Helpful Expert Reply:

For your Jayco Flight the Equa-Flex cushioned equalizers LC279687 would be the correct kit to go with. Lippert recommends the use of the Tandem Axle Equa-Flex AP Kit - Wet Bolts # LC64FR with their Equa-Flex equalizers like this so this would be your best option. If your current bolts are fine you could reuse them.
