What is Purpose of Splines of Wet Equalizer Bolt with Locknut and Grease Zerk # 126B2  

Equalizer bolts, like the Redline Wet Equalizer Bolt with locknut and grease zerk, #126B2, should be torqued to yield. Equalizer bolts are not given a specific torque rating because they should allow some movement of the equalizer. If they are…

Thank you for providing a photo of your trailer shackle straps showing the extra non-threaded portion of the Redline zerk-fitted bolts #126B2. Shackle bolts are intended to have a fairly loose fit with the shackle straps when installed properly.…

It really shouldn't matter what direction the wet bolts part #126B2 install when used for equalizers or shackle straps. But if Dexter says to install them in the orientation you described then I would recommend you stick with their…

When tightening down Wet Equalizer Bolts like #126B2, our installers in the past have torqued them to about 70 foot pounds. Over tightening can lead to components being damaged so make sure to use a torque wrench that is rated properly. I have…

The number of leaves on a leaf spring is not the only determining factory in the amount of weight it can handle. The thickness of each leaf as well as what the leaf is made out of can affect the weight rating and performance of the spring. The…

Regardless of the amount of leaves a leaf spring has if the capacity is the same between two of them they would both flex and bottom out the same. I would recommend you have your trailer and boat weighed so that you know whether or not you are…

The suspension bolts should be 9/16" diameter as these are fairly standardized so if that's what you have I recommend the Wet Equalizer Bolt part #126B2.

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…

Yes, we do have the wet equalizer bolts you can use with the Equa-Flex Cushioned Equalizers. You will need #126B2. I have included a picture showing a typical installation of the bolts being used to secure the springs to an equalizer. Installation of…

You can use leaf springs that are rated higher than the axle without any issues as long as they measure the correct measurement for your trailer. For example the 6-leaf double eye spring for 7,000 lb axles part #e64SR measures 24-7/8" eye to…

The torque requirements for leaf spring u-bolts depend on the diameter of the u-bolts that are being used. If the gross weight of your tandem axle trailer is 7,000 lbs, then you likely have two 3,500 lb axles. Typically 1/2 inch diameter u-bolts are…

The MORryde X-Factor Crossmember part #MR33WR attaches to the leaf spring hangers which are located in-between and in the front and rear of each axle. I have attached a photo below to clarify. Therefore, you'll need three for full support on a…
