What Length Heavy Duty MORryde Shackle Kit to Use CRE3000 Equalizer

Question

Question:

Hi, my 2020 Jayco Whitehawk has 2 5/8inch shackles from the factory. I am trying to figure out whether I should go with the 2 1/4inch or the 3 1/8inch MorRyde Wet Bolt Shackle Kit as it seems that MorRyde does not offer a 2 5/8inch option. I will also be upgrading to the MorRyde CRE3000 equalizer at the same time. I have a 42inch wheelbase and a 14 3/4inch equalizer length. Please advise. Thank you!

If you went with the shorter shackle kit part # MR46ZR you'd slightly increase the ride height of your trailer or if you went with the longer one # MR76ZR you'd lower it ever so slightly but either would work great.

Either will work great with the MORryde Equalizer Kit for 42 inch wheelbases part # MR34AR.

Since your shackle straps are 2-1/4 inch for a wet bolt and heavy duty shackle kit you'd want the #MR46ZR which comes with bushings as well. You do not need new equalizers.

The MORryde CRE3000 equalizers, like part #MR27ZR, fit with 9/16" wet bolts so the bolts that come with the MORryde Suspension Upgrade Kit for Tandem Axle Trailers #MR46ZR will fit and you just need to compare the 2-1/4" shackles to what…

Since you have a Dometic AC unit the best option to replace it from Advent would be the part #ACDOM135 which was designed for this exact situation and would allow you an easy install since the electronics would plug right in.

Since your current equalizers have 14-3/4 inches between bolt holes the MorRyde cushioned equalizer you'd need is the part #MR34AR. The wet bolt/shackle kit you need is the part #MR46ZR and then for the frame brace you'd want the #MR33WR.…
