Will MORryde Suspension Upgrade Kit Work with Road Armor Shock Absorbing Equalizer Kit

Question

Question:

I want to upgrade my suspension on my Imagine XLS 22mle to Road Armor and wet bolts. From what I read I can use MORRYDE suspension upgrade kit with 3 1/8 shackles. It is much less than Lippert Kit and comes with brass sleeves. Thanks for your help.

Helpful Expert Reply:

Yes, you can use the MORryde Suspension Upgrade Kit for Tandem Axle Trailers part # MR98ZR in place of the Lippert AP Kit part # LC52SV with the Road Armor Shock Absorbing Equalizer Kit part # LC696740. They both have 3-1/8" shackle links with wet bolts. The MORryde also comes with bronze sleeves.

I have a solution for you, but I can't say that using longer shackles with a shorter equalizer is going to be the best solution since it may change the frame clearance from your trailer. Instead of going with the Road Armor 6" Equalizers…

The dimension you are looking for is 3-1/8 inches. That is the vertical distance from the top mounting bolt of the Road Armor Equalizer part #LC696740 to the horizontal attachment holes.

If you are installing just the Firestone Ride-Rite kit, #F2400, and not also adding an on-board air compressor such as #F2158, then I would estimate that it should take about 2 hours to install the kit. That is for someone with some mechanical…
