In this video, I replace multiple worn OEM suspension parts on our Keystone Cougar fifth-wheel trailer. They get swapped out with heavier duty components from Lippert Components (LCI).

First, the OEM Trail Air EquaFlex equalizer gets upgraded to the beefier LCI Road Armor EQ. Next, the regular bolts are replaced with greaseable bolts along with bronze bushings. A big step up from the existing plastic bushing. Finally, the thin steel shackle links are swapped out for much thicker aluminum ones.

Overall the upgrades should provide a smoother tow and last much longer. Once I put a decent amount of test miles on this suspension upgrade, I'll come back with a review video.
