Bronze with wet bolts or never fail bushings?

I mentioned on another thread I purchased a project trailer. I plan on redoing the suspension while it's at the house. I have already ordered new tires, equaflex and shock kit's already. Trying to decide between wet bolts with bronze bushings or never fail bushings?

Project trailer is 2009 Keystone Hideout 30SRS

    That's what I thought as well but Never Fail advertise their's are better then wet bolts with bronze.


    They also advertise their frames are better, their axles are better, their awnings are better, their windows and doors are better, their furniture is better,etc, etc, etc, so on and so forth, you name it, it's all better.

    Unfortunately plenty of people can confirm it's not actually the case. I'd definatly go with the wetbolts and stay away from LCI. The bonus may be that on a 2009 Keystone the chances are pretty good it's on a frame made by Dexter or someone else, and not Lippert.
