Question:

I have 7k axels with Dexter 13-104 equalizer. 5.7inch width and 2. Is there a direct replacement for the Dexter that has a rubber cushion? Will the MR87ZR work even though it has 6.5: hole spacing and a lower ?

Expert Reply:

Hey Roger, the MORryde part # MR87ZR could work for you but you would need to go with slightly shorter leaf springs at same time to compensate for the longer equalizer. Instead what would work best would be the # LC279687 which matches the dimensions much closer. How is the ride quality of the trailer currently?

This is for 6,000 lb. I have 7,000 axels.

@RogerT Sorry about that. Closest option that matches capacity needed would be the part # LC53CK.

@JamesonC how do the measurements compare to Dexter 13-104? If it is a bigger drop and wider how will it effect the trailer?

@Roger It's half an inch wider and 1 inch taller basically. It would raise the suspension about 1/2 an inch due to height difference with the part # LC53CK but the width essentially wouldn't change anything.
