Overview
This R&P Carriages GEB-78-KIT is a replacement wet equalizer bolt and castle nut kit for compatible trailer slipper suspension equalizers. It includes one GEB-78 wet bolt and one CN-78 castle nut, making it a useful service part when replacing worn, damaged, or seized equalizer pivot hardware.
R&P Service Insight
Equalizer pivot bolts carry heavy suspension movement and load transfer between the spring and equalizer assembly. When the bolt, nut, or pivot bore is worn, the suspension can become noisy, loose, or uneven under load.
- Pivot Wear: Inspect the bolt surface and equalizer bore for elongation, grooves, or heavy wear before reuse.
- Correct Sizing: Confirm the 7/8" diameter and 4-11/16" length match the existing equalizer hardware.
- Slipper Suspension Fit: Intended for many larger 11", 12", and 13" equalizers found on slipper suspension setups.
R&P Knowledge Hub
Compatibility: Designed for compatible larger 11", 12", and 13" trailer equalizers where a 7/8" diameter, 4-11/16" long wet equalizer bolt is required.
Vehicle / System Fit: Trailer slipper spring suspension equalizer pivot hardware.
Installation Notes: Verify bolt diameter, overall length, equalizer size, hanger/equalizer fit, and nut style before installation.
Performance Insight: Wet equalizer bolts are used in suspension pivot points where serviceable lubrication is desired to help reduce friction and wear in moving suspension components.
Brand & Fitment Note
Selling Brand: R&P Carriages
Application Reference: Equalizer and suspension references in this listing describe compatibility, fitment target, or application style only where measurements and configuration match.
What This Means: This listing is for an R&P Carriages trailer suspension hardware kit, not a guaranteed OEM-branded item unless specifically stated and verified.
Before Ordering: Verify measurements, equalizer size, suspension type, mounting points, nut style, grease fitting clearance, and included components before installation.
R&P Repair Insight
When replacing equalizer bolts, inspect the surrounding suspension parts at the same time. A new bolt will not correct a worn equalizer bore, damaged hanger, loose bushing area, or incorrect suspension alignment.
- Equalizer Check: Confirm your equalizer uses a 7/8" pivot bolt and is compatible with this 4-11/16" length.
- Nut Check: This kit includes a castle nut; additional locking hardware such as a cotter pin is not listed as included.
- Service Check: After installation, confirm the suspension pivots correctly and that the equalizer hardware is secured according to the trailer manufacturer’s service procedure.
