Question:

What is the bolt hole center height of the Equalizer in the APT5 kit, or what is the part number of the equalizer in the APT5 kit. Im looking to replace a suspension with an Equalizer that is 7 3/4 inch long and 2 7/8 inch high. all measured to bolt hole centers. Thank you.

Expert Reply:

The center equalizer of the Tandem-Axle Trailer Hanger Kit for Double Eye Springs # APT5 is 7-3/4 inches long (center of bolt hole to center of bolt hole) and measures 3-3/16 inches tall; it is the Equalizer # TREQE1.

The equalizer that is 7-3/4 inches wide and 2-7/8 inches tall is the Equalizer # TREQE34, however this equalizer has a 3/4 inch center bolt hole while the equalizer in the # APT5 has a 9/16 inch center bolt hole. However, the most important part is the length, and since they are equal in width, the height difference between the two equalizers is so small (5/16 inch) that it won't affect your trailer's suspension height essentially at all.

There isn't a similar hanger kit with the 2-7/8 inch tall equalizer, but you won't have any problems whatsoever by using the slightly taller equalizer in the Tandem-Axle Trailer Hanger Kit for Double Eye Springs # APT5.
