We have two shock kits for trailer suspension. We have the part # LC281281 which fits 3 inch diameter trailer axles which typically are found on 5,200 to 7,000 lb axles or the part # LC281255 which fits 2-3/8 inch axles that are normally 3,500 lb axles.
You'd need to measure the diameter of your trailer axles and go with the kit that matches what you have.
