Recommended Equalizer Kit for Tandem Axle Trailer with 13-104-02 Equalizers

Question:

The response provided what I needed with the exception that the kit number was for a tandem axle trailer Code K71-359-00, but my trailer is a dual axle trailer. I would like the kit number for the heavy duty kit for a dual-axle trailer . I would appreciate your help with this matter.

The Suspension Kit for Tandem-Axle Trailers - 1-3/4" Wide Double Eye Springs # AP233 is the standard suspension kit. For a heavy duty option, we have the Dexter Axle Heavy-Duty Suspension Kit for Tandem Axle Trailers - 1-3/4" Double Eye Springs # K71-359-00.

We also have the E-Z Flex Heavy Duty Rubber Suspension System by Dexter Axle - 5-5/8" Equalizers # K71-652-00. This kit has the shock absorbing equalizer for a smoother ride and grease zerks for easy maintenance.

Sorry for the confusion with terms. A dual axle trailer and tandem axle trailer are the same thing. Dual means consisting of two parts, and tandem means having two things arranged one in front of the other. Both terms work regarding a trailer with two axles. Manufacturers use these terms interchangeably as customers will keyword search one or the other, so I can see how it could be confusing. The Heavy Duty kit you want is the Dexter Axle Heavy-Duty Suspension Kit for Tandem Axle Trailers - 1-3/4" Double Eye Springs # K71-359-00. Let me know if you have any further questions.
