Trailer is all fixed on both sides and has a new set of 6 and a spare of new shoes!!!




Problem solved. Worth every penny.

Seems like the next logical step. Mine were shot and noisy with very little mileage. Save the blingy upgrades for later. Protect the trailer first is my philosophy.

Just sayin...FWIW...YMMV...

Mine aren't noisy yet. I need to see what options are most appropriate for my trailer type. Do I upgrade with just wet bolts or do the equalizers too? If I do that, should I just upgrade to bigger axles too as we really like the trailer and want to keep it for many years (that's at least the plan now). These are questions I dive into more this year as I don't have to worry about tires now.

Mine came with a Mor/ryde equalizer, so I just installed a wetbolt kit before my first big trip. The plastic bushings were worn out. Its not just wetbolts and bronze bushings. You get 1/2" shackles, too. The stock shackles are only 1/4" thick. The Mor/ryde equalizer has to be better than a plain equalizer.

Axles? I'm staying with stock unless something breaking requires a replacement, then I'll go up one step.
