Hey Danny! We have no way of knowing what is on your 2012 Skyline Nomad Joey 196 so you will have to measure to find replacement parts. If your existing equalizers measure 5-3/4" left to right on center and you have 2-1/4" center hole to center hole shackle straps you can use the # K71-359-00.
For leaf springs, we will need to know your axle capacity and the length of the leaf spring. I have attached a help article below which explains how to measure the springs. For the axle capacity check the axle tag. Once you have this information please add it in the comments below and I will see what we have for a replacement.
