What Type of Bushing Comes with 4-Leaf Slipper Spring w/ Radius End for 2,000-lb Trailer Axles
Question:
Can I add a grease bolt to this? Is the sleeve of bushing metal or nylon? Just want to know if I should add a bolt with grease fitting or without. Also is there anything around sleeve such as rubber/poly like a normal press in bushing. Thank you.

Expert Reply:
The bushing that comes with the 4-Leaf Slipper Spring # SP-179275 is a nylon bushing like part # TRBU11566 so you need a standard non-grease bolt like part # 166079 for the installation. The nylon bushings are pressed in there by themselves without any specific type of sleeve.
