Based on the information you gave me you have a couple options for shock absorbers for your 5th wheel trailer. If you 5th wheel has 3" axles you are going to want the Roadmaster Comfort Ride Shock Absorbers for Tandem Axle Trailers item # RM-2460 you were looking at. This system is for a tandem axle trailer with 5,200 lbs to 7,000 lbs axles. These heavy duty gas shocks absorb road vibration to provide a more comfortable towing experience. This kit improves front-to-back, side-to-side, and up-and-down movement of your trailer. I have linked an installation video.

If your 5th wheel has 3-1/2" axles you will want the Roadmaster Comfort Ride Shock Absorbers for Tandem Axle Trailers item # RM-2470. This kit is for 5th wheel trailers with 8,000 lbs axles.
