Hi James, and thanks for all that detailed info, it's appreciated. As for the best upgrade for your Coachmen Express with the Dexter 13-142 equalizers, that's definitely going to be the MORryde CRE3000, with the correct part number being the following:
- MORryde 14-3/4" Shock Absorbing Equalizers # MR34AR
The # MR34AR is the correct length to replace your equalizer and 42" axle spread, but aside from that will give your Coachmen the best overall ride. The rubber equalizers do a better job than other equalizers of absorbing road shock, and the 3" of travel they give you is something you're going to notice right away. Our customers really like these as well, as they're the highest-rated tandem-axle equalizer upgrade we offer.
Then for the wet bolt kit and shackle straps, since these equalizers are a bit taller than the 13-142 I recommend going with the 2-1/4" straps. These are a bit shorter than your 3-1/4" straps to keep the ride height the same. For that you'll need the MORryde Suspension Upgrade Kit for Tandem Axle Trailers # MR46ZR.
