Shackle/Equalizer upgrade suggestions

I have a 2017 28BHSW trailer, and I'm thinking it's time to upgrade shackles/equalizer prior to another big trip we have planned. I'm looking for suggestions from others with similar sized trailers who have gone through this.

I did the Morrryde CRE 3000 along with a wet bolt kit. I am very happy with both the product and the result.

I just had all of mine upgraded by my RV shop Monday. They put on Dexter — heavy duty shackles, equalizers, wet bolts etc. Will give them a shakedown cruise next week.

If you do a quick search there are a few threads on this.

Yes, it is worth it. I did mine this year on my 2015 and although mine were not in danger of immediate failure, the bushings were toast and it was metal on metal.

For $140 I’m good to go for the life of my RV.
