Question:
Will these work on a double axle Dexter kit? I cant find a shackle straps for a double axel vs a single axle on your site.

Expert Reply:
Yes, the Dexter Single Axle Heavy Duty Suspension Kit part # K71-403-00 will work on tandem axle trailer you'll just need to purchase multiple kits. This is a standard kit that will work great for most trailers but if you're looking for an upgrade, I recommend the Dexter Heavy Duty Suspension Upgrade Kit part # K71-358-00 since it has bronze bushings which increase longevity, thicker shackles for added strength, and grease fittings for easy maintenance.
