I'm the new owner of a 2012 Passport 238MLWE. I was looking at the axles and springs and I noticed that there don't seem to be any zerk fittings on the axle spreader or the leaf spring shackles. I presume this is normal... do these things want or require periodic lube or are they some kind of slow wear bushing material that have to be replaced eventually?

No zerk fittings likely means Dexter plastic bushings. I just finished replacing the stock plastic bushings and dry pins for Dexter wet bolt kit with EZ Flex equalizer. The kit was around $160 and installation took me a good 10 hrs.
