Hi folks,
Been reading for awhile but first time posting.
I can't find bushings for center equalizer bolt. The bolt is 3/4 inch so I assume it has to be 3/4" ID 7/8" OD.
I was able to locate all other hardware I need on etrailer and they do carry bolts and equalizers like mine but see no bushings. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Click to expand...

Spring is 1.75 so they are too and should be Nylon as all spring bushing were.
Since I couldn't find the bushing for the center equalizer bolt right away this is the only thing still on the frame and I'm just guessing on the size based on spring width, bolt size and other components removed. The bolt is seized in the bushing and the whole thing has to be replaced but I rather leave it this way until I get the bushing than have unmovable trailer.
Thanks.

Re: Cant't find right size bushings

you are correct on the 1.75" by the sounds of it these are possibly Dexter Axle suspension parts.. See if you have any Dexter Axle dealers in your area, these arent a very common part for me at the trailer shop here in Mass but any dexter axle dealer should be able to get these bushings for you as i do have them listed in my book.. If you cant find them PM me with your info and we'll get in touch and get you some..

Good luck

It's discontinued Myco trailer with most likely Dexter Axle. Will see if I can get something directly from them. They used to have nice drawings on their web site with parts break down, not any more...
Waiting for email back from e-trailer customer service regarding availability...strange to see equalizer bar with 3/4" center bolt and wet bolt available but no bushing...$0.99 worth.

You might try searching etrailer's site. I couldn't find the equalizers I needed by browsing, but one of the people here found them for me with a google search. I know they carry equalizers for 3/4 bolts, so I'd think they'd have the bushings.
