Will Roadmaster Comfort Ride Shocks RM-2460 Fit A 2019 Forest River Sierra 357RE 5th Wheel Trailer?

Question:

Looking to see if this shock set would be a good fit for my 5th wheel? Im looking to improve the towing characteristics over the OEM as delivered, twin 7000lb Dexter Axles with equa-flex and leaf springs. I dont believe there is sufficient room between the tire and frame for the Lippert product. For two axles, is this complete or would I need two sets, one for each axle?

Based on the pictures you provided the Roadmaster Comfort Ride Shock Absorbers for Tandem Axle Trailers - 5,200-lb to 7,000-lb Axle # RM-2460 will fit your 2019 Forest River Sierra 357RE 5th wheel trailer with tandem 7000lb Dexter axles. The # RM-2460-50 you were looking at is a single add on kit for a triple axle trailer, and isn't what you would use on your tandem axle trailer.

This kit will do a fantastic job of improving the ride and towing quality of your trailer as the nitrogen filled shock absorbers absorb road shock, and since they limit lateral movement they will also help prevent sway.

The # RM-2460 is a complete kit that includes everything needed to install shocks on each axle of your trailer.

I included a video of the # RM-2460 for you to take a look at.
