The Husky Replacement Head for Husky Weight Distribution Systems - Round Bar # HT31516 will bolt onto the Reese Weight Dist Shank - 14" Long - 2-1/4" Drop to 7" Rise - 1,400 lbs TW # RP3214 or the Equal-i-zer Weight Dist Shank - 18" Long - 7" Rise, 3" Drop - 600 to 1,400 lbs TW # EQ90-02-4500. Each shank has the weight rating to work appropriately and has the same incremental adjustment of 1-1/4 inches to work properly. The shank is really the only interchangable part on a weight distribution system. Changing out other parts would effect the function of the system.
The Husky replacement head comes with only the head unit. None of the hardware. For the bolts, washers and nuts you can use # EQ90-02-9100. For a zerk fitting, you can use # T0144901 which is a standard size.
