Yeah, I goofed when I posted up the part. You need the one Joe posted up. I think the only difference is the width of the leaf bracket, but it will keep you from having to do any fabbing...

Those bags are EXACTLY what you need!!!

Mine keep me perfectly level with only about 40# of air in them (max is 100#) when pulling a 7700# Kubota tractor AND box blade on a relatively heavy dual axle trailer.

A little DIY install with pics would be nice if you plan on doing it yourself. I put mine on before I was a member here (or on any forum for that matter) so all I can do is go back and snap "after" pics...
