For your 2017 Keystone Raptor 398TS, I recommend checking out the:

-MORryde Shock Absorbing Suspension Equalizers for Triple Axle Trailers w/ 33" Wheelbase # MR59ZR.

These equalizers are designed to work with triple axle trailers with a 33" wheelbase and have up to an 8K axle capacity, like your Keystone Raptor.

Additionally, these equalizers are made in the USA, have an easy bolt-on installation, and will deliver a smoother ride by reducing the stress on the frame.

For your shackle straps and bolts, you are going to need the MORryde Suspension Upgrade Kit for Tandem Axle Trailers # MR46ZR.

Finally, for your springs I recommend the 6-Leaf Double-Eye Spring for 7,000-lb Trailer Axles # e64SR.

These are 6 leaf double eye leaf springs that measure 24-7/8" from eye to eye, and have a maximum axle capacity of 7,000-lbs.
