Helpful Expert Reply:

Between the two kits, the better option for replacing your 2-5/8" shackle straps is the version with the shorter 2-1/4" shackle straps, which is the following part number:

- MORryde Suspension Upgrade Kit for Tandem Axle Trailers # MR46ZR

This will lower your trailer ever so slightly, but still allow enough room for suspension travel. Going with longer shackle straps like the other kit has will result in more movement within your suspension, which can lead to suspension components wearing out more rapidly.
