The Dexter Heavy Duty Suspension Upgrade Kit # K71-358-00 is a great choice for an upgrade to your single axle trailer. This includes wet bolts, steel bushing, and 1/2" thick steel shackles straps that will last.

For your hangers, you will need to measure your current hangers to find the right height. This is the distance from the center of the bolt hole to the top of the hanger. For example, if you got a measurement of 3-1/4" you could use the # 28-5 for a replacement.

Regarding an installer, our locator does not work for locations in Canada. I did a simple search for trailer/RV repair shops near Hamilton and there were quite a few results so I recommend doing the same to find one close by.

I have attached some installation videos for your reference, along with a link to all of our hangers you can filter by height.
