Center Pivot Bolt, Greaseable, 7/8" x 4-17/32"
Precision-engineered greaseable pivot bolt designed for smooth equalizer movement and extended suspension life.
Overview
This heavy-duty center pivot bolt is the primary mounting point for utility trailer equalizer systems. Specifically designed for leaf spring setups, its greaseable architecture ensures that friction is minimized at the highest-stress point of your trailer's suspension.
R&P Service Insight
The equalizer pivot handles the majority of tandem or triple-axle suspension movement. Regular maintenance is the key to preventing "dry-lock" and hardware snapping.
- Movement: Eliminates "sloppy" or noisy suspension pivots.
- Maintenance: Integrated zerk allows for easy re-greasing without teardown.
- Load: Built to handle the repeated vertical and lateral shifts of a loaded trailer.
R&P Knowledge Hub
Compatibility: Explicitly engineered for use with the 007-001-00 trailer equalizer.
Vehicle / System Fit: Fits standard multi-axle utility trailer leaf spring suspension systems requiring a 7/8" diameter center bolt.
Installation Notes: Verify thread size (3/4"-16) and shoulder length (4-17/32") against your existing hardware to ensure a snug, safe fit through the equalizer hanger and bushings.
Performance Insight: Using greaseable hardware significantly reduces wear on the equalizer's center hole, extending the life of both the bolt and the equalizer itself.
R&P Repair Insight
Suspension hardware should be inspected annually for signs of ovaling, cracking, or severe dry friction wear.
- Inspection: Check for "grooving" on the bolt surface, which indicates it’s time for replacement.
- Fit Check: Ensure the bolt rotates smoothly within the bushing but has no excessive vertical play.
- Alignment: Ensure the grease zerk is accessible once installed for routine maintenance.
