The Roadmaster Comfort Ride Shock Absorbers for Tandem Axle Trailers part # RM-2450 will fit most trailers with 3,500 lb, 2-3/8" diameter axles. The lower bracket bolts to the tie-plate and the upper bracket drills into the frame. It's not possible to determine fit on every trailer so you'll need to review the attached installation instructions and make the call yourself. That said, so long as you have the correct kit for your axle size and there isn't anything unusual they should work great for you.
