Best front bushing kit??

[ShootToThrill]

Is there much of a difference between ulmers kit and BOP oilite bushing kits? I picked up a used 2013 Apex ER model. If i remember right the kit I put in my 2012 XTX from ulmer there was 2 spindle bushings that were the wrong size or something and I couldn't use them. This was 8-9 years ago and I've been out of the apex game since 2017. Been on a TD tuned winder 2017-until now. It's nice to be back!

I don’t think you can go wrong with either kit to be honest.
What brought you back to an Apex from a ‘winder?

2011-2018 Kits (specific to the EPS) come with all bushings except two of the spindle bushings, these bushings very rarely show any wear and are very large (they'd add $60 to the kit price due to the cost of the material).

In stock & available to ship.

I also have billet steering blocks with oilite bushings in them for the steering stem in stock and available to ship.

I suppose I miss the 4cyl sound and power steering. 20k+ for a new sled with PS is quite ridiculous. I only put 1500 miles or less on in a season, my 3500 mile years are done. The winder was a great sled but I think the apex is more my style now.

Bushing kit just came today. Thanks! Wish I would have seen the apex t-post for the lake effect riser before I ordered....
