For your Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution System with a 12,000 pound towing capacity, you will use the Replacement Head # EQ90-02-1200. This head will fit all Equal-i-zer weight distribution systems that have a maximum towing weight capacity of 12,000 pounds and tongue weight capacity of 1,200 pounds.

If you also need replacement bolts, you can use part # EQ90-02-9100.
