Upgraded Suspension and Replacement Bearings for Tandem Axle Travel Trailer
Question:
Hello, I would like to upgrade my suspension on my 2020 Grand Design XLS 23BHE with a Morryde and upgrade to wet/greasable bolts on the shackles. Could you provide part numbers for these please? If possible, please provide wheel bearing numbers. Thank you very much.

Because the RV manufacturers don't keep a database for that information, I have no way of looking up the suspension geometry of your travel trailer. I was able to determine that you have tandem 3500 lb axles that would use an L68149 inner and L44649 outer bearing which are available individually or in a kit as part # BK2-100. The kit includes the inner and outer bearing, the inner and outer race, the grease seal, the tang washer and a replacement cotter pin.
To determine the correct suspension upgrade, I'll need to know the center to center distance between the front and rear axles of your travel trailer plus the height and width of your existing equalizers and the length of your shackle links.
I'll provide a photo showing how those measurements should be taken.
If you can provide this information, I'd be happy to recommend parts for you.
