Will The Trailer Ride Height Change When Switching From MORryde to Roadmaster Comfort Ride

Question:

Will installing the Roadmaster Comfort Ride Leaf Spring Suspension Kit w/ Shocks - Tandem 8K, 3-1/2 Axles in place of the MORRyde CRE-3000 change my trailers overall height? If so, by how much?

This will really come down to the height of your shackle straps along with the MORryde Shock Absorbing Suspension Equalizers # MR27ZR. The best way I can explain this is the Roadmaster Comfort Ride Leaf Spring Suspension Kit w/ Shocks # RM-2470-2580 is going to place the roller the slipper spring rides on in line with the mounting bolt on the hanger. Depending on how much further above or below your current shackles place the end of the double eye leaf spring will give you an idea of how much further your suspension may sit from where it currently is. Remember since only one side is changing you need to divide that measurement in half since the mounting point on the other end of the spring is unchanged.

I hope this reference is clear enough for you to understand as I can't give you an exact number on the MORryde either as it changes height as it compresses and wears.
