You may get more responses if you list what type of rig you are upgrading the axles on.

I am seriously considering getting the MoRRyde 7K Independent Suspension with Disc Brakes installed on my Cedar Creek. Kinda pricey but worth it I think

I talked to guy the other day that travels a lot. He did the moryde system on his redwood and loves it. Said he hasn't had any issues at all.

I didn't change axles, just put a wet kit with heavy shackles and added a cross bar across the center equalizer mount. I haven't towed yet but it's gotta be better. My Sandpiper is 1 year old and around 3k miles on it and the factory bushings were already worn. Not wore out, but a couple were close.

Currently in the process of installing the Morryde wet bolts, CRE3000 equalizer, and their cross beam in the center only. I've finished one side and have a couple comments.
First, the wet bolts are too short to install the cross beam. Got to find longer bolts. And of course they won't be wet bolts. Would have been nice to know that before starting this project!!
Secondly, my unit, FR Stealth SA 2714, has the axles on top of the springs. I'm now concerned that with the 'extra travel' provided by the equalizer my axles will hit the frame. Fully loaded, before the Morryde parts, there was about 2" clearance btwn the top of the axle and the frame.
