I had heard of a guy in brissy who had not done this and his move around a bit. Apparently you have to watch the grease nipple as well cause they rotate 360 degrees also.!?
He may not of had a tight enough hole! :lol:
Anyone had any dramas with the longevity of these things in leaf spring applications????? Mainly the nylon bush part I spose


I've had mine in for close to 8 months now and have had no probs, seem to wear well :D

Thanks ShortyMQ
Mine seem to be ok also and it is definitely better than the time frame that even top quality bushes gave up in my truck. They only ever seemed to last a very short time.
I am sure you have probably mentioned it elswhere, but what size orbit eyes are you using in your truck? Mine are the 70mm O.D ones
My only concern with my set up is that I am yet to get a half wrap made up so at the moment there is only the main leaf and then about a 2 inch distance back to the next leaf!
Hasn't caused dramas yet. Can you make up a leaf to suit if I gave you dimensions etc. I think I would feel a bit better with a wrap in place.
