The spring hanger placement is going to be determined by your axle spacing. For example, if your axles are spaced 33 inches apart, as shown in the attached diagram, a 7K axle slipper spring, like #e74SR, requires a distance of 28-1/2 inches between…

For a 7/8 inch bolt to use with the #TREQ4541 we only have the part #TRFA71063 which is 4-11/16 inches in length. It may seem a little long but it would still work well. The wet bolts are just as strong as the non-wet bolts we carry.

The equalizer in the Tandem-Axle Trailer Equalizer Kit #AP216 is 11-1/2" on center from the outer spring mounting holes when measuring horizontal separation. One hole will be 6" on center from the equalizer mounting hole center and the…

It sounds like you have an equalizer bolt like part #7-136-2-6-112 as opposed to one with a hex head like the part #7-169-6-112. This is fine as long as the diameter and length matches what you're needing. When installing suspension bolts on your…

The Swan-Shaped Equalizer #13-4 does not require a bushing. Instead it is recommended to use the Wet Equalizer Bolt #TRFA71063.
