Longer Equalizer for Equa-Flex Cushioned Equalizers on 2018 Winnebago 2606RL Tandem Axle
Question:
I have a 2018 Winnebago 2606RL with dual 3500 lb Lippert axles 29.5 inch on center. The stock equalizer is 2 inch from the shackle bolt hole to the pivot hole vertically, 5.75 inch shackle hole to shackle hole horizontally and 3.5 inch from shackle hole to pivot hole diagonally. The Equa-Flex is taller vertically, you show 2.5 inch Lippert website shows 2 7/8. Other dimensions are different as well. Looks like it will work but probably will require longer shackles to maintain the same ride height, question is what length? I currently have 2.5 inch shackles. I would also want to do wet bolts at the same time.

Expert Reply:
Based on the dimensions you offered of your Winnebago's current equalizer, longer shackle straps will be needed in order to use the Equa-Flex Cushioned Equalizers # LC279687.
Since you mentioned also wanting wet bolts, we actually have a kit that has everything you need, the Lippert Components Tandem Axle Equa-Flex AP Kit # LC64FR.
This kit has the 3-1/8" long shackle straps you need, as well as wet bolts and nuts. The combination of the cushioned equalizers and wet bolts will give you one of the best trailer suspension set ups you can get.
