MORryde Shackle Upgrade Kit for CRE3000/Equaflex 2.25" Shackles — Heavy-Duty with Bronze Bushings & Greasable Bolts

The MORryde UO12-016 Heavy Duty Shackle Upgrade Kit replaces worn 2.25" shackles with thicker hardware, bronze bushings, and greasable bolts to extend service life under tandem-axle loads.

If your trailer or RV suspension uses CRE3000, Stock, or Equaflex 2.25" shackles, this MORryde upgrade kit provides a straightforward way to reduce wear from rough roads and heavy cargo. Designed specifically for tandem-axle setups, the kit swaps in stronger shackles and maintenance-friendly components so your running gear performs more reliably without replacing entire suspension parts.

How does this upgrade improve durability on rough roads?

The kit uses thicker steel shackles and bronze bushings to resist deformation and uneven wear that standard shackles can suffer from. Combined with greasable bolts it reduces metal-on-metal abrasion and helps the connection last longer between service intervals.

• Thicker shackles increase shear and bending resistance for heavy loads.
• Bronze bushings offer superior wear properties versus plain steel.
• Greasable bolts lower friction and protect attachment points.
• Designed for tandem axles to balance load distribution.

Will this fit my CRE3000, Stock, or Equaflex 2.25" shackles?

Yes—the UO12-016 kit is specified to fit CRE3000, Stock, and Equaflex systems that use 2.25" shackles. It is engineered to match the standard shackle dimensions and mounting interface used in these suspension components.

• Compatible with 2.25" shackle diameter configurations.
• Intended for tandem-axle arrangements only.
• Direct replacement parts minimize modification needs.

What maintenance advantages do the bronze bushings and greasable bolts offer?

Bronze bushings run smoother and are more wear-resistant than untreated steel, while greasable bolts let you replenish lubrication without disassembly. This combination reduces ongoing maintenance time and delays the need for future replacements.

• Bronze reduces friction and resists galling under load.
• Grease fittings permit quick relubrication in place.
• Less frequent part replacement lowers lifetime costs.

How simple is installation and what should I expect?

Installation is a direct swap for matching 2.25" shackles and is suitable for most mechanically inclined owners or a professional shop. Basic hand tools remove the old shackles and fit the new, greasable bolts and bushings; torque and safety checks follow manufacturer guidelines.

• Direct-fit replacement—no welding or major alterations required.
• Requires standard hand tools and torque wrench for correct clamp loads.
• Inspect hardware and re-torque after initial road miles.

Who is this for? The MORryde UO12-016 Heavy Duty Shackle Upgrade Kit is ideal for RV owners, trailer fleet managers, and anyone who regularly hauls heavy loads on uneven roads and wants to extend suspension life without replacing major components. It fits CRE3000, Stock, and Equaflex systems using 2.25" shackles on tandem-axle rigs, and is aimed at users who prefer a maintenance-friendly, durable upgrade that reduces downtime and part turnover.
