Zinc Shackle Bolt with Locknut for Double-Eye Springs - 3" Long
Parts are a 5, delivery options questionable.Can't delivery 10 pounds of metal in a paper mailer. Was tore open on the bottom. I run a mailing business and I can tell you its not that much more expensive to use a box.
New bolts made replacement of springs easy

Wet Equalizer Bolt with Locknut and Grease Zerk for Double-Eye Springs - 3" Long
The wet bolts were just fine. But the "locking nuts" with the crimped edges were aweful. The 3 dimples each nut has were not useful. Many of the nuts I could use my fingers to spin them on the bolts. Never had locking pressure. I ended up going to local hardware store for much better locking nuts.
I used these "wet" bolts on my leaf spring change out. I ended up using 3 per equalizer since that seems to be the location of most of the movement during axle travel and a friends 5th wheel had 3 installed on the factory set up, so that is what I went with. I painted a yellow mark on the head of the bolt in reference to the grease hole in the shaft, so that I could install them in the direction of "least resistance" when greasing them later, after reading how some guys have to relieve pressure on their trailer in order to get the bolts to take grease. I used Mystik 6 grease mixed with anti seize when putting everything together, then gave them 2 shots of Mystik 6 after installation. (I chose Mystik 6 because we always had good results with that grease when I was in the aircraft industry and it doesn't was out.) I did notice that the grease zerks did allow grease to return out of the fitting which means the spring behind the ball isn't doing its job. That is why I rated them as "good". There are different ways to install these due to the knurled shoulder. If you have access to an impact gun you can just tighten them in with that. Pulls the knurl right in to the shackle. Overall I like the idea of having a suspension that can be greased.

I am rebuilding an old trailer and was lucky enough to get Justin on the phone. Hel listened to my needs and searched until he found the hanger bolts and bushing the fit my equalizer perfectly. He is a real pro! The trailer is coming along great thanks to your great staff
I have been trying to rebuild an old Big Tex trailer for the past month through local vendors. We needed springs, hardware, brakes, lights ect. We use this trailer for feeding cattle out on the range and the window was closing. Everytime I got a part from the local company it was wrong. Finally I found etrailer and everything was so simple to find myself and order. The service was outstanding and the delivery was a day ahead of schedule. I ordered all my suspension hardware and lights from them, it was quick and easy, quality looks great. Thank you

I needed it quickly because on stripped on my trailer and we were getting ready to leave the state in our Wold Pup. I paid for the extra shipping and they got out and to me in 2 days. Thank you.
These are the exact bolts used by the manufacturer of my trailer. I had a spring break after 10yrs use, so am replacing the springs and all the bolts at the same time, thank you to etrailer for the springs (ordered earlier) and now the bolts/nuts, all arrived quickly and accurately, you are my first choice for all trailer parts for my 7 trailers, thank you and keep up the good work!
