Question:
The rubber part on my ez flex is deteriorating. Is it possible to just replace that part? The number on the metal is 13-143. It is on a 2008 Dutchman Komfort Trailblazer 5th wheel dual axle. Thanks for your help!

Hey Jerry thanks for the picture! I am sorry but you can not just get that replacement rubber spring. You'll need to replace the entire equalizer with the item # K71-655-00. This is identical in size to your current 13-143 equalizer so it will be an exact replacement.
I'm guessing your rides gotten awful uncomfortable recently. I recommend replacing your wet bolts and shackles as well since you're going to have to take them off anyways to replace the equalizers. You will need to measure the shackles on your Dutchman to confirm the correct ones. If you have 2-1/4" long shackles you will want the MORryde Suspension Upgrade Kit item # MR46ZR. For 3-1/8" long shackle straps item # MR76ZR.
If you have any additional questions go ahead and throw them into the comment box below and I'll be happy to help you.
