Shock Absorber Kit Double Stud With Hardware for RV Trailer Suspension
R&P Carriages replacement hydraulic shock absorber kit with double-stud mounting hardware for compatible RV, camper, and trailer suspension applications using Dexter 052-003-00 / 005-003-00 style shock references.
Overview
The R&P Carriages SA-568167-KIT Shock Absorber Kit is built for RV, camper, and trailer suspension repair where a double-stud hydraulic shock absorber style is required. This kit uses the supplied Dexter 052-003-00 / 005-003-00 replacement reference information as the application guide, while the kit itself is assembled and sold by R&P Carriages. The hydraulic shock helps moderate suspension motion, reduce trailer hop, and restore steadier control across uneven pavement, expansion cracks, and changing road conditions.
R&P Service Insight
Trailer shock absorbers help control suspension rebound. When they wear out, the trailer can feel bouncy, loose, or unsettled behind the tow vehicle.
- Ride Control: Helps reduce trailer hop when traveling with lighter cargo loads.
- Repair Use: Helpful for restoring control to older trailers experiencing increased sway or bounce.
- Fitment Check: Confirm double-stud mounting, shock length, and application reference before ordering.

R&P Repair Insight
If your trailer suspension feels rough, bouncy, or loose, the shock absorber may no longer be controlling rebound properly. Replacing the shock strut and related rubber hardware can help restore steadier towing behavior and reduce excess suspension movement.
- Check the Mounts: Make sure the trailer uses the correct double-stud / pin mounting arrangement.
- Inspect Rubber Parts: Worn rubber stoppers can contribute to looseness and poor shock attachment.
- Replace as Needed: For balanced performance, inspect the matching shock on the opposite side of the trailer as well.
