Upgraded Equalizer for Trailer Suspension for Holding Up for Light Off-Roading
Question:
I live in MT and like to hit some of the national forest campgrounds with my 28 foot bunkhouse one slide 5600 dry weight 7600 max weight. It came with a standard simple triangle equalizer and leaf springs that do not give me much confidence on some of the roads Im on. Im going like 20 plus miles on dirt in some places, washboard and holes Mortimer Gulch/Gibson Reservoir/if interested. I am conservative on these roads from a driving standpoint. I dont want to go all independent suspension as budget is a factor but do want some quality suspension improvements. I see the different choices in suspension upgrades and would like a recommendation. I see Road Armor, Morrryde 3000 and the Dexter equalizer and am wondering if one might be better than another FOR MY PURPOSES. Dust is also a consideration and I am wondering about wet shackles etc. Can you provide any guidance or recommendations.

Helpful Expert Reply:
For your purposes the Dexter EZ Flex kit part # K71-653-00 will give you the best ride quality and longevity since it has grease fittings which make it easy to prevent dust from getting into moving components and wearing them out. We've also been selling the EZ Flex the longest and the positive reviews we have gotten on them is overwhelming and the fact we know they stand up over time very well is why I recommend them for you.
This kit also comes with heavy duty shackles and wet shackle bolts as well.
I also attached an install video for this kit for you to check out as well.
