FAQ
What is the OMEGP9?It is a two-pin greasable fixed-end service kit for compatible Old Man Emu leaf-spring installations.
Which leaf springs are supported?The current Old Man Emu catalog specifically lists EL049R and EL068R springs for this pin kit.
Is this a universal year-make-model part?No. Selection must be based on the exact spring part number and the complete vehicle-specific suspension application.
How many pins are included?The package contains two greasable pins, supporting the matching left and right fixed-eye service arrangement.
Are bushings included?No. The correct polyurethane bushings must be selected separately for the confirmed spring and vehicle application.
What maintenance equipment is required?Routine service requires a grease gun and suitable moly grease, along with normal suspension inspection tools.
Can the hardware be installed with an impact tool?An impact tool may be used only for disassembly where appropriate; final installation requires a calibrated torque wrench and the applicable service specifications.
Why use a greasable pin kit?It allows lubricant to reach the bushing contact area during service without removing the complete fixed-eye pin assembly.
Installation Instructions
- Confirm the installed leaf springs are EL049R or EL068R and verify the vehicle-specific Old Man Emu suspension instructions before disassembly.
- Securely support the vehicle and axle, unload the leaf-spring fixed eye, and inspect the hanger, spring eye, and matching bushings for wear or damage.
- Apply the specified bushing lubricant, install the matching bushings and crush tube, and position each greasable pin without damaging the grease passages.
- Install the captive-torque nuts and tighten all suspension fasteners with a calibrated torque wrench to the vehicle and suspension manufacturer's specifications at the required ride-height position.
- Install the grease fittings, apply moly grease until the contact surfaces are properly lubricated, check free movement and clearances, and re-inspect the hardware after the recommended settling interval.
