I decided to upgrade my trailer with a wet bolt kit and when I removed the first side this is what it looked like. Notice all the plastic bushings were absolutely destroyed. The bolt hole on the shackles are elongated and the top bolts all show extensive wear near the treads and head of the bolt. Trailstar needs to stop cutting corners and provide brass bushings instead of the plastic crap they're putting on the trailers. It's sad the hardware they put on these trailers! I will post an update once I get the new hardware installed. Based on my experience I would highly recommend replacing the junk hardware with real hardware.
