Are you positive the tire wear and elongated shackle holes are due to the Equa Flex? About the only think that can fail on the Equaflex is the rubber encapsulated body. Several of us have had bad /bent axles straight from the factory. Some have had them replaced others have had alignments done. If you don't have wet bolts, it pretty normal to have elongated hangar holes as the stock plastic bushings fail early. There should be about 1/8+" of toe-in on both axles as well as some positive camber at each wheel. Bad alignment and or axles will peel tires off quickly. You should be able to discern a bit of upward bow just looking at each axle. There are wet bolt kits available that are relatively easy to install ... shackles are included.
