Is there a Lifespan for the Rubber Bushings in E-Z Flex Heavy Duty Rubber Suspension Systems
Question:
I installed a set of these in 2010 and wonder how long the rubber bushing lasts?
asked by: Paul S
Expert Reply:
Like most things, the longevity of the rubber bushings in the E-Z Flex Heavy Duty Rubber Suspension System depends on numerous factors including, but not limited to, how much the trailer is used and the weather conditions. But they should last a very long time in most situations if not the entire life of the trailer.
If you can compress the bushings by hand then they are worn out and should be replaced. Severe dry rot is also something to check for. It would have to be really bad dry rot though for it to affect the performance.
