Hey Mike,
To determine if the MORryde Rubber Equalizers for Tandem Axle Trailers # MR87ZR would be a compatible fit you'll first want to measure the bolt hole spacing on your current equalizers. The # MR87ZR has a 6-1/2" center to center spacing for the shackle strap bolt holes and a 3-1/4" height from the hanger bolt hole down to the center of the shackle strap holes.
Changing the spacing can alter the way the suspension travels and could potentially cause a bind so we always recommend replacing components with similar sizing. For example, if you went with a shorter equalizer then you'd likely need to replace the shackle straps and leaf springs as well to get the spacing right. Take some measurements on your equalizer and let me know what you find and I'll see if there's a compatible option available.
