RWsprage, Thanks, Our Ollie is a 2015 model. Believe Oliver started offering the EZ flex kit as an Elite II option during 2016. It's easy to clean & grease with a manual grease gun. My straight fittings are pointing out, some folks prefer them pointing in on their trailers. 45 degree fittings pointing out would be very easy to grease without crawling under the Ollie. Dexter recommends the pins to be greased every 3000 miles.

Good results on the kit! Was wondering if wet pins & bushing have been installed on a single axle Ollie before. This is a friend's kit we plan to install on their single Axle Ollie this fall. Will post a thread & photos about the installation.

Welcome and Congrats on your Ollie!!!!! Hope you continue to heal and enjoy the Ollie!!!!

Mike, Understand about folks that can't make it, so will post many photos!!!!! :)

Some folks use this ball joint press for the EZ Flex project on rv.net. This ball joint kit would make the job go easier pushing out old dry bolts, pushing in new wet bolts, and pushing bronze bushings in. I have several similar jobs to do, so purchased one of these kits. http://www.harborfreight.com/ball-joint-service-kit-for-2wd-and-4wd-vehicles-60827.html http://www.rv.net/forum/index.cfm/fuseaction/thread/tid/21609645.cfm
