The Equal-i-zer 14-3218 Snap-Up Lever is the OEM replacement tool for raising and latching the spring arms on any Equal-i-zer 4-point sway control weight distribution hitch. If your original lever is bent, cracked, or missing, this is the exact piece you need to get back on the road safely. Built from rust-resistant steel with a dimpled rubber grip, it gives you the leverage and control to seat sway bars quickly -- even when you're working alone at a campsite.
Equal-i-zer hitches use a unique integrated 4-point sway control design that requires the spring arms to be lifted and locked into their friction pads on both sides of the head assembly. Without the Snap-Up Lever, seating those arms is a two-person job at best. With it, one person can hook and lift each arm into position using a simple lever motion -- no hammering, no guesswork.
This replacement lever matches the original part shipped with Equal-i-zer hitches. The two-piece construction lets you break it down for compact storage in your tow vehicle or hitch bag between uses.
Breaks apart for easy storage in a truck bed, hitch bag, or cargo compartment. Reassembles quickly when needed at hookup.
Both the 1-inch diameter handle and 5/16-inch flat steel hook head are made from corrosion-resistant steel -- built to last in wet and road-salt environments.
The textured rubber handle provides a secure, non-slip hold in all weather conditions, giving you confident control when applying leverage to lift the spring arms.
Comes with the snap-up handle, hook head, and all required hardware. Drop-in replacement -- no fabrication or modification needed.
This lever is a universal replacement compatible with the full lineup of Equal-i-zer weight distribution hitches, from the entry-level 10,000 lb. capacity units up through the heavy-duty 16,000 lb. models. If your hitch uses the Equal-i-zer snap-up arm system, this lever fits.
The snap-up lever is a high-wear, high-stress tool. It absorbs the force of lifting loaded spring arms on every single hookup. Over time, handles get bent, rubber grips tear, or the hook profile wears enough to slip during use. Running a worn or improvised lever creates two real risks:
Replacing the lever with this OEM part ensures the hook geometry matches the arm pocket exactly and that full sway control engagement is restored.
Equal-i-zer Hitch manufactures this lever domestically. The steel components are USA-sourced and assembled, consistent with the brand's full hitch lineup. The 90-day limited manufacturer warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship from the date of purchase.
