Replacement Cushioned Equalizer for Solid Equalizers 6 Inches on Center

Question:

Im looking at the Dexter ez flex 5 5/8 equalizers. My current solid equalizer measures at 6inch so these are 3/8inch shorter. And my axle spacing is 32inch and not 33inch the distances seem very minor. Does the manufacturer of ez flex have a tolerance. For such a minor size difference?

Expert Reply:

The E-Z Flex Heavy Duty Rubber Suspension System by Dexter Axle - 5-5/8" Equalizers # K71-652-00 will work fine with your system. The rubber allows them to flex between 5-1/4 inches and 6-1/4 inches so you will have no problem replacing your equalizers. The 32 inch versus 33 inch axle spacing will also not have an impact as your system components already account for your measurements. The shackle straps included will work fine with your leaf springs and this equalizer.
