Recommended 2-1/4" Shackle Straps
Updated 01/12/2026 | Published 09/02/2024
Question:
My trailer shackle straps measure 1 1/2 inches center to center of eyelets I dont see an exact replacement size. I ordered the 2 1/4 size. Will they still work? It looks like there is plenty of room in between the equalizer for the smaller shackle straps.

Expert Reply:
You want to get as close to the same size as possible when replacing your shackle straps. We don't have anything closer to a 1-1/2" center hole spacing than the 2-1/4" MORryde Suspension Upgrade Kit item # MR58ZR you ordered. The only concern I would have is additional play and more movement in your suspension or that's a typo because I have never heard of shackle straps that small.

Hey, how did things turn out with the MORryde suspension kit and the 2-1/4 inch shackle straps? Did the extra length cause any noticeable movement in your trailer’s suspension? Your update could make it easier for others working with smaller shackle straps.
