Video Transcript for etrailer Trailer Suspension 115052 Review

Today we're going to be taking a look at a replacement shackle strap. A shackle strap connects a double aisle leaf spring to a hangar of a single-axle trailer or to an equalizer of a multi-axle trailer. It's going to allow the necessary pivot of the springs to occur for an evenly distributed load between the axles, and also a smooth ride for the trailer. This part number is good for one shackle strap. If we take a measurement, the distance that we have from the center of one hole to the center of the other, that's going to give us the measurement of 2-5/8". Overall length, edge to edge, is around 4".

Overall width from edge to edge is going to give us a measurement of about 1-1/4". The hole diameters, that's going to be 9/16". You can see it's made from a nice durable steel construction. That's going to do it for today's look at the replacement shackle strap.

I was very disappointed when I received the shipment from etrailer and only half the parts were there. When I made the order I was told everything was in stock and would be shipped.



by:

Easy installation holding up well.



by:

Worked perfect.



by:

Order received was missing significant pieces as per my notification to customer service. Looks like all parts, nuts bolts flanges were all packed loose in the box, UPS destroyed the package and reboxed, resulting in missing items. Attached picture is what I received.



by:

Fit perfect with the equalizers I also bought from etrailer.

Great replacement for a car hauling trailer built from a house trailer frame that had badly warn suspension parts. These suspensions worked perfectly.



by:

Good product, worked as expected.



by:

Easy ordering, fast delivery. Great pri ces.



by:

I put them on a double axle goose neck 2-horse straight load that gets used almost 2 days a week this last year. It has made many 100mile trips. I bought it used 8-hrs from home. Bought and installed new tires the next day and jacking it up broke a leaf spring. Put four springs on it using these shackles. Good as new!



by:

The tire blew out on my camper. I changed the tire. I didn’t realize the spring was broke. I ordered springs and shakels and new bolts. It took just over and hour for both sides. Everything I received from etrailer was just as it should be.
Keep up the good job everyone.
Thank you



by:

They are working great.



by:

The spring replacement went well and was easy to complete. It lifted my trailer about 1.5 inches from the top the tire to the fender. It wont rub anymore!!



by:

Correct parts and worked as they should. Replaced springs and hardware on one side of trailer the day i recieved parts.



by:

Reasonably priced replacement part



by:

When ordering, the descriptions plus dimensions helped a lot. Pictures of everything was great! Knew exactly what I was ordering. Delivery was right on time and the parts were good quality. I was in a hurry to do these repairs so we could take our trailer on a trip. It was a pleasure to do business with e-trailer! Thank you!



by:

Package with straps was mangled in transit. The straps were not there. I called Etrailer and hey immediately sent replacements. Great service.



by:

Good fit for a replacement on my utility trailer. Will probably hit them with a can of spray paint as they're bare metal.



by:

Quick delivery. Perfect fit.



by:

A+ Thank you.



by:

Outstanding company to order parts from! All the items where exactly what I needed and whent together great. Minus the old suspension that was completely rusted together haha. Once again great experience all around.

  • Limited Tire Clearance with Stock Tire Size on a 2006 Forest River Cherokee 27Q
    We recommend having a minimum of 3" between the top of the tire and bottom of the fender in order to allow for proper suspension travel. However, based on the photo you sent I believe you need new leaf springs as the ones you have appear to be almost completely flat. This has then compromised your tire clearance. The flattened leaf springs could either be a result of overloading the trailer or just general wear. In order to replace them you would need to know your axle capacity and the...

  • Can I Use 1/2" Longer Shackle Straps for My Trailer Suspension
    If the shackle straps are within a 1/2" of what you normally had, say the 2-5/8" # 115052 to 3-1/8" # TRSL313, you should be okay to install them. Just make sure that all of your shackle straps match though. If you are using the longer straps only for a section of your suspension setup then that will cause issues for your trailer.

  • Replacement Leaf Springs, U-Bolts, Shackle Straps, and Hardware for Three 7,000 Pound Trailer Axles
    When replacing springs always replace them in pairs (2 springs per axle) but if you are going to replace all 6 then that is even better. When measuring a spring you have to do it with the weight off of the spring by either removing the spring or jacking up one side of the trailer and measuring on that side. The reason I bring that up is because the double-eye springs that we have do not have the exact measurements that you have provided. Spring # e64SR is a close option. Eye to eye it...

