In order to determine the correct replacement shackle links for your Keystone 5th Wheel Trailer, you will want to measure both the length and hole diameter on your existing parts. Unfortunately, trailer manufacturers do not typically keep record of smaller parts like suspension components that were installed at the factory. Finding a replacement that matches the dimensions on your current shackle is the best and most accurate method.

It sounds like you have this hanger kit # AP233-H248 installed on your trailer, which has the hangers spaced out by 29-1/2" on center. We don't have the exact specs from trailers that have been made over the years so you'll want to confirm this on your end of things.
If this is true then it means you need the following parts to replace your suspension:
- Suspension Kit for Tandem-Axle Trailers # AP233
- 4-Leaf Double-Eye Spring for 3,500-lb Trailer Axles # e54SR
This gives you replacement... view full answer...
We carry all types of suspension related parts including leaf springs, shackle straps, suspension bolts, equalizers, etc. All parts categories are shown on the linked pages.
I checked the Grand Design website specs for the Imagine 2800BH but details on the axle ratings and suspension parts are not included (this is not at all unusual with RV makers). So to select replacement double-eye leaf springs, shackle straps, equalizers, etc you will just want to note the dimensions of the original... view full answer...
We have some trailer shock kits for trailers but nothing that fits your older trailer. If you are looking to revamp your suspension with more common parts I'd be happy to help you out, but from the photos I found online you have a unique system so we'd have to get you a whole new axle and suspension kit like this 3.5K Timbren kit:
- Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension w Electric Brakes # A35RS545E
This kit is a good substitution because it installs directly on the trailer frame and... view full answer...
It sounds like you need new leaf spring bushings # TRBU11566 for your 1960s trailer. For reference I have linked our pages for suspension bushings in particular and for various trailer suspension parts in general. I also included a helpful article on trailer suspensions.
You do not mention your specific bushing size so you can review the linked bushing page to see the items we stock. You can click on the length and inner and outer dimensions you need to see what we offer in that size.... view full answer...
The MORryde cushioned suspension equalizers like the CRE3000 part # MR27ZR that you referenced do not affect the height of the trailer at all.
If you wanted to lift the trailer you could use the Correct Track lift kit part # RR23QX as well. view full answer...
Yes, we do have more of a kit that includes an equalizer with the same specs as the Triangular Equalizer for 1-3/4" Double-Eye Springs # TREQ310. This is the Dexter Heavy-Duty Suspension Kit for Tandem-Axle Trailers # K71-448-00 and it comes with the equalizers, bolts, and shackles needed to replace your current parts.
Aside from this you'll need new springs and potentially hangers depending on the current shape of these parts. If you need to replace those parts as well let me know the... view full answer...
We do not carry standard automotive type shocks and the Lippert Heavy-Duty Replacement Shock # LC283280 that you referenced is intended for larger travel trailer suspensions.
The trailer axles we offer are intended primarily for leaf spring trailer suspension applications, rather than for suspensions with shocks, but we also do offer axle-less suspension units that can bolt right on to a trailer frame, eliminating the need for an actual axle beam. Given the age of the trailer you may... view full answer...
We carry all sorts of parts for trailer suspensions, including U-bolts for both round and square axles of various dimensions. Our main pages for all trailer suspension parts and for U-bolt kits are linked.
We have complete u-bolt/plate kits for 2-inch square axles, part # CE23103 which has an inside width of 2-1/8-inches. Depending on how you measured your u-bolt this may be the kit you need.
We also sell u-bolts with hardware on their own, without plates, such as # CE15501A which is... view full answer...
To replace the hub assemblies on the Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension System # A20RS545 the Dexter Trailer Idler Hub # 8-258-5UC1-EZ will work perfectly. This 2,000 pound hub includes all the bearings, races, and seal and it's completely compatible with the spindles on the Timbren Axle-Less System.
We do also have the bearings, races, and seals used on these hubs available separately. For the inner and outer bearings you would need part # L44649 and for the inner/outer races you will... view full answer...
It sounds like your camper uses a torsion axle. The Timbren axle-less suspension system very well might be a great solution for you. In order to determine which particular part number you need, I'll need to know your axle capacity. This information might be found on the axle itself or on the trailer VIN plate. If not, I can figure it out if you'd reply with the reference numbers from your inner and outer wheel bearings. I'd also need to know if your current axle has brakes and what the... view full answer...
We offer lots of individual trailer suspension parts, including hangers, shackle straps and bolts, as well as complete kits that will fit your 2-inch-wide slipper springs. For all tandem-axle hanger kits for 2-inch slipper springs like # AP202-H202 you can click on the linked page. I also included a helpful article on slipper spring trailer suspensions that may be a helpful reference. If the kits we offer do not have the correct parts for your application you can select the individual components... view full answer...
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... view full answer...
The Trailer Axle with Idler Hubs # e84YR is a bit of a smaller axle and while I do have a solution for you, all of our 2K axles that have a 4" drop are a bit larger.
For your application I recommend going with the following parts:
- Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension # ASR2KHDS05
- Easy Grease Trailer Idler Hub Assembly # AKIHUB-545-35-EZ-K (you need 2 of this)
The Timbren kit gives you an upgraded alternative to standard trailer suspension parts and since it doesn't have a crosstube... view full answer...
From the looks of the photo you sent it does not look like you have an OEM suspension system on your boat trailer. I recommend securing the suspension rail to the trailer frame in a more secure manner like drilling and using bolts so that it does not shift.
If you look on the frame of your trailer there should be a plate with the trailer VIN number and the axle capacities of the trailer. You will want to pick leaf springs that are as close to the axle capacity as possible.
You will want... view full answer...
For your Timbren Axle-Less Suspension, # A20RS545, the Dexter Trailer Hub Assembly, # 8-258-5UC1-EZ, will work well for your axles.
The trailer hubs will include bearings, races (installed in hub), seal, grease cap, wheel bolts, and lug nuts. The grease cap has the EZ-Lube design so you can access the grease zerks in the end of your axle's spindles. view full answer...
I reached out to Bear and they were able to confirm that your 3,500lb axles use a #84 spindle. This will allow you to use the Hub Bearing Kit # BK2-100 on each of your axle hubs. The kit includes new inner and outer bearings and races, a grease seal, cotter pin, and tang washer for one hub. The Bearing Buddy Bearing Protectors # BB1980A-SS can be used if your axles do not already have the EZ Lube spindle.
They were also able to tell me they use a 4-Leaf Double-Eye Spring # e54SR. Since... view full answer...
We do not have any equalizers with the dimensions you mentioned.
From the looks of the photo you sent it appears the hole may be elongated and you may be able to use an equalizer that has all of the holes at 9/16-inch like part # TREQ356, or with a center hole that measures 3/4 inch like part # TREQ458.
You will need to measure the equalizer length and height as well as the holes like the attached drawing shows to find the correct replacement.
