Expert Reply:
I would be happy to help, but first I will need a little more information.
The correct replacement shackles for your 28' Pace Enclosed Race Trailer will be determined by the length of the shackle measured from center to center of the two mounting holes.
The 3" end to end measurement means you possibly have a 2-5/8" shackle like the # LC146060, but to be sure you will want to remove one of the other shackles on the trailer and measure it as shown in the included diagram.
If you find you have a different length shackle just let me know.
I included a video of the # LC146060 for you to take a look at.