  • Replacement Leaf Springs and Suspension Parts for 1962 Forester Camper Trailer
    Trailer makers do not maintain specs on items like suspension components but it is not difficult to identify correct replacement suspension parts like leaf springs and shackle straps. It is usually best to remove one of the leaf springs to measure it when it is not under tension. This gives the most accurate eye-to-eye dimension. Also note that a well-worn leaf spring can actually stretch a bit. Leaf springs can easily elongate as much as 1/2-inch, sometimes more, if they are very old...

  • Troubleshooting Trailer Shackle Straps that Flip Upside Down When Travelling
    Is the trailer sitting nose high or low? If the trailer isn't sitting perfectly level that is a typical cause for the shackle straps to flip upside down. Or if they are too short for the application that could cause a problem. I attached a link to a page that shows how to pick out the correct ball mount to allow a trailer to be towed as level as possible plus a link to a page that has all of our shackle straps.

Measurements for replacement 1) Measure current shackle from center of one eye to center of the other eye 2) You can also often determine the shackle length from the type of suspension system you have This section is about half way down the page and is titled Shackle Straps.

  • Picking Out 6-1/8 inch Trailer Suspension Equalizers and Matching Bolts, Bushings, and Straps
    The equalizer you need is part # TREQ356, the bolt you are looking for is part # TRFA73Z916DLNZ, for a bushing you'd want # LC279684, and the closest shackle strap is the # 115052 which has a distance of 2-5/8 inches between bolt hole centers.

  • Replacement Bushing for Leaf Spring with Outer Diameter of 1 inch and Inner Diameter of 9/16 inch
    The closest bushing dimensions we have for your application would be the part # TRBU11561 which has a 9/16 inch inner diameter, 1-3/4 inch in width, and an outer diameter of 1.024 inch.

  • Wet Bolt and Shackle Kit with 2-5/8 inch Shackles for 2018 KZ Durango with Dexter 5,200 lb Axles
    We have replacement shackles that are 2-5/8 inches bolt hole center to bolt hole center with the part # 115052 but we do not sell these in a kit like you asked about. Then for wet bolts that will work with these that come with matching nuts you'd want the part # 126B2. For a tandem axle setup you'd need a quantity of 8 shackles and 14 bolts.

  • Hardware Needed With the Road Armor Equalizer Kit
    When using the Road Armor Shock Absorbing Equalizer Kit # LC696740, for bolts you want ten 9/16" suspension bolts part # ABS34FR and 8 shackle straps per axle. The kit you are talking about which is part # LC64FR has the correct parts from Lippert, but not enough of them. The correct shackle straps also depends on your trailer. If you let me know what length your shackle strap is I can recommend those too. The most common size for the type of trailer you have is a 2-5/8 inch shackle strap...

  • Determining the Correct Leaf Springs for a 1996 Interstate Trailer with 5200 lb Axles
    The 5-Leaf Double-Eye Spring, # e34SR, will work with a hanger spacing of 29-3/4 inches. The typical hanger spacing for a 25-1/4 inch long double-eye leaf spring is 29-1/2 inches when using the 2-5/8 inch long shackle straps, # 115052. The extra 1/4 inch of the hanger spacing will not affect the performance. The best way to determine which leaf springs you need is to compare them to the original leaf springs. Overtime, leaf springs will flatten making them longer than their original length...

  • Changing Shackle Strap Length to Maximize Weight Capacity on Sagging Trailer
    The first thing I would check on your trailer is the capacity of the springs. You need to be sure the spring capacity is rated at 1/2 the axle capacity. That way 2 springs equal the capacity of the trailer axle for proper fit. Check the arch of the springs with a level top of spring to top of spring to tie bolt. Next, check your tire size. At some time the tire size and wheel size may have been changed from the stock size. If the stock size is known you can return to that size and it would...

