Hi all, I finally did it I located Monroe shocks for my trailer. They need to be modified a little but they fit nicely. I used the Monroe part # 911047. It has the needed 3/8 pin on the top with the loop on the bottom. The eye on the bottom is for a 12MM mount (LS23). My trailer is a 5/8 inch mount. The modification is as follows: Press out the steel bushing it takes some effort but took about 10 minutes with a vice to do all 4 of them. Next I took a 5/8 inch flat wood drill bit and drilled the rubber bushing to open the hole to the right size. (Note a twist drill doesn't work) So basically I change the Lower loop mount from the LS23 that the shock came with to an LI loop. I used a little soap to get the shock on the trailer. And so far it looks like it is working well. Don
