Can Wet Bolt be Used as Replacement Shackle Bolt
Question:
Im flipping the axle on a small single-axle Starcraft bumper pull and broke one of the leaf spring bolts. Im not sure what to replace it with. I initially thought the 3 inch shackle bolt with locking nut Item # 166081, but on closer inspection its not a shoulder bolt like the one on my trailer see photo. The wet shoulder bolt Item # 34007-187-00 looks more like it, but I dont really care about the zerk fitting. Can I use the shackle bolt without a shoulder? Id like to replace all four 2 for each leaf spring, the upper bolts on the shackle straps are too difficult to remove/replace.

Thank you for the photo. Based on that you can use either Shackle Bolt with Locknut # 166081 or Wet Equalizer Bolt with Locknut and Grease Zerk # 126B2.
These are the exact same 3-5/16" bolt with 9/16" diameter and the only difference is that wet bolt # 126B2 comes with the zerk fitting you referenced.
