I spoke w/ Lippert and seems they changed things up. While they still have and sell the wet bolt kit, they now offer a Never-Fail bushing which is supposed to be vastly superior to the bronze bushing used w/ the wet bolt kit. The Never- Fail bushings are NOT compatible w/ the wet bolt kit and not sure which bolts would be used with them. If one buys a new Equa-Flex, the Never-Fails come std w/ it. Bronze bushings NOT sold separately! I cannot see buying 2 new Equa-Flexes just to get the new bushings. How long do the bronze ones last? Has to be much better then the plastic ones from factory.
I had mine lifted 2 years ago. At the time the dealer tried to get Lippert to replace the Equa-Flex because they were cracked, but I had to pay for them as Lippert said they did not use Equa-Flex on the that model at that time. Nice little Equa-Flex logo on the trailer. I got the wet bolt with the Never-Fail bushings.
They must keep changing things around over there.
