I am having a wet bolt suspension kit installed (Dexter K71-448-00) on my 30SK. Come to find out the bronze bushings that came with the kit are too small (O.D.) for my Lippert leaf spring eye bolt holes. When inserted they areWAY too loose. I am having to special order new bushings (from another source) as the axle installer won't take the liability chance as they are. They would fit fine in a Dexter spring or any other spring but not Lippert. HMMMMM . Wanted to let others know if you are considering this. I wrote Dexter an email but have not heard back yet. At least I wasn't planning on going camping this weekend! Edited by: Stan

Stan, do you have the Trailair Equa-Flex? If so what all came with the wet bolt kit? Where did you get it?
I have been thinking that will be my next project.

No, I have the older style. If anyone wants to know, the kit came from Dexteraxle.com.

I did the trailair equa-flex mod about a 1 year ago best thing I ever did. The nylon bushings I took out had holes wore right through the sides of them. This in about 5,000 miles.
