Recommended Suspension Upgrade for 2007 Dutchman 28 Foot Tagalong Trailer
Question:
I am looking for a suspension upgrade, from what Ive reading Lippet Corps and Dexter EZ flex makes a replacement equalizer for a dual suspension. My springs is 26 1/4 in length. I want to order the right kit the first time out because I dont want to drag the insulation out. My Question is: Which product is better and will last the longest? I want to replace all the bushings and bolts and make them greaseable. What kit is that. Please provide me the measurements that I need to send you.

Expert Reply:
The Equa-Flex Cushioned Equalizers - Double Eye Springs - Tandem Axle - 3K to 6K # LC279687 and the E-Z Flex Heavy Duty Rubber Suspension System by Dexter Axle - 5-5/8" Equalizers # K71-652-00 are both really good products that will help with shock absorption. The Dexter product is superior in my opinion and the warranty is twice as long. I like the wet bolt design for both ends of the springs and the zerk fittings integrated into the equalizer. This system will work well for your trailer and give you the bushings, wet bolts, and cushioned equalizers for a smooth operation with your current spring length. No other components or hardware needed.
If you don't already have a grease gun, I recommend # L30-310 to work seamlessly with these zerk fittings on your bolts and equalizer.
