MORryde Rubber Equalizers and Shackle Upgrade for a Haul-About Trailer with Liberty Axles

Question

Question:

I am looking for equalizer suspension kit. I have a new Haul-About Trailer with Liberty Axles. The Model number of the trailer is CGR714TA2. The 7x14 trailer is 7,000 lb or tow 3,500 axles. The serial number of the axle is, 041K5HPRA0521. The distance between center of axle to center of axle is 33 1/2 inches. The distance between the two bolts that the leaf springs attach to is 7 1/2 inches. The distance between the two bolts at the bottom of the equalizer is 6 inches. Thanks

Since you have a 33" axle spread I recommend the MORryde Rubber Equalizers for Tandem Axle Trailers - 33" Wheelbase item # MR87ZR. They are cushioned so they will do a great job of absorbing road shock and providing a smoother ride for your new Haul-About Trailer with Liberty Axles.

If you have 2-1/4" long shackles you will need the MORryde Suspension Upgrade Kit for Tandem Axle Trailers - 2-1/4" Long item # MR46ZR, and if your shackles are 3-1/8" long you will need the MORryde Suspension Upgrade Kit for Tandem Axle Trailers - 3-1/8" item # MR76ZR. Both of these kits include heavy duty 1/2" thick shackle straps, wet bolts, nuts, and bronze bushings.

I contacted MORryde and this does happen from time to time as the weight of the trailer can spread out the axles due to downward pressure on the springs/suspension. Odds are the 35" wheel base #MR27ZR will be the correct one for you, but they…

The length Dexter posts for their leaf springs is the flattened length, so with the 072-042 having a length of 26" you would want to compare that to our 25-1/4" long springs as we measure their length with the spring relaxed. The 3-Leaf…
