Question:
I have a 2013 fox mountain 235RLS. I would like to upgrade the suspension to wet shackles and replace the equalizer. The tag on the axle states: B21-5657, serial T52. The hub tag shows: 14, AlKo 8460, USFW1. Shackles are 2.25 What do you recommend?

Hey Mike! The best option for replacement/upgraded equalizers is the one that matches your current dimensions. More specifically, the distance from the left to right bolt holes on center. Dexter equalizers are pretty common, so their E-Z Flex kits are often a match between the two available sizes. I have the E-Z flex on my trailer and it works really well.
The Dexter E-Z Flex Suspension Kit # K71-652-00 has 5-3/4" spacing and the # K71-653-00 has 7-3/4" spacing. Both come with wet bolts, bushings, and heavy duty 2-1/4" shackle straps. If you have a different measurement let me know in the comments below and I'll help you find the best fit.
Where are you headed with your Fox Mountain once you upgrade the suspension?
