Lippert Equaflex Wet Bolts

Would it be ok to use a MOR/ryde UO12016 Heavy Duty Shackle Kit to replace the Lippert ones on our 2011 Keystone Cougar 299RKS? (10,000lb)
The main intention is to use the kit for the wet bolts as it has the centre Equaflex rocker assembly with metal bushings.
I live in Australia & the Lippert kit is too expensive to ship from them (USD$200) whereas the MOR/ryde kits are available on eBay using the Global Shipping program shipping (USD$66).
Appreciate you comments.
Cheers
Jon

I used this https://www.etrailer.com/Trailer-Sus...71-652-00.html and replaced everything including the Equaflex on my 2011 Laredo that is 8200 lbs.

Note, I'm reading that you need to be careful if you have the Correct-Track system, as this requires longer bolts.. don't know if that applies.

Thanks for your info. I don't have the Correct Track systems but assume the wet bolts and thicker shackles will fit the Equaflex as well?

Lippert Equaflex Wet Bolts

I ended up installing new springs, 1/4" shackles and wet bolts to all including Trail Air centre rubber rocker. Lot happier after seeing dry bronze bushes in the rocker.
Thanks for your posts.
