    Any hints about what kind of trailer? Eastern Marine would be my first try.
    If you have integrity, nothing else matters. If you don't have integrity,
    nothing else matters.​

    The bushings are pretty much standard. 9/16 id. x 11/16 od. 1 3/4 long. If your bolts are 9/16

    I saw in eastern trailer. They have the 1-3/4" long x 9/16"
    I think that is the correct ones I need.

    you need to tear it all down and measure everything and also check equalizers and all links for wear. you need to also replace all the nylock nuts and should replace bolts.

    I received my bushings today from Etrailer. (14 pack) of NeverFail Bushings part number 279685.
    This weekend i plan on replacing them. On the back of the package they have a picture of nylon bushings and the picture is a good representation of where mine are failing. I will post pictures of all of them when replaced.

    Thanks for posting this info! I just looked at this product and think this is the way I will be going vs the wet system I was looking at.
