Will MORryde Suspension Upgrade Kit for Tandem Axle Trailers Work with My BAL Frame Welded Hangers?

Updated 05/19/2025 | Published 05/14/2025

Question:

My 2024 Jayco JayFeather 21MBH has a BAL frame and the front and rear connections of the leaf springs are hangers welded to the frame. Will the wet bolt kit still work?

Hello Paul,

Yes, the MORryde Suspension Upgrade Kit for Tandem Axle Trailers - 3-1/8" Long Shackle Straps # MR76ZR will work on your 2024 Jayco JayFeather 21MBH with welded on hangers.

This kit will work great just as long as the shackle straps you are replacing are 3 1/8" from center yet to center eye. Is that what your measure?

I’m not concerned about the equalizer as much as the external ends of the leaf springs attached to fixed welded shackles.
