Equalizer Suspension Upgrade for 2013 Skyline 24 foot Travel Trailer
Question:
looking to upgrade suspension on 2013 Skyline 24 foot TT. The axles are minimally spaced at 28.5 inches. The equalizer is a dexter 13-104. It is 2 inches vertical dimension. It is 5 3/4 horizontal. Will the Lippert or Dexter components work in my application?

Expert Reply:
Thank you for providing those detailed measurements. When I spoke with Lippert, they couldn't provide me a minimum axle space for the Road Armor # LC696740 to confirm fit.
Another option they recommended however that could confirm minimum axle space for was the Equa-Flex Cushioned Equalizers - Double Eye Springs - Tandem Axle - 3K to 6K # LC279687 that requires up to 20-1/2" minimum axle space. These have a 5-1/2" eye center to eye center dimension and height of 2-1/2".
The # K71-652-00 is a direct replacement for your current equalizers however these require 33" minimum axles space that Dexter confirmed would not work as is.
