Great thread.. I was installing my EZ Flex just about the time that this thread was started.
Three suggestions..
Place large piece of cardboard or tarp under the work area. Pounding and banging to remove/loosen the old bolts will create a rain of rust & funk (Northeast & rustbelt) that you do not want to have to lie in during the assembly stage.
Test all of the wet bolts, I had one that the two drilled grease holes did not meet..had to run out to Dexter jobber for a replacement.
Place the bronze bushings in a tub of ice water, remove them just as you are ready to install.. dry & lube.. heating the spring eye a little helps even more..
Good thread..
On Edit: I placed my zerk fittings facing inward.. that way i can crawl under the trailer and lube it without pulling the wheels.
