For your Keystone Cougar Half-Ton 29RKS I recommend the MORryde Suspension Upgrade Kit for Tandem Axle Trailers. This kit comes with wet bolts, bronze bushings, and 1/2" thick steel shackle straps. You can be confidant that these components will last.

The correct kit will depend on the length of your current shackle straps, which is measured from center of hole to center of hole. If you have 2-1/4" shackles you need the # MR46ZR. For 3-1/8" shackles you need the # MR76ZR.

I have attached some installation videos for your reference.

Answer 5

Typically a suspension bolt will be measured by the shaft of the bolt not including the head, since the head of the bolt isn't used in mounting the springs. The shackles are 3-3/4" long x 1-1/2" tall overall and the bolt holes are…

Answer 6

The AllTrek 4000 kits provide the best cushioning so if you were to upgrade from your CRE3000 kit to the Alltrek you would see a big improvement. If you have a 35 inch wheelbase you'd want the part #MR29DR or if you have a 33 inch wheelbase…

Answer 10

The hangers you currently have on your trailer are ones I have run into before. That being said, I spoke with MORryde and the #MR27ZR will still fit your trailer, but there is a modification that will need to be made. You’ll have to trim according to…
