Question:
I want to upgrade my 2020 Cougar Fifth wheel that has 2 Dexter 5200 Lbs axles on it, with a heavy duty shackle kit with brass bushings and wet bolts. It has the road armor center piece if that makes a difference. Which part number do I need? I see there are many.

Hey Colin, thanks for reaching out. We can definitely get you a wet bolt/HD shackle kit for your 2020 Cougar 5th wheel. One of the MORryde suspension upgrade kits is what I recommend. I'll just need you to confirm the hole-to-hole length of the current shackles. They should be either 2-1/4" long or 3-1/8" long so please double check that and choose from the following:
- MORryde Suspension Upgrade Kit for Tandem Axle Trailers - 2-1/4" Long Shackle Straps # MR46ZR
- MORryde Suspension Upgrade Kit for Tandem Axle Trailers - 3-1/8" Long Shackle Straps # MR76ZR
These come with 1/2" thick HD shackles, wet bolts and bronze bushings. They will work just fine with cushioned equalizers like your Road Armor. Just make sure the bushings stay greased and this'll be a super solid setup that will hold up great for years to come.

Awesome !!! Thank you. One more question, I would like to three of the MORryde X factor cross members for the same trailer. One for each shackle front and back, and also the center between the axles. Can you please steer me in the right direction, just so I'm sure I get the correct ones. Thanks,
