Installation
Rear Equalizer (Between 2
nd
and 3
rd
Axles)
NOTE:
Support framework in accordance with manufacturer's recommendations.
NOTE:
When utilizing the Correct Track system, the shorter shoulder bolt will be used to install the rear
equalizer to the hangers. The cam plates are not installed on the rear hanger.
Reference Fig. 1 for the following procedural steps:
1.
Install the Road Armor into the hanger. Make sure the Road Armor label is facing outward.
2.
Install the equalizer bolt through the first bracket of the hanger, then through the topmost bronze
bushing of the Road Armor equalizer and, finally, through the second bracket of the hanger.
3.
Use a hammer or a piece of steel tube (for bolts with grease fittings) and drive the equalizer bolt into
the hanger. This will seat the serrations of the bolt against the hanger surface and provide resistance to
rotation when tightening.
NOTE:
The equalizer bolt must be installed from the outside in toward the center of the trailer chassis. This
ensures the bolt threads do not interfere with any other assemblies. This applies to bolts with or
without grease fittings.
4.
Install the nut onto the equalizer bolt until the nut seats against the shoulder bolt. Torque nut to 30-50
ft-lbs.
NOTE:
When installing the equalizer bolt nuts, use a wrench to hold the bolt heads.
5.
Repeat Steps 1 through 4 for opposite side of the trailer.
