Compatibility Of Dexter Heavy-Duty Suspension Kit Item # K71-449-00 With Current Setup

Question:

I ordered this kit last night. The pictures at your site show the center-hole to center-hole of the shackle straps as 1-1/4, but mine are 1-1/2. Am reasoning that a 1/4inch difference wont be a problem other than lowering the trailer 1/4inch : Also, at your web page under Specs: for this item, the dimensions of the equalizers center-hole to center-hole 7-5/8 are different from the pictures which depict 7-3/4. Little confusing. Mine are the same as the pictures of the equalizer 7-3/4. Everything I have ordered in the past has fit, so I am hopeful that my worries are for nothing.

The 1/4 inch shackle strap difference With the Dexter Heavy-Duty Suspension Kit, Item # K71-449-00, will make a slight difference but should not be a problem. I certainly would not go with anything that is greater than 1/4 inch difference. The measured length on the website is 7-3/4 inches so that is the correct dimension of the equalizers.
