R&P Knowledge Hub
In a slipper spring suspension system, the equalizer pivots at the center hanger bolt and distributes road impact between adjacent axles. Equalizer length determines axle spacing and directly affects suspension geometry.
Before ordering, verify spring width (2-1/2"), center hanger bolt diameter (1"), spring eye bolt diameter (3/4"), and center-to-center axle spacing.
