Wet Shoulder Bolt For 2008 Forest River Wildcat 5TH Wheel Using Correct Track Trailer Lift Kit

Question

Question:

I am currently moving my leaf springs on my 2008 Forest River Wildcat fifth wheel camper to the bottom mounting hole and I am using the Correct Track LC87120 kit for the center equalizer mount since there is only one hole in this location versus the two mounting holes in the front and rear spring hangers for the spring eyelets. Since the plates for the kit make the equalizer mount wider, a normal shoulder bolt or wet bolt does not work in this location. Does E-trailer sell or know of a shoulder or wet bolt that will work in this location or do I just have to use a regular bolt?

The Replacement Wet Shoulder Bolt # LC126197 is 3-3/8" long to account for the width of the Correct Track Trailer Alignment and Lift Kit # LC87120. A typical Wet Shoulder Bolt # LC126238 is only going to be 2-7/8" in overall length.

Before replacing the wet bolt I would make sure that the hole on the zerk fitting is pointed sideways, as that might be why it's not taking any grease. If you do need to replace the bolt you'll need a 9/16" bolt that's roughly…
