I got looking at my axle photographs and the bushing Kit I have and discovered the top bushing on my EZ flex suspension is different. I cannot find any referance to servicing this top bushing. I like how this suspension works, so I am mot thinking of replacing. Yep we will see how long that lasts.

In the above material pay attention to the condition of a new rubber isolater and the top bushing. I have not pulled my suspension apart, but I suspect I may have som wear as I never lubricated the serks - did not know they were there, until just before the Alaska trip.
E-Trailer carry's them and I have an email into them on what can be serviced. https://www.etrailer.com/s.aspx?qry=013-144
Here are some photos of my current units - note the condition of the rubber isolater and center pivot bolt in the hanger, There is no hanger damage and I plan to install a x-factor cross member
Curbside
curb side cleaned up a bit - note rubber isolater wear
Street side
Note appearance of idolator cracking.
So thoughts - or should I just order a new set now and replace and then everything is new.?
Thanks Keith
