Want to Save Over $600 a Year?
Let’s Look at Savings!
It’s What the Trucking Industry is all About!
Long Life Bushing Assemblies replace OEM S-cams and have an average life expectancy of 7 years and will reduce the time it takes to perform annual brake maintenance to 3-4 hours. LLBA also keeps your S-cam in proper alignment to prevent premature brake pad wear caused by the typical S-cam and S-cam bushing as it ages.
TOTAL SAVINGS OVER THE LIFE OF LLBA
$3688
**These savings are based on actual costs and do not include lost productivity due to shop, repair or DOT out of service and/or fines for equipment that has failed DOT inspection.

Our transportation company switched to LLBA brake cam assemblies app. 2 1/2 years ago. Our company is saving time and money on brake cam servicing. Specifically, our greasing intervals have been extended from every 2 weeks to every 6-8 weeks. Had we not switched to LLBA, we would have typically replaced 3 sets of brake cam assemblies by now.
