I'm sorry - I forgot; but - it looks just like what you have posted here. What you have looks correct and looks like it should function appropriately.

Re: 86 1/2 ton shortbed Ebrake equalizer questions

i looked at the equalizer that come with the truck, and no bushing etc. in it, so looks like factory, it seems to be working fine, went thru the adjustment procedure ok

as always, thanks again Keith for your input!!!

thanks to all that posted

Kind regards
