Tavel Trailer springs and shackles
I have a question about the springs and shackles on my travel trailer. My trailer is a 32 foot and weighs about 8500. Back when it was new they used brass./bronze for bushings. All moving points ...

Unless you are putting a lot of miles on the trailer, most of that stuff should last almost a life time. I think the brass or bonze greaseable bushings would be the best way to go. Jack up a wheel at a time and give everything a good shake and check for any excessive wear every year or so. Make sure to grease it regularly and if any bushings dont take grease, try again with the weight off that joint or clean or replace the grease fitting