  • Replacement Equalizer Measuring 6-1/8 Inches Long
    I do have all of the parts you need but unfortunately they are not offered in an all inclusive kit. Instead, you would need to purchase them separately. For this, you can use part # TREQ356 for the equalizer, part # 115052 for the shackle strap, and part # 166081 for the shackle bolt. I have attached a review video on each of the above parts for you as well.

  • Are Longer Shackle Straps Needed When Using Equa-Flex Equalizer LC279687 To Replace 6-1/6 Equalizer
    The Equa-Flex Cushioned Equalizers part # LC279687 measures 5-1/2" between the lower two most bolt holes. If you will be using this to replace an equalizer which measures 6-1/6" between the lower two most bolt holes you can and I do recommend installing longer shackle straps in order to offset the difference. If the existing shackle straps are 2-1/4" then I recommend a 2-5/8" part # 115052. I have attached an install/review video on the Equa-Flex Cushioned Equalizers as well.

  • Determining Correct Shackle Strap Size for Top Brand Tandem Axle Trailer
    Trailer manufacturers don't usually keep a record of parts like these that they install at the factory, so I cannot be sure as to the exact length of the shackle strap that would have come originally on your trailer. With this in mind, a 3-1/8 inch long shackle like what you have is typically used on single-axle systems and would be a bit strange on a tandem axle trailer. The most common size for the type of trailer you have is a 2-5/8 inch shackle strap like # 115052. You will simply...

  • Is the TruRyde Equalizer # TREQ356 Available In a Kit
    We can piece together an equalizer kit for you, however the TruRyde Equalizer, # TREQ356, is not included in an equalizer kit or a hanger kit. Your 2005 Keystone Outback 29FBHS should be a tandem axle trailer, so you will only need two equalizers. These equalizers are designed for 1-3/4 inch wide, double-eye leaf springs. Next, you will need 14 shackle bolts that are 3 inches long and have a 9/16 inch diameter. For this, you can use Shackle Bolt, # 166081. Finally, you will need 8 shackle...

  • Replacement Shackle Strap and Bolts for 2002 Carry-On Trailer

  • Heavier Duty Shackle Kit Solution to Replace what Came with # APT5
    The shackle straps that come with the # APT5 are 2-5/8 inches long which we have standard replacements for with the part # 115052 but since you are wanting something more heavy duty I would go with the # MR76ZR as this gives you a much heavier duty shackle that also includes new bolts (to accommodate the thicker shackles), and new bushings as well. The shackles of this kit are longer at 3-1/8 inches which will allow the trailer to sit a little taller but otherwise will work just fine.

  • Can 2-1/2" Shackle Straps be Used for 2006 Innsbruck-Lite 26RB Suspension
    When it comes to shackle straps on a trailer suspension it really boils down to what looks correct. Since leaf springs and equalizers can be switched out (especially on older trailers), longer or shorter shackle straps can be used to help make sure everything is lined up correctly (see attached photo). As long as your suspension looks like that photo then it is perfectly fine to use 2-1/2" shackle straps like the part # 115052 which is 2-5/8" long. If your suspension doesn't look like...

  • Trailer Has 2 Inch Front/Rear Hangers and 3 Inch Center Hangers, New Kit has 3 Inch for All Hangers
    It all depends on the height of the equalizers. The equalizers in kit # APT5 are 2-7/8 inches tall measuring from the center of the top hole to the center of the bottom 2 holes. This could account for the difference in height. Check the height of your equalizers to determine if this is the issue. There is no reason that you cannot use the rest of the kit and not the hangers if your hangers are the same height as the ones in the kit. Or you could get the parts you needed individually. The...

  • Replacement Trailer Shackle Recommendation to Replace Shackle that is 2-1/2 inch on Centers
    The closest shackle we offer to the 2-1/2 inch size you need is the part # 115052 which is 2-5/8 inches from hole center to center. This would only be 1/8 of an inch larger than what you need so it would work well.

  • How to Pick Out Replacement Shackle Bolt and Straps for Trailer Leaf Spring Suspension
    Based on the info you gave me I don't know exactly what you would need so your best option would be to measure the diameter and length of the bolts you would need plus the length of the shackle strap. Once you have that info check out the links I attached that are the shackle and bolt pages we have. You would be able to select what dimensions you need from the filters on each page.
