Our outback came with the Trail Air "equa-flex" but no wet bolts. Wanted to add wet bolts, was ready to spend a weekend installing them. Talked to one of the local RV shops that does work on comercial trailers and they quoted 2hrs. labor to install a dexter HD shackle kit with wet bolts. Said they do quite a few. Figured 2hr. labor vs. at least a weekend of my work was worth the labor.
Dropped it late morning, picked it up the afternoon. Nice heavy duty 1/4" thick schackles and wet bolts. do enough of them with all the tools and it's probably pretty quick and easy. Well worth the 2 hrs labor rate. Give me another weekend to camp instead of working on the trailer.
