Question:
Hi, Im struggling to find replacement parts for a tandem axle enclosed utility trailer. I understand exactly what parts I want but Im just not getting the dimensions to line up exactly. Below is the closest Ive found. Maybe close enough..? Are you able to shed any light? I can share some pictures. Thank you K71-359-00 Dexter Heavy-Duty Suspension Kit for Tandem-Axle Trailers - 1-3/4 Wide Double Eye Springs Dimensions that DO match: - Axle spacing: 33 measured hub cap-to-hub cap - Leaf spring width: 1-3/4 - Shackle link: 2-1/4 measured bolt-to-bolt - Equalizer outer shackle bolt holes: 5-3/4 - Shack link assembly bolts: 3-1/4 3-3/8 - close enough.. I find that all the bolts measure the same at 3-1/4. Thats the entire overall bolt length not including grease zerks because the trailer currently has stock dry bolt parts. Dimensions that DONT match: - Wet shoulder bolts: 3-1/4 2-7/8 - Shoulder bolts: 3-1/4 2-7/8 - Equalizer height of side bolt to hanger bolt: 1-1/2 2

Hey Aaron, thanks for all of the measurements. The Curved Equalizer for 1-3/4" Wide Double-Eye Springs item # TREQ104 is the closest option measurement wise to your current equalizer. It's 5-3/4" wide from the bolt holes and 2" tall from the center line to the top bolt hole. The 1/2" in height difference is not going to affect anything.
The MORryde Suspension Upgrade Kit for Tandem Axle Trailers item # MR46ZR is what I recommend using for suspension bolts. It's got 2-1/4" long shackle straps. The shoulder bolts are 9/16" diameter and have a 3-3/8" usable length. The wet bolts are 9/16" diameter and have a 2-15/16" usable length. This measurement is taken from the part of the bolt below the bolt head to the threads.
The suspension bolts included with the item # MR46ZR are a standard size. They're designed to fit spring hangers sized for 1-3/4" leaf springs. This kit has 1/2" thick steel shackle, durable bronze bushings, and greaseable wet bolts that make routine maintenance easy and convenient.
Who manufactured your trailer and what specific model is it?

American Hauler, 1520 Mishawaka Street, Elkhart, IN 46514 Night Hawk, NH716TA2 GVWR: 7000 LB 12/8/2016 Some of the shackle bolt holes are ovaled so these are far overdue. I didn't see any cracks or anything obviously wrong with the leaf springs. However, maybe you can recommend those too just in case? Thanks greatly!
