Lippert Never Fail Suspension Bushings ???
Was researching the MorRyde Wet Bolt upgrade and came across this product, they take direct aim at wet bolts and the standard plastic bushings.
Never Fail Bushings
They offer a lifetime warranty and show an example they claim have 100,000mi.
Anybody have experience with these?

Kind of hard to believe. I love my MorRyde wet bolts and stronger shackle kit. Coming from Lippert, that makes me leery already. Which roads did they test on for the 100k miles? Simulator? Kind of like their strong frames used by most all manf., with inferior steel. "Best in the industry" if you watch all of their videos. Powder coated frames, that you'll find rusted all over on the lot. Hope I don't open a can of worms with that one. Aint hard to find a bunch on a google search from spring hangers to fifth wheel pin box structure to I-beam failures etc. I'm sorry, I'm opinionated, and don't care for Lippert. Although my rig rides on a Lippert frame, that has been helped by aftermarket parts I put on.
MorRyde hands down.
Maybe I'd try it on one of my cargo or other trailers just to see for myself.

I put them on last Spring. So far...so good but I would say they are still in the "testing phase" for me.

I have a set of them, just waiting on the mosquitos to quit biting to install them.

I'd like to know what they're made of, to NEVER fail, especially coming from lippert. $20 or so more for the MORryde wet bolt kit with shackles more than twice as thick. Greased once a year, the bushings, bolts or shackles won't ever fail either.

If nothing else, I'm curious. I've just dealt with MORryde for 13+ years with no failures with any of their stuff, so I've stuck with them. Love chatting with them on the phone as well.

Same here... Installed last spring. No problems, but only towed on short trips so far. Time (and miles) will tell.
