double eye spring for 7,000 lb axles part #e64SR measures 24-7/8" eye to…

We have lift kits for trailer that easily add 2 inches to the height of the trailer. For that you'd want the part #RR23QX and you'd be set. I attached a picture that shows how it installs to give you an idea. This would be the easiest…
